are NET Switches worth considering?

@marco1 I have an opportunity to purchase a demo. My setup is quite revolving with the Pulsar but I always wondered how much more I can get out of the Pulsar with this added switch. Doesn't the Innuos Statement incorporate both the Phoenix NET and USB? And if I'm not mistaken the Pulsar is a light version of the Phoenix USB? So adding this NET switch with it's own power supply should be an upgrade, no?

How much is it ?

for much less. Stack audio has a pretty good one  , under $3k I’d plenty 

how much is the innuos Ethernet switch ?

Check this out, ihav3 the lhy sw8  the 10 is better, and optical I feel takes some life out of theSound ,see review ,Innuos is here also,

if this is a demo from the local dealer ask dude to let you throw it in your system for a day.

@marco1  I forgot to mention about my experience with USB cables.  You areCorrect about cables. I'm using an Ansuz X2 USB between  my Innuos Pulsar and Accuphase DC-37 Processor/DAC. I was initially using this Ansuz between my Innuos Pulsar and McIntosh MA12000 integrated amplifier.  Not too long ago I purchased an Audience FrontRow USB and after 500 hours I removed it and reverted back to my Ansuz!  With the Ansuz music came to life- PRAT, detail,  imaging,  3D, incisivness behind the notes. Night and day cables! I then got a custom Furutech power cord made for my Innuos Pulsar and the unit  sounds bette with more authority. So yes,  I'm a believer in cords.
