Question to all Etherregen users

[anan]

Team,

Quick report on the Melco vs EtheRegen in my system.

Although I had very high hopes, and invested a lot with a super optmized set up including:
- a Cybershaft OP21A-D super clock (some claim is the best on the market)
- a very high end clock cable (Shunyata Sigma)
- a 3D printed aluminium heatsink I designed myself,
- a high end grounding cable

And although I love dealing with Uptone...

The Melco with the Uptone LPS-1.2 is just clearly better in my environment. After replacing it back I got back to the amazing flow, transparency, naturalness and un-digital sound I had somehow lost with the EtheRegen.

I tried various combinations (removing the clock,...) but the Melco + LPS always ends up being the clearly better option. And that is with the same Ethernet cable (Shunyata Omega).

I’ll probably send the EtheRegen back to Uptone if I find the time to have it checked because the result is both surprising and disappointing to me considering how much I invested.

Fortunately the clock will be used to drive a Mutec once I get the right LPS for it in a few months.

Cheers,
Bernard

Hi Bernard,
Did you ever try chaining your clocked ehterregen -> Melco s100 or the other way round (with / without fiber). Would be interested to know if there any upside in keeping both in a chain.
thanks
