Okay. It dropped again in a hi-rez track. I will try your internet solution. I can buy another mesh for $60. Just to make sure, your solution is to put the mesh close to the Meitner and hook it up with a short ethernet run with a good cable, right? The short cable I have is an Audioquest Pearl. Not the most expensive but audiophile grade, I think. I'll see if that clears up the network drops.
Does anyone have a digital system that is as involving as their analogue front end?
I have a good analogue front end. Not stratuspherically good but good enough for this comparison. VPI Prime Signature 21 turntable, Pass Labs XP-25 pono preamp, Pass Labs XP-30 preamp and Hovland Radia amp. It has a lovely, very involving sound. On the right recording, I just drop everythng and am drawn in to listen.
My streamer, on the other hand, is decent but not spectacular. It is better than my CD player, but it is not jaw-dropping like my analogue front-end. My question is this: does anyone have a high-end, tier-one streamer (dCS Bartok Apex, Lumin X2, or something like them) that can rival a good analogue system?

@audio-b-dog yes. The key is to position the nodes in a way that would minimize the interference by any type of obstruction. |
