Thank you, Fred. But, honestly, it was not about patience. I simply had much bigger things to worry about during that period.

I think you are now competitive with the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose.

Hi Ron,
So happy for you that things are starting to move forward again. I can't wait to see pictures of the progression.
When I renovated and added on to our home I was without my system for about 2 1/2 years. that was painful.
Keep us updated on the progress with pics please.

When the time comes for me to buy a DAC should I connect the streamer to the Internet via an ethernet cable that I plugged into an ethernet jack on the walk near the source components, or do I connect the streamer to the Internet via Wi-Fi?
Thank you!
Thank you!
Hi Ron,
I'm happy for you that things are progressing.
Your question is not so easy to answer. Many are satisfied with WLAN. Dan Bellity preferred WLAN for his La Rosita streamer because galvanic isolation was important to him. I prefer a stable connection over fiber, which also galvanically isolates. I consider a good switch to be very important.
That's how I implemented it:
Do I really need an " Audio Grade Network Switch "?
Ethernet is a rather complicated matter. ;) After a lot of testing and evaluation, my network (see picture below) is the best in "my system" so far. Before the description the disclosure of my financial interests. The fis Audio PCs / Servers I sell. To the other devices there is no economic...

My connection is different than any, I have ever heard anyone describe.
I have a coaxial cable the comes directly from the fiber connection box on the outside of our home. In my room it is connected to an ActionTec converter. Coaxial in one side and Ethernet out the other side. It requires its own power supply.
That Ethernet cable connects to my switch that feeds my NAS and Server.
Unless the system some how, does things I don't understand, it seems I don't go through the router that all other direct connections in the house do.
I realize the iPad to control my music may go through the wireless part of the router but there is no connection for my internet in my listening room.
If I am way off base here I would welcome an explanation of how the direct signal to my room is not a good thing.
I never really thought about it when I was building my room during our home renovation and only ran 15' of coaxial I needed from the main box outside.
Just another possibility for you to investigate Ron.
This is the amateur radio-type approach I would naturally gravitate toward!

Thank you very much for this post. Unfortunately I could not get past the connections diagram!
I like wires, so the ethernet wire connection from the wall makes sense to me. We seem to have pretty good internet download speed from Spectrum.
Is there any point in tapping into the incoming Internet signal as far upstream as possible? In other words should I try to get an ethernet cable dedicated to audio into the utility connection box where the Spectrum cable comes in from the street?
Or does that not matter, and I can just plug an ethernet cable into the router (wherever it is) and run the ethernet cable to the streamer in the listening room?
Or does that not matter, and I can just run the ethernet cable from the nearest, random, wall-mounted ethernet jack?
I’m afraid to ask . . . but . . . is there a particular brand and model of ethernet cable I should buy to run in-wall?
