EtherRegen question

Hi, Bruno.  I clearly have no idea what I'm doing (I'm not being sarcastic), which is why I'm asking.  It sounds like I only need the ER from the wall to the server and then run my regular ethernet connection from the K40 to the X1.  Is that correct?  

2nd question... how does the ER compare to other filters?  Is this the one to go with?

Thanks.

The Melco has an Ethernet in and out. Melco>Etheregen>Bricasti M3. All Ethernet based.  No USB   Using Roon as a controller . Melco set up as a Nas .  Getting the benefits of Melco’s excellent filtering and the ER ‘s magic.

please google Uptone Etheregen. Go to their sponsored forum. You will learn everything you need to know. 

The ER is excellent for the Lumin X1. The ideal placement would be right before the X1 using the 'B' side of the ER as the final connection to the X1. If you observe the A-side/B-side isolation needed avoiding mixing power supplies and cables, then the end result will be a wide open soundstage with excellent transparency. You can push it even further with the addition of an external clock but you will never know the difference until you try it and it sounds great without one. I use the ER with the X1 and highly recommend it.

Good luck finding an ER though as it is no longer in production.

Thanks, guys.  I didn't realize that the ER was out of production.  I'm now looking at NA Muon as an alternative.   Thoughts?
