Added EtherStream + Nikola Classic feedback from Kurt Lantz

 in Feedback

Here’s another feedback today from a client who ordered EtherStream last year and then with Nikola Classic recently.

Hi – Another satisfied customer 🙂

For the last year I owned the Fidelizer EtherStream with its included power supply. It’s been a very worthwhile upgrade from the wired connection directly from router to my streamer/dac. After listening to it with the Nikola power supply I can’t believe the overall improvement. If I switch back to the router connection, I’d put it on the same level as having a great turntable with a $20 cartridge mounted. It plays music, but its full potential is greatly hindered by the cartridge. This combo could be considered a ‘digital phono cartridge’ in the playback chain. I didn’t hear what Tidal or Qobuz could truly deliver to my system until I had these in place.

I work in a stereo shop in the United States where we represent some of the best products money can buy. There isn’t anything we sell that’ll make as big of an improvement to your streaming experience for the price of these two products. Not even close.

Try this combo for all they’ll bring to the music. – Kurt Lantz

It’s great to see feedback from client working in audiophile business and see EtherStream and Nikola Classic working great together there. 🙂

Added Nikola Classic + EtherStream feedback from Gabor

Here’s a new feedback today from a client who ordered EtherStream with Nikola Classic. He ordered EtherStream first and also took Nikola Classic after hearing my recommendation.

Dear Keetakawee,

I just got my EtherStream – Nikola Classic combo and connect them. There is late night now but I almost couldn’t stand up and stop listening to TIDAL music. You are a Genius. They added a huge portion of musical precision, clarity, details and wide stage to my system which I believed before is perfect. To listen a Barclay James Harvest album never was such an enjoyment from a CD than now from TIDAL. But it is just an example among other albums. I made only one improvement I use an Isol-8 power cord to feed Nikola. Many thanks again for the fantastic musical experience!

All the best!
Gabor

I’m happy to hear EtherStream and Nikola Classic combo can help adding huge portion of musical precision, clarity, details and wide stage to his system which he believed before is perfect. 🙂

Here’s another feedback today from a client who ordered EtherStream with Nikola Signature. Nikola Signature also powers his Merging DAC too.

Hi Keetakawee,

Yesterday the package arrived and in the late afternoon i connected the switch and the power supply to the system. With your products I have heard more beautiful sound with both Tidal and Qobuz. First of all, the total absence of any harshness or hardening of the sound message both with classical music and with pop. This is the qualitative point I particularly care about.
It also improves the focus and precision of the outlines of the instruments within the stage now even more transparent and broad. The tonal balance is also more balanced across the entire frequency range. Before this upgrade the music tended to be harsh in the mid-to-high range, giving me fatigue in long listening sessions. I thank you again for your great work.

Regards
Giorgio

I’m happy to hear EtherStream and Nikola Signature combo can improve shortcomings in streaming audio effectively and happy listening. 🙂

Added NimitraS + NikolaS + EtherStream feedback from Olivier

Here’s a new feedback today from a client who ordered a complete set of Nimitra + Nikola Signature with EtherStream. I hope to offer this bundle in next month.

I received the Nimitra today. Thank you very much! I extracted a test CD. Although the Nimitra needs some burning-in, the result is already impressive. I have never heard such clarity and delicateness in the extracted music (I am almost listening to classical music).

Qobuz is back, so I could listen to some favorite pieces of music. Of course, there is no comparison possible with the Bonn N8…. Your switch does a very effective job and it sounds completely different as previously. And, Qobuz becomes worth listening to 🙂

The Bonn N8 has been « offered » by the shop which sold my Linn system. So I had no possibility to compare with something else. Now the comparison is made, and the Bonn N8 is going to be sold very quickly. Thank you again!

Regards,
Olivier

This is the first feedback for Nimitra + Nikola Signature combo used as CD ripping device. There’s also feedback about EtherStream with Quboz application to check out too. 🙂

EtherStream Network Switch review on HiFi Knights by Dawid Grzyb

 in Review

 

EtherStream - Main

Actually, this review was published for a while but I’ve been so busy with delivering EtherStream Network Switch and many other products so I forgot to publish this until now. I’m so sorry and also very thankful for you guys’ continuous support.

This review is written by Dawid Grzyb and is the first Fidelizer product review in HiFi Knights. It’s thoroughly investigated review with every nook inside examined and shown. Not that I mind since I also showed and explained what I did for personal use.

I like how he compare EtherStream to his reference USB reclocker and galvanic isolation components and see that he can find similar improvements on network at more affordable approach as below.

Positive Feedback

The micro iUSB3.0 reclocker and EtherStream were quite alike voiced to my ears. The former’s action was more audible, but as previously not by a lot. Once again I thought that better LAN cables could even things out a fair bit, but today’s skirmishes with my USB boxes weren’t important per se as one doesn’t replace the other. Their action stacks. These investigations were conducted mainly to ease my own curiosity, but also to find out whether Keetakawee’s box could keep up with two fine examples of iFi audio’s USB engineering and remain just as relevant elsewhere. If today’s put up against USB sorters strikes you as odd, all fundamentally shave excess noise and make music more liquid, that’s their common ground. That’s why the main disparity was in their different junctures of my setup, not audible job. Even handicapped by stock LAN cables and away from streaming services, Fidelizer’s deck held its ground very well all things considered. What this switch was able to accomplish in my room, was already not too shabby for its coin and sub-optimal conditions. Something tells me that supported by better LAN cables, PSU, and used with streaming services, it would go faster, bigger and bolder, but that’s a story for another time. What’s important now is EtherStream’s audibly potent and beneficial input, with no strings attached. Yes, please.

I didn’t send switch with Nikola linear power supply so reviewer can review network switch on its own merits but you can upgrade linear power supply for better sound quality too. You can read his full review and see his journey about network improvements for more details.
