And make singing along to soprano voices easier (but forget bass or tenor).
I would have thought more castrato…
I tried to say that a lot use decoupling, dac from streamer, from ps, from clock.
I was not talking about switches.
The First ones were Paul Pang and Sotm, the first high end switches from Korea.
Then Aqvox was inspired by them.
And finally Uptone ( USA), Melco ( Japan).
The English Electric is an ameliorated silent Angel from Germany ( or Denma).
High end professional audio switches have been around a long time, I believe long before these appeared. There are several network audio formats such as Dante and AES67.
The Yamaha SWR2311P-10G is one such device used professionally in high end audio, but I agree in the Hi-Fi consumer market the devices you mention are targeted at low complexity consumer Hi-Fi setups to help reduce noise coupling in connected hosts.
I bet I can guess what the next question is going to be…
Also Ravenna is another professional one.
You don’t need audiophile air, just turn your heating up. This forum has proved many times over that all you need is hot air.
Yes I forgot to add - I do this in my shed in my cottage garden with no special kit, sometimes I forget to put my glasses on too - so it must be good. All my products have great ameturerish appeal and nothing is tested as we despise measuring things - hence our slogan: we’re the ones who put the con in connection and people still buy them. I think the master stroke was the 4 figure price tag - no point looking cheap and tacky.
Don, I would respectfully say, based on my many years in Market Research, that most people may or may not agree with your assertion.
To quote from Reginald Perrin’s MR dept., who found that, 4% of Women in East Anglia had heard of their particular brand of Jelly, and may or may not purchase it! A pretty astounding finding, I think you will agree.
Nigel, I agree.
One of my favourite statistics is “95% of the people in the UK who died last year, had eaten tomatoes”
A classic case of correlation != causation.
Go get a fancy switch Don. You thank me later
I am fortunate and lucky to belong to the 0,00000001% of people in the whole planet to have an audiophile switch at home:rofl:
You will be another delusional in here
"re… We will be mates "
Like many others here, the switches and cables have all been well and truely sorted based on the usual mix of recommendation by my trusted retailer and personal listening. The dealer and manufactures sort out the technicalities and science and actually explain it to me. I think I mentioned this process a couple of weeks ago.
So, no need for “fancy” anything to be added.
But thank you for expressing your concern.
Yes, I think a few of us have commented that a sample size of half a dozen, ok lets increase that to 7 or 8, is a tad small from which to draw too many conclusions.
There is more than 7 or 8 …there is hundreds talking well about it - out of the NAIM forum.
Try it your self, then talk like you know
And for all those hundreds that do and hear an improvement their is also a hundred more that don’t and even more who don’t care about small tweaks that may or may not improve sq by a tad. I have tried many switches myself not supposed audio class ones granted but the recommended Cisco’s, but I have tried audio ethernet cables and found personally nothing to shout home about or any dramatic increases or decreases in sq. I just use cables now that are well built, serve their purpose and I have Unifi swithes as it’s easy to manage my network with them I can use PoE to power them and they have a very small footprint. I just play my music and dont worry about any of it.
