    I replaced the power supply for the router, connected to the streamer and playing a role of Wi-Fi receiver. It was a simple bundled SMPS (12V). I switched to a chargerlike 6V small linear PS. The improvement in SQ was comparable to introducing Wi-Fi bridge - lower background noise, better...

    Using 2 WiFi routers in media bridge mode to lower noise level

    I can confirm that adding a second Wi-Fi router to a local audio network improves the sound quality. But to hear advantages of this approach you need to provide clean power for both routers.

    Symposium Ultra platform vs $69 Auralex Isolation platform

    Auralex Acoustics isolation platforms are excellent value for the money. I am using a few of them - a pair of ProPads, three BabyGramma v2s and one SubDude-II. In conjunction with Symposium Rollerblocks they provide better dynamics, lower background noise and generally fuller, richer, more...
