May take a long time, i will try the MeiCord opal its also made for audio applications and its U/UTP fully unshielded, (72 EUR for 1m), by the way i opened my REX today, mine has also the two chips inside, one is a Realtek RTL8211EG Gigabit Ethernet Transceiver, the other one a Cypress CYUSB3314-88LTXC USB3.0 hub controller, both with dedicated clocks, both chips running at 3,3V according to the data sheet

Can you post a photo?

I have tried the DDR3 memory filter and did not hear any effect.  I used the fan filters to good effect - when I had fans. The USB card was a waist.  The PPA V2 was much better and actually ran from the PCIe slot not the USB VBUS

  I have both, they works good in synergy with iPurifier2 to offer clean power to my Singxer F-1. I power the IDefender with an iPurifier 5v but I'll soon switch to a good LPS.
 
The iSilencer is a USB decrappifier that works at the USB pc side, the iPurifier works at the USB DAC side (at least that's what iFi Audio state if you ask them).
 
(P.S. yes, I know, I already have the X-1 so why I bought also the F-1? Hype I guess.... BTW shipping from shenzen audio from china to italy in 2 working day!! I'm astonished)

Italy - so jealous! Deliziosissima!
 
Have you compared the X-1 to the F-1? Hear any SQ differences?  I sure did.

Where're you going?

 

[Paulkouhan]

I get the olimex USB isolator : ( 30 € ) today :
 
https://www.olimex.com/Products/USB-Modules/USB-ISO/
 
I put it between the PC and the recovery (no 5V between the olimex and recovery).
=> Tight bass, more air, ....
 
I first tested it on my Headphone set up ( Laptop foobar + NAD D7050 + Hifiman HE 500 plugged on speaker outputs) and get the same impressions.
 
I will give a try to the Intona one ...
