If you have Cat 8 Ethernet cable connecting your router and streamer, don’t use any galvanic isolators like EverStar MI-300, cause using it will depreciate protective porpoise of Cat 8 or Cat 7 cable Shilling. Any shielded cable connecting the ground plane between devices and braking up the shilling by galvanic isolator can cause noise.
Help optimizing my streaming setup
My streaming setup is pretty simple and sounds very good right now, but I'm wondering if I can do anything between the router and the streamer to make it better. I'm not interested in a DAC upgrade at this time. My virtual system is not up to date. The system is:
Verizon FIOS router>6 meter DH Labs Reunion Cat 8 ethernet cable>Aurender N100SC>Oyaide DR-510 spdif>DAC
Since I'm able to hardwire the streamer to the router, would a switch provide any benefit? I'm aware of the Eno that some of you guys seem to like and have been looking into them. Would an LPS for the router do anything? Is there anything else I can do?
