While I don't dispute the improvements folks are hearing with EtherRegen, are there any measurements with the device that help substantiate the sonic gains that are claimed? Surely they must be measurable?? Reduced distortion etc?
Uptone EtherRegen
Has anyone tried the Uptone a Audio EtherRegen? I just got it delivered, hooked it up between my ethernet connection and my Bridge II on the PS Audio DS DAC. This device reclocks and cleans ups the digital signal. I’m fairly stupid when it comes to all things digital but what I’m hearing is a huge difference. There is an immediate improvement, lowering the noise floor to reveal clarity. The bass in tight and powerful. My first impression says it’s worth every penny of the $640.

Just curious, anyone read this review which basically says it does nothing? |
@discopants your reading of the comparison on WBF is wrong: "(some guys in Hong Kong have done some listening tests and they prefer 2 SoTM fully loaded switches in sequence as a reference hifi switch but the cost of that is about 5 times more than Etherregen.)" This has also been misquoted on the CA forums https://www.whatsbestforum.com/threads/sotm-snh-10g-network-switches-x2-the-new-king-of-usb-network-... They unequivocally preferred the single SoTM to the single ER. They also preferred 2x SoTM’s to 2x ER’s. It was clear that the SoTM was the superior switch by far albeit at more than twice the price of the ER. "2. However there was no miracle. All attendees of the gathering, including me myself thought that the SOtM switch was still significantly better. This was not unexpected, because the SOtM was several times more expensive. 3. Single SOtM was better than a single ER (no matter unclocked or clocked). 4. For dual switch format, the sonic performance was SOtMx2 > SOtM to ER > ERx2 (no matter unclocked or clocked). Actually we didn’t like ERx2." For the record, I do not use nor intend to get either switch nor am I shilling for either. |
