In Reply to: RE: Network Switch. This can't work. But it does???? posted by ejk on November 16, 2023 at 07:12:20:
It's so easy. You buy the switch for $20 or less, and connect it to your router. Then move your streamer's Ethernet cable to the switch. It's an unmanaged switch so it all works automatically and instantly. No special setup or cables needed.Make sure you use a SHIELDED Ethernet cable between the switch and your streamer. Which everyone should do anyway.
And, lastly, you need to replace the switch's very small, very lousy 12v SMPS with something better. How much you spend on this is up to you. One of the cheapest decent "audio quality" power supplies is the IFI PS. Just get the 12v model. Amazon has them for $69 but they are available cheaper elsewhere sometimes, too. They sell these in a number of voltages - make sure you get the 12v supply.
If you try this, all in you'll have spent less than $100. So, it's a very low cost experiment. If your system is like mine you will hear an fairly substantial improvement in streaming sound quality.
