Do I really need an " Audio Grade Network Switch "?

spend the 700 bucks for a REGEN and see for yourself. If you don’t like it, it will sell in a matter of hours here on AG.

 

Wonder what this great switch is supposed to do. Will it send more bits? Or less bits? Or bigger bits? Or warmer bits? Or cleaner bits? Or?

Uptone has a money back guarantee. Unlike the smartass who sits and wonders then makes a snarky comment about something they have no experience with  that adds nothing to the conversation, I have tried a variety of such devices including a variety of USB and ethernet reclockers so I at least have a basis for comment. I tried the Regen and returned it as I did not hear a difference.

I currently use a Mutec mc3+ USB to convert USB to AES because I do hear an improvement when I feed my DAC via AES rather than USB. I am not saying this is a universal truth, but it works for me.

unfortunately this type of thing happens way too often on this board

smart asses without knowledge or experience, just talking sh*t - truly lame 

talking sh*t is available as an option for folks who don’t have $640 to spend, even for a product with a money back guarantee

usernames, faceless identities are free

So, what is it supposed to do?

Well, lets go in to the nitty gritty.https://audiophilestyle.com/forums/topic/62477-john-swenson-tutoring-paper-considerations-regarding-usage-of-external-reference-clocks-etherregen-and-other-sine-vs-square-impedance-cables%E2%80%94and-a-money-saving-surprise-at-the-end/

I'll go for a LPS or iFi iPower to the modem & router will do the job on better signal. Much cheaper than network switch.
