Phantom 1 Wifi vs Ethernet?

[fabien44]

Not true! My opinion. What Jean-Marie wrote is correct! Fact: Phantoms receive the streamed music, either through internal PLC, Ethernet or WiFi and store it internally… and then play the received stream. For this reason independent of how you stream to the Phantoms all is equal for a specific protocol. What matters is which protocol you use. RAAT has best bandwidth, then comes UPNP, then AirPlay2, then Spotify connect or mp3. Optical input is worse than RAAT and UPNP. I made measurements of all these protocols and see the differences in bandwidth, mainly on the cut-off frequency of the different protocols when playing 96k/24 bit music or for measurements sine sweep functions.

Hello

thanks for your answer.
I plan to change to Spotify Hifi when it comes out. I will use MConnect protocol.
Do you think i will lose SQ because of bandwidth issue compare to RAAT?

In fact, my wifi performance testing:
- 40 Mb/s down
- 55 Mb/s up
- 5ms latency h 43,2 Mb/s
