Hi Adrian,

 

First impression.

EtherRegen / Adark Masterclock feeded by 2x Farads and 4x modified Bonn switches with LPS (4x) playing on Auralic Vega G2.1 and Cambridge Edges W and Kef R3 

The Nigthawk and Adark High current LPS are indeed improving (to my ears) the SQ in terms of improved separation and even better stereo depth image. 

Will even be better after a longer period of burning in!

 

How can ???🤫😳🤓

 

Thanks for thids ... nice toy for ..,,Audio-boys.

 

Very best regards, Andreas

Can the nighthawk work with separate WIFI transmitters, and can you disable the internal WIFI?

I have in use the according range extender of Netgear by means of Wifi6 protocal.Not wired.

 

Your question if ......understoond well is that you connect a separate wifi network by means of wired wifi transmitter? That's possible but difficult to arrange. Please the 200 pages manual of the Nighthawk!!!

 

But the Wifi of the Nigthhawk itself is very good and latest 6ghz standard transmitting. Really fast.

indeed, thanks for responding!

 

I want to keep WIFI as far away from my audio network and only need it in two floors of the house so the wifi extenders work well there...I was dreading a router manual...they seem to be written by the nerdiest of nerdy nerds ;-)

I gladly accept the tradeoff of not having the SOTA WIFI 6, I have most of my house wired for performance and to keep radiation low rather than having to shield a lot of gear.
