Glad to know which path and components are preferred by members around here.
In my case:
Innuos Statement Next Gen with Sense App
USB Pro - Pro ISL connection (hope soon directly via new Pro ISL output module) - with STEALTH Dual Tune USB cable
NA Muon Pro filter - with Pink Faun Ethernet cable
NA Tempus switch - with STEALTH Ultra Ethernet cable
Dedicated router only for the system via fiber wire from the external of the house
All power cords STEALTH
This will be interesting to get more feedback on sources. One of the more diverse topics for us.
Hi, from router I go into a telegartner switch then into Dual pink faun ultra servers with a usb output into a skogrand usb cable into pro usb then a 20mtr fiber optic to the select digital director, it’s great having the flexibility to have the servers in another room to avoid clutter.
I love hearing the fiber distances getting used like this, glad to hear you are taking advantage of it!
Hello,
For my streaming from Qobuz and Tidal, i have from the internet service provider’s fiber cable connection to home Router to Intel NUC-11 (with Roon Rock installed for Roon server and player) via a Jorma Reference Ethernet cable, then from USB output via Jorma Reference USB cable to MSB Pro USB module, then 25 metres of fiber optic cable to the Pro ISL module on the Cascade Digital Director in the listening room. The Intel NUC-11 mini computer server/player is located in a closet behind the listening room where the home router and electricity breaker box is situated.
I have been using this streamer/server setup for my previous Premier DAC, then Reference DAC.
Great topic!
I’m using first gen Sonore gear (I’ve had it before purchasing my wonderful Premier DAC): Sonictransporter i5 streamer ethernet to the optical converter fiber optic to the opticalrendu connected to the Pro USB with a Cardas Clear USB cable.
The existing set up has two conversions to optical which I’m not sure is necessary and am looking to simplify and upgrade. I’ve been looking at the latest versions of the Sonore gear (opticalrendu deluxe and sonictransporter i7 from Small Green Computer and the Auralic Aries G2.2. Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated!
Best, Larry
