Anyone using a LAN isolator?


For those running an Ethernet cable to their streaming solution, whether Raspberry pi, nuc, streamer, etc, anyone using a LAN isolator? If so, what are the benefits and which one are you using?

Hi @mitch2 . Everything worked out very well with the manufacturer direct. As for impressions and comparison with other products, you can read below. Same username I have here and there. It’s a long thread that someone else started, you will notice my posts starting from #36 on March 2021:

I enjoyed reading your review on page #3. I can totally relate to your experience, it’s easy to discern the ‘naturalness’ and better separation along with drop in noise from a high quality switch. What was your observation once you grounded the Edison Silent OCXO switch to your Shunyata Everest CGS port? 

Thanks @lalitk .

As for the grounding to my Everest, I did not experiment much. Everest is there, along with extra port and extra grounding cables I had, so I put it there as it was from the start (simply replacing the previous switch with the new switch)

Thanks! I was curious as few others have reported positive results by grounding the Ethernet switch.

Try Acoustic Revive RLI-1GB-TripleC isolator and report back your results.
