DAC break-in question I am a true believer in “break in”. And you’re going to love that DAC! I had that in my second system and was blown away at the jump in performance when adding this to my system. What a great little DAC. Nothing comes close in that price range and... | |
An IEC with grip Totally feel you on this one. I have been very disappointed in many of the higher end power cables from Shunyata, Wireworld, and Synergistic. They do not trip well at all. In many cases I have had to place an object or 2 under the connection to th... | |
EtherREGEN or LHY SW-6? Anyone compare the 2? Thoughts/opinions? @maxwave I also spoke with Alex from UpTone and the Gen2 will be in very high demand and hard to get. It’ll sell out quick. The heat generated by the ER is what concerns me. Plus I don’t want to wait that long. Right now the Gen 1 is in stock and ... | |
EtherREGEN or LHY SW-6? Anyone compare the 2? Thoughts/opinions? @maxwave Thank you. Yes sometime in June I understand the ER G2 will be out. I think if I go with ER I’ll go with the original. @12many Thank you very much, also very helpful! Appreciate the honesty. I Speke with Alvin at Vinshine (customer se... | |
EtherREGEN or LHY SW-6? Anyone compare the 2? Thoughts/opinions? Thank you @audiom3. Very helpful! I was just about to pull the trigger on ER, like I said, but now I'm leaning towards LHY. I read about the 10, but unfortunately it's a bit out of range...Appreciate your time and advance my friend | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? @mclinnguy Thank you! I did see that Gen2 was in the works. Might wait for that one, though if there’s a jump in cost over the original not sure if I can swing it. But no harm in waiting I guess. But the EtherREGEN is absolutely the route I’m goin... | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? Hi, All! So after digging, reading, searching, comparing, and just as I was about ready to pull the trigger on the Silent Angel, while watching Hans' review I came across his review of the EtherREGEN. Decision made, I'm going with the EtherREGEN!... | |
Got Innuous, now a DAC Totally agree with @soix in adding the DDC. Adding the DDC to my Pontus was on par with when I added the Pontus. I was originally going to go with Iris, however I needed the flexibility for the additional inputs Hermes offered...Game changer addin... | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? @mclinnguy Thanks for chiming in, The Symphony does have its own power supply, but I am using an AQ power cable from the power supply into my Furman Elite PC. It did improve sound for sure, but I'm thinking if I add the switch and the SGC setup i... | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? Something else is that I also have an ADD-Powr Symphony in the chain. I was having some static issues when I introduced the Hermes. I removed it thinking that could be it. That wasn’t the case so I added it back in. Currently I have Ethernet cable... | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? @chipcalzone Thank you. Appreciate you sharing that experience. Being that the Optical Mod from SGC seems to make the biggest difference I’m leaning in that direction and going full in on that package with the power supply, converter, etc. that s... | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? Thank you @fastfreight. That is exactly my problem though is that once I hear it I can’t unhear it. This is exactly what gets me into trouble🤦🏼♂️🔫😂! | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? @trivema COMPLETELY agree about adding DDC to Pontus! I had a rough go of it getting off the ground (having some static issues and a bit of a rough go getting the combo with I2S nailed down), but once everything got straightened out I was floored!... | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? @fastfreight thank you for the recommendations. Unfortunately the switches you mention are too rich for my blood at this point…was trying to keep it under 1K, even less actually. @audphile1 I actually do need a switch. That’s what’s driven me do... | |
Power supply for ethernet switch? Thank you for the replies! That helps! @erik_squires I had read that before that these should not be on the same outlet/conditioner as the rest of the system. I had already planned to use a separate outlet for the switch/power supply. Love the PST... |
