Today I made a test with 3 variants of connection of my R26Weird or dumb question,
Can a mesh router provide similar results that we get with FMC mod , if the 2 routers are connected wirelessly?
Hope noise cannot be transferred wirelessly
1. 15m cat7 cable from my router into Ifi Lan iSilencer into R26 - my standard connection
2. Tp link wifi extender (powered by ifi ipower X) into Ifi Lan iSilencer into R26
3. Tp link wifi extender (powered by powerbank) into Ifi Lan iSilencer into R26
The nr.1 and 2 sound the same to my ears.. but by the nr.3 it seemed to me that it is little bit better, hard to describe (blacker background, sharper contours of the tones, better dynamics) it doesnt make sense to me, because the ipower is low noise PS and the powerbanks can be noisy... if the nr.3 sound is on the same level as using the FMCs (probably it is..), then It is really good upgrade for small investment into FMCs...
