Pimping your router


1. Use a wired router only
2. If wireless router is needed, separate router for wifi
3. only streamer, NOTHING ELSE connected 
4. use LPS to feed router
5. use shortest possible quality cable to streamer
6. use Acoustic Revive RLT-1 filter on spare router or streamer port
7. wrap router and LPS in EMI/RFI shielding material
8. use EMO EN70-HD filter near streamer for ethernet connection
9. use quality shielded cable between router and internet access point

All of these will individually improve your streaming SQ, in aggregate the effect is significant
Enjoy the music

(...since I use routers for wood frequently, I admit to 'pimping' both with under table lifts; that can to mind 1st, but wood butchers Do that. ;)...)
wrap router and LPS in EMI/RFI shielding material
Did you see “Better call Saul” the TV series? Saul’s brother was suffering from severe  EMI/RFI allergy and he used that  EMI/RFI shielding material all over his house. The guy even had to go totally analog to enjoy his jazz collection without allergic reaction :)


The EMO EN70-HD isn’t an Ethernet filter, just an isolation transformer, of which the router and streamer already has built-in as standard. The ENO Filter from Network Acoustics is a proper filter.
