EtherREGEN: The long development thread. [Some Gen2 dev. pics and update starting on page 92.]

Hi.  I need some advice on the best location for the EtherRegen in my set-up.  Between Router and Mac Mini or between Mac Mini and DAC?

 

Current set-up

Router --> Mac Mini Roon Server powered by UpTone JS2—> DAC Ethernet input (Ethernet sourced from Mac Mini configured in bridged mode)

 

Thanks

I'd attach your Ethernet-input DAC to the 'B' port of the EtherREGEN.  That's most important.  Then plug your Mac mini into one of the 'A' side ports; and of course the line from your router to one of the 'A' side ports.

The Ethernet bridging of the Mac mini will no longer be necessary.  Use the Mac mini's internal Ethernet port and skip the Thunderbolt>Ethernet adapter.

 

By the way, what DAC with Ethernet input do you have?

Thanks.   I am using a bel canto black series dac/integrated amp.

Alex I really appreciate you taking the time to provide an early feedback on the EtherRegen.  I hope the beta testing goes smoothly and we will have the product available to us soon.  

 

Thank You

Excellent Alex! I would have been more than willing to split the difference.  I hope you have a volume seller on your hands.
