    AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio

    What's the difference with/without EtherRegen using direct connection method from PC to Rednet device? I have JCat Ethernet Card on my PC that goes directly to Rednet D16. JCat (CCHD-957) and EtherRegen (CCHD-575) both use Crystek Femto clocks for phase noise. I doubt adding another device to my...

    Headamp Blue Hawaii Special Edition

    I don't want to give anyone the impression that I'm currently using my BHSE amp and rolling tubes. I haven't used my amp for about 4 years now, with the exception of about 5 hours to make sure it was still working properly. Since I retired (4 years ago), I only use my home stereo. I just wasn't...

    No, I have not listed my BHSE yet. Yes, it's working with other tubes.

    Headamp Blue Hawaii Special Edition

    If anyone is interested in acquiring NOS tubes for their BHSE, I've just listed 4 quads (2 quads XF2/OO, and 2 quads XF4/DD), and a used quad of XF3's. Not much of a deal really, as I'm looking to get what I paid for them (4 years ago). Prices have gone up since, but I've listed them for what I...

    Thanks Pete, it's nice we can share these types of things.

    If you've lost your D16 from Rednet Controller, try unplugging your LAN cable from the D16. Use a single cable, and plug one end into the Primary and other end into the Secondary ports of the D16. Once the lights begin flashing, unplug both ends and put you original LAN cable back into the...

    The DIY'rs Cookbook

    Thought I'd post this here instead of the Rednet thread since it's a DIY thing. Reading around on the internet, there's some thought that using 100mb/s has less noise than 1gb/s. So I changed the pcie setting in Windows to 100mb/s and had no issues at all (latency didn't change at all either)...

    Basically, yes to all your questions with the exception of the convolution (I have no experience with it). Maybe someone else might use convolution with Dante that could reply. My advise is to wait until JayNYC receives his, and see if he posts anything about it (or send him a PM).

    Yep, 5v, =>2.5A, =>28W (you can see it all on the back of the Mean Well picture you posted above). I don't think it would hurt to go 5v, =>3A, =>30W. You'll need a special cable made that goes from the LPS (2 wire DC connection) to the 5pin din unit using pins 3, 1 or 2 (common). There are...

    AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio

    I don't think there's a simple plug and play replacement for what you're asking (JJ's post confirms this). Before you run out and buy an LPS, what about this? If you can build your own adapter, you could make a cable (female to male) with pins 3, 1 or 2 (or both 1 and 2 for this cable). This...

    Ravenna has the ability to do DSD, so I think SR becomes more important for them. Like gefski, I'm 99% Redbook, so I just use the same SR for everything (SR really means nothing for me at this time).

    Still have the 6700k cpu/mobo, it was booted to the curb by the low powered Mini-ITX with 12v LPS, and other 5v LPS for PCIe and SSD. Since these Rednet devices only go as far as 192/24, it really makes no sense too me that they require anything more. The guy's wanting more horsepower are using...

    If there's a return policy, you could try it first and see how it works. Also, you're only out $179 if you decide on something else later on. Just know, resale on these are terrible. Personally, I wouldn't buy it (it just doesn't have enough options for what I like/need). Some or all of the...

    The DIY'rs Cookbook

    When Focusrite Customer Support receives questions about latency issues, including RN PCIE/R cards, I would imagine this is what their mind is seeing (pic below). Not some guy sitting at home in front of his 2 channel system listening to Pink Floyd being feed from a PC with a Rednet device...

    Exact same issue at one point (testing various SSD's). However, after explaining I'm a home user, with a single computer, no recording studio, etc., I got this reply. "

    AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio

    One thing I found with Focusrite support is you need to be very specific in telling them you are using your RN in an audio system with only 2 channels, and no DAW software, or recording studio. I think they probably just glazed over 'domestic audiophile' with a mindset of something bigger...

    Something I noticed with my system is as the sample rate goes down, the latency goes up. With 44.1/16 my latency is 1.8msec, and using a 176.4/24 sample rate, it drops down into 900-999usec. IOW, latency has almost doubled when using 44.1/16. It would be very difficult for anyone to sit down...

    AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio

    Since my system has been up for awhile now, I tried going into RNC/Dante/Audinate (Stop/Start) a couple of time and eventually ended up getting the error. No way to fix it, other than reboot my PC. So your right, there is a bug. However, this isn't something that bothers me (not sure about...

    Have you tried removing the GPU card and running music files locally from hard drive? I only get 1.8ms when resampling rate is 44.1. When running at 176.4 it drops below 1ms. My machine runs at 1.6ghz with 8gb of ram. Have never had an issue running months and months 24/7. Are you using your...

    AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio

    If your latency is only 4ms, there's something else going on here you ain't explaining. Nothing posted about your PC (or the rest of your system). Are you just hoping someone else had this issue and 'this' is what I did to resolve it? You may very well have to start from scratch, and reformat...

    AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio

    Schiit would be one of the very few that might have interest (no DSD), but I have my doubts about that (cost increase, might still require minor complexity setup, just to name a few cons). Looks like it's still focused towards professional audio since it's still only capable of 192Khz...

    AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio

    I had nothing but problems with the realtek nic in my system. Never had a single issue with the intel nic in my other 2 systems. I'm not so sure the improvements your hearing are related to latency, as I would think it's more about NOT using the realtek nic anymore.
