ISO Regen performance Improvement Cheap!

[Theobetley]

Just so I understand: you jury rig a standard power supply connector to a POE (std to ethernet convertor) and on the other end do the opposite and lo and behold you  have a high performance power supply feed. Is this correct?

I am not degrading the tweak just trying to understand. Once I understand I will try on all my power supplies. I guess jury rig does sound pejorative but I meant once you hook up the power supply feed to route through an ethernet cable (via the POE's) you get clean power at the other end.

I really like the Telegartner ends. IMs they are very transparent.

Been checking here for several weeks now and I am really surprised no one has commented on the single most bang for buck upgrade you can add to your system when using the ISO Regen.

In fact I think it would be a perfect add on that should be offered with all ISO Regens at point of sale.

 

If anyone has followed Rob over at US Audio Mart (seen you there often Alex) you will be aware of the discussions on the serious uplift in sound quality you get with just adding about $10 of cable between the power supply and the IR.

Its basically a quick and easy cable snap in and then just sit back and be blown away by the greater separation, low frequency dynamics and overall amazing depth to the music never heard before, i listen to Red Book files...its all there!

 

For those looking for an explanation on how adding cheap cables into the power in on the IR could make such a difference I have to say this has me dumbfounded and I was a complete skeptic, the low cost and easy install was the only reason i tried it.

 

Its basically adding a CAT7 cable with passive POE ends to carry the DC between power supply and the IR, when you connect up the 2 pieces just stick the power supply in the female jack on one end and stick the male jack on the other end into the IR and sit back and be amazed.

CAT7

I used all the components cited in the original post and I am blown away by the results. If I could describe it in one word it would be ‘air’ on almost everything I listened to. What a monumental beneficial tweak. Only in a place like CA Audio do you find something like this. Bravo.

I use a battery to power both a microRendu and a switch and when I switched from regular power cable to an ethernet cable I got the same results reported in this thread.
