Tweaking Etherregen


Two tips for Etherregen users: other than using good power and ethernet cables, ideally with a 10m clock:

Always run a separate ground wire, it really matters

Stick an Akiko Audio 3D tuning chip on top of the B side low noise section (0n the casing, not the board). It is located between the ‘clean’ RJ45 socket and the ground lug. (akikoaudio.com, €59).

 

Let me know how you get on.

I ran a quality solid copper wire from the EtherRegen ground terminal to an AC outlet via a plug with only the ground connected. Surprisingly, it did increase resolution.

I replaced the ground wire/AC plug with a Puritan City Ground Master.
