Dang it! Just checked my amazon history when I bought the fiber optic bridging gear. Prices have dropped by about half! Anybody streaming should do this tweak, you have no excuse now! Dramatically improves sound. Oh and I did get cat 8 Ethernet cable.
Just installed a bluesound node 2i , quality not so good
Sounds flat vs streaming from marantz 5014 heos, which is more revealing and open. Both ways are wired.
Is there a break in period? Otherwise it is disappointing.
I am listening thru b&w spkrs and mcintosh amp. And wired to analogue inputs of avr
thanks for any comments, suggestions

Pretty funny what goes around...lol Back in the 90,s we were using fiber optic comms for industrial usage, I liked it a lot as no noise, the "wiring" could be routed anywhere even 360 degree loops etc with zero issues. The programmers say it did not allow enough heavy duty information exchange as Profibus and then later Profinet so we ditched it and moved on. Canbus that you now find in cars( for a few years actually) was basically Profibus that we started with in the late 90,s, early 00,s . Profinet is really just a variation of ethernet. Now it is showing up as the latest audio "darling" Pretty interesting tbh. Good luck. |
