Yep these devises are all about reducing noise not recovering lost or corrupted bits. I also tried the Pink Faun Lan filter and it didn’t make a difference on my main system but it did slightly improve my second system which also had optical filtering. Go figure, doesn’t always make sense logically and that is why you have to listen to one for yourself on your system. Especially if you are going to comment on a forum! Next up the Smooth Lan per ozzy’s recommendation. |
@antigrunge2 so educate me. RF noise affects all types of data. If that is the case, transmission of plain test files would be affected. You do know that no stream is transmitted point to point or as a complete file. Everything on the net is sliced, diced, and send in packets possible routed via different servers and switches. Noise may affect contents but then data is discarded and retransmitted. In no way receiver ever gets different bits than stored on the server. Router does not know if data is music, your kid game stream or your wife web browsing. Or should Amazon place an order for millions of silencers, cryogenic Ethernet cables for their data centers? They handle lots of music you know. That Tidal does not run its own servers. Amazon, Microsoft, Google. All on 1 cent Ethernet cables… how do they manage? |
