Uncle D, if you are going to try a quality ethernet cable I suggest an Audioquest Cinammon. It's not real expensive and it made a noticeable difference to me (over generic) that I liked.
Ethernet Cable or Not?
Hey everybody,
Thanks in advance for your guidance.
I use an inexpensive WiFi receiver to send a signal to a Schiit Dac, then to my Integrated.
The wireless signal never lags/buffers, but sometimes music sounds better to me than others. Very well could be in my head, tinnitus intensity, etc.
Line of sight to my router is approximately seven feet, and a ten foot cable would do the job and for the most part be hidden.
Is a wired connection between a router and WiFi receiver the way to go if one is possible? Or if I’m not having buffering should I let it be? (I don’t own a cable to try but can pick one up if it’s likely to help of course.)
Thanks for the help!
