Aardvark Ethernet noise isolator

Ok all is intriguing and it will be interesting to hear about the performance.  Would there be any benefit to installing an ethernet noise isolator if you have an optical set-up like mine? Thanks

I think, (if these things do work), if you can reduce noise, it should be a sound improvement. Especially, if it is in the front of the chain.

in my experience the conversion to opticsl has its own issues leading to a grey, anodine sound. Certainly the converters lead high quality LPSs to get acceptable reults. I nevertheless ultimately stayed with Ethernet

Perhaps, but I have found it to really sound better, much more natural sound. However, my Lumin X1 can receive fiber direct without conversions.

So, I have fiber coming out of the Ether Regen to the Lumin, seems to be much better than when I used ethernet cable. At least with my set up.

Fiber optic definitely sounds better than without it on my set up as well.  I am using an LPS on both FMC’s but not on the router.  @ozzy It will be interesting to see if you hear improved results on your Fiber set up.
