octaviars Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 @warpeon I dont think you will get much answers right now from @Superdad as the product is still in development. As the clean port is supposed to feed the streamer it should be placed right before it. In my system I would go from router to etherregen and connect my NUC with Roon ROCK on the dirty side of the etherregen and my SOtM sMS-200ultra on the clean streamer port. I think it is easier to get a PHY chip with 10/100 cleaner than a 100/1000 but that part will perhaps be explained when more information is coming out. I suppose the SFP is for them that wants to get totall galvanic isolation between two networks. I think that Alex wrote the LPS-1 will power it.

Because of this it is a BAD idea to place the switch right in with your audio equipment. You want to keep it somewhat away from the audio system so noise from the upstream cable doesn't get picked up. If the upstream cables uses your ground solution (JSSG) will the radiated noise still be a problem to consider in a system?

A Nucleus is no more server/streamer than a regular NUC. There is nothing special going on with the USB output on a Nucleus that is USB straight out from the NUC board. Before I bought a SOtM sMS-200ultra I run my NUC as server/streamer to my DAC. Roon built and sells the Nucleus for those who do not wish to build a NUC with ROCK them self and it is mounted in a passive chassi no more no less. This got OT. The thing with a etherREGEN is to isolate the endpoint/DAC from all the stuff going on in the network with servers, NAS, routers and so on. I think many will find all sorts of connections sounding best. Ethernet gizmos cleaning up things is the new thing, just look at all the stuff selling to clean up USB R1200CL 1 Main system TAD D1000mk2, TAD M2500mk2, TAD CE-1, Ansuz Mainz 8 C2, Ansuz Darkz D-TC, Qobuz Studio -> Roon ROCK on NUC -> Uptone etherREGEN -> dCS Network Bridge -> AES/EBU -> DAC HD Plex 200W PSU (4 rail for ISP fiber, router, etherREGEN and NUC) Second system Qobuz Studio -> Devialet Silver Phantom, Devialet Tree Link to comment

So we will look forward to reports comparing our switch to FMCs. We honestly do not know how significant the difference will be for how many of you. But my personal experience with FMCs versus even the special Cisco Catalyst (that @lmitche turned me on to) suggests many folks are in for a treat. I have a Ubiquity router with SFP port that I plan to feed a etherREGEN with, got two 1310nm SFP and Corning Clearcurve single mode fiber waiting for the switch. Connect my NUC with ROCK to one of the gigabit ports and use the clean one to feed my SOtM sMS-200ultra Neo, I hope that this will be a good solution with galvanic isolation from the rest of my network in my house and all of the equipment in my stereo only connected to one power circuit.

The external clock dont have anything to do with cable length of a fiber run they can be many miles long without any problem. The clock signal from a master clock that often is a hi frequenzy signal in most audio cases a 10MHz signal that has to pass through lots of connectors and cables will fast be degraded and not so exact as it has to be. Some DAC manufacturers would never consider building something with a external clock for example MSB Tech or EMM Labs and many more (my own TAD D1000 mk2 DAC has a very precise clock mounted directly besides the DAC chip). This is Ed Meitner from EMM Labs thoughts about external clocks (article in Stereophile magazine). JVS: You don't believe in using an external word clock. Why? EM: Because I think this is the most stupid thing I've ever heard in the audio business. That means you have a precision clock that you have to connect to a wire to connect to a DAC, when the clock should be straight away where it belongs, inside the DAC, beside the DAC chip, if there is such a thing—not through a cable in a different box. This is so idiotic, it's not even funny. It's a money grab. JVS: I believe one of the arguments for an external clock is that it offers better shielding from power supplies, and will thus operate better. EM: Yeah, especially with units [that] have a separate power supply. There's a lot of shielding there. The whole thing is funny. MP: In our DACs, the reference clock is inside the product and an inherent part of the conversion circuitry. Anything that comes from the outside world, on whatever input we select, is buffered and reclocked, so we don't have to worry about the artifacts of an external clock. Everything is reclocked to our internal reference. That's what we mean by asynchronous clock design. marce, RickyV and jabbr 3 Main system TAD D1000mk2, TAD M2500mk2, TAD CE-1, Ansuz Mainz 8 C2, Ansuz Darkz D-TC, Qobuz Studio -> Roon ROCK on NUC -> Uptone etherREGEN -> dCS Network Bridge -> AES/EBU -> DAC HD Plex 200W PSU (4 rail for ISP fiber, router, etherREGEN and NUC) Second system Qobuz Studio -> Devialet Silver Phantom, Devialet Tree Link to comment

From one of the RJ45 LAN on the etherRegen I will connect my Roon ROCK server and the single isolated RJ45 port will go to my streamer. It will look something like this when I am done, might be some changes on the PSU as that is stuff from my system I have today and that might change.

octaviars Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 @JohnSwenson a question regarding the metallcase around the LAN port on the B-side how is that connected to other parts of the etherREGEN? Is there a connection to other metallcases (RJ45 A-side) and to the groundconnection or is it floating compared to them for example? My intrest in this is rather hypothetical, if I were to use a sheilded ethernetcable (with screen connected to the plug) from the B-side to streamer would this make a connection from upstream on A-side cables to the b-side streamer cable "if" they have the screens connected in the plugs on both sides A and B on the etherREGEN?

You and I want it now, but I promised John he could first continue work on some important "clock fingerprint" measurement test boards. As usual, we would dearly love to prove the efficacy of the REGENs (both USB and Ethernet), and if he is successful, the new measurement jig (involving special high-speed ADCs, a processor board, and a bunch of other boards) could provide proof for a range of upstream variables that we all hear, especially with regards to data clocking for which nobody understands why it makes a difference. Could blow things wide open. Or it could be a bust. That's what research and test is all about. Of course if the preproduction prototypes of the EtherREGEN test well on the bench--even if John's clock-marker tests don't get done in time or don't pan out--and if the unit is sonically effective in an audio system, then we are going to put it into production as soon as possible. @brad225 no preorder yet and I think the price target is $625 29 minutes ago, Puma Cat said: I may have missed it in the posts above, but is there a voltage spec for powering the EtherREGEN yet?

For example with the Uptone LPS-1.2 shipped to Sweden. Direkt from Uptone it is $435 and that is around 4250SEK and if it ends up in customs they add 25% TAX so that is 5300SEK (I dont know what the customs fee is so that will add more to the cost). Bought from Audiostore in England it is £435 and that is around 5200SEK so not much diffrences in the price for me where I buy it.

If you are going to connect a external clock that "shoud outperform in theory" the internal clock you most certanly will have to use good quality cable with crimped (soldering is not a good way of doing BNC connections) BNC connectors so the cable and contact dont affect the 10MHz signal (this will still be hard to do as the external clock is connected single ended with a cable and BNC connectors) and the internal Crystek clock is connected as a LVDS signal on the circuitboard. @Superdad wrote this on page 43 #1043 But ALL clock lines on the EtherREGEN are differential (LVDS), and for the parts that take SE clocks we place high-quality LVDS>SE clock buffers within a few millimeters of the chips they feed. There are 4 on the board. And as mentioned before, EtherREGEN is a 6-layer board--which gives a lot of extra control over ground and power planes and impedance control.
