New Network Acoustics eno2 system

[agisthos]

I have the SmoothLAN and it works nicely.
The ENO 2 seems to be the next step up on the upgrade path.

It would be good to hear from someone who actually has the ENO 2 and had used products like the EE-1, iFi or SmoothLAN and tell us what is gained.

Compared to iFi or SmoothLAN you will experience a more natural sound quality. It gets you closer to the original music. Definitely worth the upgrade.

you will experience a more natural sound quality

…because more details in the recording are revealed with eno2.

For clarity, this isn't relevant to ethernet (and the title in frame 1 is highly misleading). I confess that I flipped through but most of the Q&A were about the data reaching the DAC. It is the streamer which converts ethernet data packets to a continuous bitstream and it is only at and after the (any) streamer that timing (and jitter) become relevant. Comments about the shape of the analog(ue) signal used to carry digital data risk misleading folk if a clear distinction is not made between pre-streamer digital data (in packets, asynchronous) and post-streamer digital data (continuous bitstream, synchronous).
