Jad, you are feeding your dac by toslink/optical cable. My dac gets hooked to the server by Ethernet. Supposedly, by converting the standard Ethernet to Optical cable you break any noise that rides on the Ethernet cable. I'm skeptical over a short distance. I was inquiring what people more knowledgeable than me about networking, think about this concept.

- Yes, optical for long runs. For noise isolation, there's that EtherREGEN thingy. - Dave_K 07:45:45 03/03/21 (1)
