Primarily for streaming Qobuz to etherRegen switch (Supra Cat8) to Lumin U2 Mini (AQ Vodka/RAL Prophecy on order) to Chord Qutest (AQ Carbon digital coax/RAL on order). Streamer supplied by SBooster PS; Qutest supplied by Teradak LPS. All plugged to PS Audio regenerator.
I'm thinking that powering the router with its wall-wart might be holding me back. Would like to hear what any of you who've been through this have to say. Thanks!

Sorry brother. Let me shut this down and add my post to your thread.

Naw man, you are good.
I don't want to steal your thunder.
Rock on with yo' bad self. I'm just here for the ride....

I achieved better sound and video quality running my network gear with better power supplies.

Certainly worth a try and the cost is relatively small. Thanks, Ray, and Happy Holidays!

@DarqueKnight have you tried nicer DC cables? Just curious
I found those upgraded teradak DC cables were literally 20 awg wire with a slight twist in tech flex... Upgraded cable brought a darker background for sure- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -

Yes! I replaced the stock DC cables of all my TeraDak LPSs with DC cables from Ghent Audio. The Ghent
cables were made from Canare 4S8G star quad cable. I replaced the Ghent cables with DIY cables that I made from VH Audio's VQuad Cu21 star quad cable.
When I ordered a Farad Super3 LPS for my EtherREGEN switch, I opted for Farad's Level 2 upgrade DC cable (solid silver). I also ordered a Ghent DC cable for the Super3 to compare to the Farad upgrade cable. I kept the Farad cable.
