I think on the one side you are removing connections (i.e. cables) between streamer and ADH, and that can only be a good thing.
On the other you are adding to the noise generated by digital electronics inside the chassis, in my mind this isn't such a good thing. (It's my personal opinion, I know many on here think this noise thing is simply my tinnitus playing tricks on me. )
Will be interesting to see how this see saw swings.
