Difficult to express feelings when English is not my language.
First impression hot, rather cold, of the installation of the FARAD on my etherregen.
just an hour after the FARAD was turned on.
From the start I felt a different feeling when listening to my test playlist.
My first word is some opening up of the soundstage (more open bass and detailed high frequency). I think I am not mistaken. My clock is also burning in etc .....
I have the impression that "the sound level" is "lower" and I can go up two or three notches more than my usual volume without the sound invading me

I'm going to let it all burn in. The power cable, SR orange, Farad .. everything is new. It has to fall into place.

The aesthetics of the FARAD is pretty even if I prefer the jewel JS2 Uptone Audio. A black JS2 would be a desire for me.

Than you for the impressions. Can you tell me what Power Supply you used before on the EtherRegen?

Initially my etherregen was powered by its cousin JS2 Uptone Audio
Since the acquisition of an external clock, my ER was powered by a Waversa WLPS in the expectation of finding better because it was written on the forum that it was necessary to avoid feeding on the same linear power supply two products connected to the ER.

Thank you about the PSU before. If I understand correctly, the clock and ER were connected to the same supply? It is difficult to talk technical English, I would struggle en francais 😉.

 

Once my new ER has burned in, I plan to connect the ER and ifi Micro USB3 from the same power supply, 9V 6.5A. It is an experiment, with all the 0V connected to PE conductor, there should not be any differences in return paths, since this is industrial wiring practice. It is difficult to stop leakage currents, that's why the forum recommends separate power supply for ER and any other device like a clock. 

 

When two devices have different power supplies connected floating, and joined with signal cable, then there will be trouble since the signal cable will carry noise from one to the other. Not the best.
