let me know what you think.
And if it works out for you, there is a rabbit hole you can go down

and down the rabbit hole I go. I went ahead a made the purchase.
Never have i experienced such an improvement for so little money.

I never set it up. I am out of outlets for the power. I will have to check it out another time
P.I.:
Fiber optic cable has come so far! I remember the original plastic Toslink cables: take the cable and wad it up in your hand, play a track and simply release the cable to hear the instruments shift mightily in the soundstage and the timbral balance shift.
Next: AT&T glass fiber
And here we are.
Transmitting data over a network is much more efficiently done via optical. There is a lot of VHQ glass optical bulk cable out there. There are a few stellar termination connectors. Shaxon connectors are very, very good. Use an optically clear epoxy. Cleave and clean. Clean again. Polish to a sub-micron finish. Clean and clean again. Cryogenically treat. Repolish. Clean, clean, clean...
Find a company that does that or contact NASA to see if they'll do some audio terminations for you. 🤣
Fork up $3000.00 per termination.
Music? Oh. It usually sounds better over very high quality copper. Why? I'd have to kill you.
Rock on... :thumb:

High quality copper rules! Absolutely!

here's a nice video demonstration.

Still need a quality ethernet cable to go from the Opticalmodule to your streamer.
for example:

Emil, I sent you a PM. I hooked this up today and now my laptop cannot find my Node on the network. I though this is just plug and play?
