WiFi Streaming Versus An Ethernet Cable Connection


Hey All,

I have a fairly new Bryston BDP 3 streamer/renderer. I haven't been all that happy with the sound of streaming on Qobuz. However may local files on my SSD sound astonishing. The router I'm using is standard for 500 GB but it's nothing special. I'm currently connected to my BDP 3 with a utilitarian 7 cat ethernet cable. Instead of buying a better modem/router and audiophile ethernet cable, I'm considering Bryston's WiFi dongle. Anybody familiar with wireless HiFi streaming? Thanks!

WiFi works fine you just have to make sure you have strong connections  

Fiber optic break in a direct wired Ethernet connection. Easy to do, and cheap. I listen to quobuz and it’s as good as my local files. 

There is a thread recently in the digital forum titled

I have perfected my network for the nth time.

It should give you several ideas to think about.

Best of luck and happy listening.
