"Audiophile Grade" Ethernet Switches - The new generation

[GuillaumeB]

 At least until the etherREGEN is out and compared.

Very wise move Antoine... been following the etherREGEN on the other forums and it does look very interesting. John Swenson's hypotheses regarding leakage currents and clock phase noise on ethernet networks are very interesting. I'd like to think that the SOtM will still hold its own but things are moving so fast it's just impossible to say! I continue to be surprised by how much better the sNG-10G is to the AQVOX, where perhaps the AQVOX's impact was more subtle but certainly noticeable, the sNG-10G is more of an instant wow! It's a slippery slope though and I'm now left wondering about adding a master clock and even a second SOtM!!! I'm sure I read somewhere that the effect of daisy chaining a second sNG-10G was greater than adding a 10 MHz master clock to a single switch.

Perhaps the etherREGEN is a much safer approach after all... still I am enjoying myself a great deal at the moment! 

Cheers,

Guillaume
