Testing Ethernet switch


If you have bought an "audio" Ethernet switch, don't bother with this thread 

If you question Ethernet switches, here is one test of one brand.

All things physical that are measurable are not audible.

All things physical that are audible we don't always measure.

Sound and hearing are not the same. Sound is real. Hearing is a combination of sound our ears pick up and our subconscious combined. It is not objective. Not in humans. You may very well hear something and no one can tell you if you do or not, but it does not mean it was physical sound. 

It's statements like these that give sane members here pause. Your reliance on an insanity defense (accusation?) is really getting old. It makes one wonder just how familiar you are with it.

All the best,

nonoise,

What do you find as a factual fault with my statements?  So far, only opinions have been expressed along with less that forum cordial comments.   If I have made a factual error, please enlighten me. I try to learn something every day. 

If you find my comments old, you are free not to read them. As you seem to believe otherwise and rather than discuss where we disagree, you attack my comments with no supporting facts.  I am not going to change your viewpoint and don't care.  This thread was to help members who may not understand Ethernet not be taken for a ride.  Refer to my opening sentence in the thread or provide factual evidence where I am in error. 

I have made NO insanity defense.  Please do not make up things I have not said.  I This is not insanity, just part of what makes us human.   It would be a rather dull world if we were all perfectly objective. In anything. We aren't.

I don't know if they teach this in school any more, but:

If you want to stay only in the audio side, there are quite a few books on psychoacoustics. Search Amazon. 

I find it hilarious when people who have 0 knowledge about a topic attack people with knowledge. You can’t argue any thing about how it actually works, just what you “hear”. 
 

but facts remain, about 50% of people who don’t know anything about Ethernet, TCP/IP and streaming can “hear” a difference, while 50% cannot as evidenced by this thread and many others, and 100% of people with knowledge of the topic hear no difference.

This is what a randomized control trial would call placebo effect.

You two bozos, aka clowns seem to ignore facts and keep pushing your own crazy off the wall narrative.  You two have nothing better?  Is it a burning jealousy that you can’t hear or can’t afford a good stereo?  Do you two pick on videophiles as well telling them they only think they see a better picture?  How about RC hobbyists?  What kind of faults do you find with them, I wonder  

Keep it up.  Very entertaining.

I picture you two standing in the rain getting soaked arguing umbrellas are a fabrication for the gullible thinking they are staying dry
