It was an EtherRegen that I sold and replaced with the PhoenixNET when I had it in home demo from my dealer. The improvements were not subtle. The way I used to evaluate was to pull the Ethernet cable from the back of my streamer/server after setting the track to play. The NET was the same sound as no connection. The ER was not. To my mind using that method for evaluation gave me a good basis for evaluating ‘better’.
I'm actually toying with the idea of getting Sean to build me another ARC6 to power the ERs (plural) in my system as each power supply upgrade shows me that the ER scales well with better power. Single-mode fibre was the biggest transparency change over the network in my experience here. Good to see that different flavours work in different circumstances.
