Histoire de détendre un peu l'atmosphère à propos switch audiophile, un peu de hard data et de saine discussion :

Enjoy
oui, les conclusions de son test vont animer les discussions au coin du feu cet hiver :
"Measurements conclusively demonstrate that EtherRegen did not change jitter, noise or distortion of the DAC. It further had no impact on its clock speed, or output voltage.
What is that? You hear otherwise? Well, I tested it and there is no audible difference either. I suggest you repeat my test. If you do hear a difference, have someone switch cables behind your back. You can do this quickly, or wait days or weeks to switch. Just don't look and keep a log of 10 trials. If you can tell better than 8 out of 10 times that there is an audible difference with EtherRegen, then you have conquered the impossible!
Now, I am not beyond paying more for something if it looks better, feels better, etc. Unless you have an upset stomach and like to use the EtherRegen as a hot water bottle replacement (don't laugh, I have done that with my laptop!), there is no such benefit. Even if there were, I would not pay $640 for it. $100 maybe. But $640?
Needless to say, I absolutely cannot recommend the UpTone EtherRegen. It seems to be designed by people who a) don't understand the architecture of streaming audio and hardware and b) didn't bother make measurements of said flaws before going to fix them. A problem was imagined, and then supposedly fixed."
