iFi LAN iSilencer - LAN Signal Noise Filter - Remove Electrical Noise - Ethernet Isolator for Hi-Res Audio Systems (RJ45)

Difficile à dire s'il y a vraiment une différence car j'ai un autre filtre avant de passer par celui là un multi-connection. Je pense qu'il est conseillé de ne pas mettre un câble trop rigide sinon le bout du filtre (rj45) se décolle facilement après un certain temps ! Personnelement je trouve le plasque un peu léger pour le prix !

Excellent noise filter. Improved transmission.

ネットワーク・オーディオを始めましたが、LAN関係にはあまり手を入れていませんでした。 今回、fi audio LAN iSilencerを導入したところ、音質、S/N比が驚くほど向上したので、再度購入しました。とても良かったです。

I ordered the iSilencer because, after adding ifi devices to my SoTM SMS-200 streamer, I still had the feeling something was missing. The ifi psu, re-clocker and DC filter each made improvements, So I guessed the iSilencer would do something. The only question was how much and would it be worth the cost? The quick answer is yes! I purchased the iSilencer for my headphone system but first tried it on my Firetv cube. The result was better sound, colour and image. I found myself watching the Ultra HD remake of Roadhouse thirty minutes into the film when I only intended to watch a few minutes. Next was the streamer. Again, I was almost through a whole album when I only intended to listen to one track. As much as I hate hi-fi cliches, an invisible veil did seem to be lifted, allowing me to hear details previously missing. I’m guessing this was caused by electrical noise in my switch. Oddly, I had previously tried replacing the supplied psu’s of the router and switches with ifi psu’s, assuming I would see or hear some improvement in either TV or hi-fi. As nothing seemed to change, I guessed the problem was elsewhere in the chain. It seems the switch was the bad boy after all. The moral of this story is, the 'bits-are-bits' myth falls apart in the real world and I need to order a second iSilencer for my Firetv cube. ***** UPDATE ***** I had to reconnect the iSilencer to my Amazon Firetv Cube because the image on the TV screen looked a little blurred after removing it to connect to my streamer. There was no choice but to order another iSilencer. As it has been connected to the always-on Firetv Cube for nine days, I had the opportunity to judge what impact burn-in has made. Taking the nine-day-old iSilencer and plugging it into my streamer, I was surprised to hear much deeper and wider sound stages on most tracks. Also, more reverb has been revealed and that gives clues to the recording space used. The 1977 debut album, Fanx Ta-Ra by Sad Cafe, always sounded poorly mastered to my ears. I have it on vinyl and CD and both sound thick and congested. The iSilencer helps a little by opening out the sound stage a little. I suspect the CD version sounds better because jitter introduced by the switch has been removed. For me, this has been a worthwhile upgrade. Some claim to hear no improvement at all, so I think it probably comes down to how resolving your system is.

Prodotto di qualità. È assai utile per migliorare il flusso audio qualora non si disponga di una porta ethetnet a bassissimo rumore e con isolamento galvanico. Il miglioramento è palpabile e udibile. Agisce da filtro e non altera il suono rendendolo più audiophile. Io l'ho collegato direttamente ad uno streamer secondario nella porta ethernet in entrata. A mio avviso si sente meglio che collegato alla porta ethernet in uscita del router. Consigliato in tutti i casi i casi in cui non si disponga di una porta ethernet a basso rumore. Buono anche per il video ma non come per l'audio.
