Audioquest Vodka vs Wireworld Starlight 8 (Not Platinum) Ethernet

And how is FMC better than ethernet cable?

This video is a "how to" but does not demonstrate or prove that inserting the FMC link does anything useful.  The speaker refers to "analog noise" but does not demonstrate or prove that such noise, which may exist, has any audible or measureable effect on the output of the DAC.

this is a hobby pursuing well reproduced music... no one is interested in proving anything to you, you are free believe what you want... the video is to inform the op

if anyone really wants to know, they should try it for themselves (as i and others here have)

what you put into the hobby determines what you get out of it

Not sure anything needs to be “proven” here. If you listen to people who’ve incorporated the Sonore Optical Rendu (among others) into their streaming chain they seem pretty universally thrilled with the results. I’ll take that over proof or measurements any day.

jjss49 posted the video in response to "And how is FMC better than ethernet cable?"  It did not deal with the question of how FMC is better than ethernet cable; it merely showed how to do it.

As for the popularity of the Sonore Optical Rendu, it is an Ethernet-to-USB convertor and not just an inserted optical link.

And, yes, the question would better have been answered by user comments.
