" Stray currents and noise do travel along conventional Ethernet"
That's why the Ethernet standard requires transformers at each end for isolation. Transformers are very good at generating and receiving differential signals while providing high common mode noise rejection. This makes them an excellent combination with twisted-pair wiring.
Just a thought.... If optical network coupling provided noticeably better audio quality from a streamer you would think that more manufacturers would incorporate optical. IMHO, it's mostly marketing and a way for some companies to differentiate their product.
Just my 2-cents worth as I can't argue with what other people hear or think they hear.
