I have read a lot about the effects of a Farad LPS, but not enough about the LPS 1.2 on the ER. So far, the stock SMPS is all I have used with the ER, and it seems to be doing fine. If the LPS 1.2 can bring some added improvement, then I wouldn't mind trying it. Any helpful hints or pointers would be welcome. I was hoping to sell my LPS 1.2 after installing the EtherRegen, but some A/B comparisons with the supplied SMPS made it clear that it was worthwhile using LPS 1.2 the feed the ER. sahmen 1 SonicTransporter i9 > EtherRegen (optical out) > LUMIN P1 > LUMIN Amp > YG Kipod Signature Passive speakers.

For most of you using single mode fiber, I’d suggest ordering two pairs of 10 dB attenuators from Amazon. Try them at both ends. I happen to have single mode fiber. I didn’t give it much thought, but I hate the color orange, so I ordered a run of aqua colored single mode fiber. I think things sound great but you have me intrigued. I’ll order the attenuators and give it a try. The other option is to try a better multi mode cable, like the Sonore branded Corning. But if I post a question on sound quality of optical cable I’m sure to incur much derision on this forum. kennyb123 1 SonicTransporter i9 > EtherRegen (optical out) > LUMIN P1 > LUMIN Amp > YG Kipod Signature Passive speakers.

I think Alex recommend that when using the 1.2. soares 1 SonicTransporter i9 > EtherRegen (optical out) > LUMIN P1 > LUMIN Amp > YG Kipod Signature Passive speakers. Link to comment
Popular Post Ultrarunner Posted February 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2020 After reading some comments regarding EtherRegen grounding, I thought I would give it a try. I power my ER with an LPS 1.2. I wired up a ground terminal of a AC plug and connected the other end to my ER. It made a significant improvement. The system sounded great after adding the ER. I still can’t get over how much better it sounds now that it’s grounded. mourip and skatbelt 1 1 SonicTransporter i9 > EtherRegen (optical out) > LUMIN P1 > LUMIN Amp > YG Kipod Signature Passive speakers.

Thank you I found the opticalRendu benefited from an LPS, as it did the EtherRegen which replaced it. I also use an LPS to power my router. That is also of benefit, but I assume the benefit comes from replacing a SMPS that was adding noise back onto the AC line.
