Interesting! I did check out if the Devialet's ethernet input is galvanically isolated and it is. You can see the TDK tla-6t118lf pulse transformer in the lower left corner of the image below.
I'm wondering what the ethernet media converter could add more, especially if/when you use an unearthed ethernet cable. Maybe it's a "the proof of the pudding is in the eating" thing.
