    Good mid-price audiophile switches

    Indeed superior clock(s) will definitely enhance the audio performance (darker background, more pronounced sonic performance at low volumes, better bass definitions, more 3-D bass, better sound staging, etc).

    Good mid-price audiophile switches

    I share the same thoughts of wanting fewer boxes and having less clutter. Hence I am holding back from purchasing a good LPS (Super3/Hypsos/JR-2) for the eR, while considering possibilities.

    Good mid-price audiophile switches

    Thank you for Sharing, Magnuska. As the eR is relatively warm and am also looking to simplify my system (switch and ps in a box), am pondering the possibility of switches from N&E Audio and aDark.

    Have anyone done any comparison between N&E Audio Silent Switch OCXO and the AFTERDARK Project ClayX Giesenmann Network Switch X OCXO 10M Master Clock?

    Optical Fibre Cable for Finisar FTLF1324

    Where I am based at the moment (Shanghai), Finisar is easily available. The uncertainty of the freight delivery lead time as well as the import tax are not making the SFP and Sonore Cable options very attractive. So far so good with the finisar and Belden combination.

    Sonore Signature Rendu SE (optical vs non-optical)

    The reason I am asking this question is that I have recently chanced upon a used set Sonore Signature Rendu SE (non optical). Wondering if the sound quality difference will be significant. Nevertheless, thank you for sharing, Afveep & Lxgreen.

    Hi all, As this is the first time I am meddling with a network switch, would like to verify with everyone here if I am setting up the eR correctly. The reason am asking is that switching between before and after, I don’t hear any differences. Have I connected wrongly? Advices are appreciated...
