No, I do not think that is impossible. johnnydev is talking about streaming from the internet. This is going via the Cisco cable modem. He states that there is less difference using an improved PS on the switch where the actual audio devices are connected. Phantoms are quite revealing and an improvement is easy to hear. Changing the PS of the Cisco (remember this is a switching PS possibly injecting garbage back to the power circuit) is maybe not the most place obvious for improving the sound of a system, but johnnydev is reporting an it and I trust he is right.
Yes that’s right. The switching powersupply’s seems to give al lot garbage on the powerline’s and the ethernet side.
It is not so usual to use these sbooster on modems or routers, they use it normally for upgrade DAC’s and NAS etc.
I ordered them with a trail period of 14 days.
I was very surprises at the unexpected and big improvement with SQ of the phantoms with qobuz and on my tv with Netflix 4K.
I had already several times contact with Netflix that there 4K was not really 4K. After installing the sbooster my complaint was completely gone.
So then i ordered with a trial period of 14 days for the router and the switch.
The effect on the router was again quite large, somewhat less than the internet modem, but very good noticeable.
The effect on the switch is small, but has got the benefit of the doubt. Certainly because i do now not have any switching powersupply in my internet system!
And as told before, in the last 40 years i never had a great upgrade like this and i can tell you i had a lot.
This is not a placebo effect or something and i am not blind or deaf :-)
Maybe it’s my situation here at my home, but here the differences are so big that i wanted to share that experience with phantom lovers.
I would say, try it for 14 days and then judge. What can you lose
