+1 @audphile1 on the passive filter. I have a Muon in each of my systems and a nice improvement! In one of them I also still have the Ether Regen in front of the Muon. It adds, but not as much as the Muon.
Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System vs SGC Optical Isolation System
Has anyone directly compared between the two? If my conversion isn't off, it looks like the Eno Streaming System is roughly $1,000 compared to the SGC Optical Isolation System at $350 (sale) w/linear power supply.

Optimizing FMC isn't as simple as one may believe. There is generic route via switching power supplies, generic with one or two lps. Then there is the Sonore route via upgrading FMC (two OpticalModule) only or FMC and optical streamer, these can be powered via various quality LPS. And then we can upgrade Sonore products with this, https://audiophilestyle.com/forums/topic/62352-finisar-sfp-modules-for-audio-grade-network-switch-group-buy-for-audiophilestylecom/ My next experiments will include Finisar SFP industrial grade and optical cables.

@sns that is exactly what I did with this affordable LPS that can accommodate providing power to both Optical converters. Actually, it was really simple. Also having a kick ass DAC and Innuos Zenith helps.

@jerryg123 At some point need to try the Sonore products, your streaming setup should provide the necessary resolution/transparency to hear improvements vs generic. I did use generic for couple years with no complaints, it is effective and certainly huge value for what it does. The Sonore is worthwhile upgrade, as it should be for the price increase vs generic. |
@sns maybe after the silly season. I am taking it under advisement my friend. Cheers. |
