I've tested my Jitterbug and can't find any difference. And i've found the source to make such an insignificant difference that i won't bother.I am changing my source to a NUC10i7NFH running as Roon Core and directly feeding my Dave via USB. The NUC will be powered by a linear power supply (HD Plex, 200W) and the Ethernet switch attached to it by an iFi iPower.
I remember having read tons of threads (including ones by Rob Watts himself) discussing the benefits of some kind of USB "filter" (e.g. the Jitterbug) to reduce the noise coming from the mains. Since then however I completely abandoned the topic.
What is the general consensus at the moment?
Shall I get a Jitterbug or similar, or invest another fortune in a good network player I don't really need?
I, for one am sticking with pc->optical->Dave. Not sure if i'm even getting the M-scaler, hate the clutter.
