Here’s another feedback today from early Nimitra client with highend system. He ordered 2 units for his friends and shared feedback with his friend’s system in forum.

Tested EtherStream in my friend’s system consisting of expensive cables, Odin 2, CH Precision with PSU, Trinity pre & power amp. Compared to the stock Cisco switch (same as EtherStream’s stock Cisco except 5 ports), major and clearly audible improvement.

In my system with Nimitra Music server with all Vitus Masterpiece components, there was improvement but not as dramatic as in my friend’s system. Probably because his NAS was connected to EtherStream where else my SSD was connected directly to 1 of Nimitra USB port.

I did compare it streaming through Tidal. Even though it better compare to using stock switch, I prefer the SQ streaming through local files. How good is Nimitra? Not bad at all considering the price. I used to play with Aurender W20 connected to MSB Selectl. For reference.

This is just my opinion. Couldn’t believe a modified switch can make such an impact on SQ.

This is probably the first feedback from ultra highend systems with EtherStream. I’m happy to hear EtherStream making good contribution on other highend systems. 🙂

 

 

Here’s a new feedback today from client who purchased EtherStream to use with Fidelizer Nimitra+Nikola server combo. He also find improvements on video streaming too.

Hi Keetakawee,

EtherStream Switch has now been in my system for a couple of weeks. The quality of hires audio streaming is dramatically improved and now very close to playing directly from SSD disk. As a welcome bonus, picture and sound quality for TV and video streaming is also significantly better. This is by far the best value for money audio/video upgrade I have ever done.

Best regards
Kjell

I’m happy to hear that he finds improvements with EtherStream as I intended to build for. EtherStream is the most effective upgrade to for streaming media applications. 🙂

 

 

Here’s another feedback today from client who received EtherStream last week. He shared me his feedback after trying EtherStream for the first time.

Hi,

I’ve got it today afternoon. It is amazing! I’m very grateful. Thank you!

Regards,
Kulcsár Zoltán

I’m happy to hear that EtherStream making amazing improvement on his system. It’ll perform even better after burning in. 🙂

 

 

Here’s a new feedback today. I received his feedback after product being well broken with NAS storage.

Hi Keetakawee

Now that the switch is pretty well broken in, the sound (and video) quality is significantly improved! I play my music off a NAS drive, and the sound quality improvement is easily as big an as I got from Marcin’s JCAT network card but the combination of both is even greater improvement!

I notice it mostly in the clarity and the tightness of the bass. My wife (who has superhuman hearing) said this is the biggest improvement she has heard to date. (and I am continuously tweaking things)

Congratulations on your accomplishment and thanks!

Greg

I’m happy to hear his wife finds EtherStream being the biggest improvement she has heard to date. It’s truly worth researching for years to overcome network problems effectively like this. 🙂

 

 

Here’s another feedback today from early customer who purchased Nimitra and Nikola before. He ordered EtherStream before official launch when he asked for switch advice.

I put the Aqvox switch back in just to do a little test while my hearing senses were peaked. Not much of a comparison even though I also noted that the AQ was far superior to off the shelf switch. Your new switch, which I hope is the same as the EtherStream, showed it’s stuff in harmonic detail and, where I notice the analog/digital difference most, in defined bass. I’m partial to Kind of Blue for that bass articulation. I have an original LP pressing at 45 rpm which is staggeringly good and there’s a clear difference in the digital version between the AQ and EtherStream…very clear. That’s as far as I’ve gone and the EtherStream is a permanent fixture.

This is the first feedback after launching EtherStream. His feedback describes what I really like with EtherStream so well. 🙂
