| Tweaking the network, surprising results… I have got my Draytek 2860 router on a Zerozone LPS with an Add Powr Eau2 power conditioner, both on a separate power branch from the system off the main board. choice of power- and DC-cables matters equally. Ideally the router needs to be at lea... | |

| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? @vinylfan62 +1, especially when combined with an Etherregen upstream | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? @nyev, you are spot-on. It does though irk that innuOS makes you buy two power supplies and 2 clocks for more or less the same purpose, doesn‘t it? And adding the $6-7k to the DAC budget might have significant benefits as well… | |
| Best Stereo Upgrade Value All other things equal start on cleaning up the power | |
| WA-Quantum GmbH's Quantum Chips Totally agree. i have had good results from the signal and power cabples as well as fuse and capacitor stickers. Particularly usefull in the fusebox | |
| Holo Audio Titanis A good ocxo clock alone is in excess of $5000. Not many dacs have those inside…Also, the actual DD/AD conversion needs superior clocking as well, it isn‘t just the USB clocking. Good clocking is crucial digital audio. | |
| Holo Audio Titanis The Phoenix in my mind is a bit of a kludge: rather than improving the overall clocking of the Dac and by asynchronous USB the connection and slaving to the server it only addresses the latter. Reclocking the Dac is more powerful, that’s the route... | |
| Uptone Audio LPS-1.2 Failures Lots of complaints here without stating whether Uptone support their products. This thread seems malevolent. Products have a warranty and only if the vendor didn‘t support its products would that be newsworthy. | |
| cheapest cable upgrade ever Finally got around trying this on my BNC clock cables as well: works! having done all signal and clock cables now I feel I get much better impulse and spatial rendition | |
| cheapest cable upgrade ever Dear all, on RCA, digital and ethernet: batteries close to the signal target with battery ‘-‘ to the source. On speakers: close to the speaker withsignal side with ‘-‘ to the amp, return with ‘-‘ to the speaker | |
| cheapest cable upgrade ever Definitely not on fibre. maybe on the router access? Or do you use fibre there too? | |
| Streaming Sound Quality - Want the very best sound quality? Network Acoustics ENO... My point is that consumer level cd players distort, pretty sure that Qobuz has direct streaming access from servers. |
