RS130 sound quality is amazing!

Wow, great, a HiFi Rose Dac.
I haven’t heard from my dealer when it will be available !
I’ll be looking for it too.

Yes I have all Hifi Rose electronics on one system now. My plan is to try the Piega speaker and have identical system like shown at AXPONA , and I still keep my Mcintosh , Weiss set up when I feel more like relaxing sound.

Hello,
If the subject is high-end music, wireless is out of the question. I have tried many things with wired and fiber. I can easily say that fiber cable still does not replace a quality cable. I tried this option again on my new devices that I bought 2 weeks ago and tested the fiber cable. I can say that the details are negatively affected with fiber compared to wired. I could last for about 5 minutes and then I went back to wired.

The ethernet cable I use is AQ Diamond, streamer RS130, dac Denafrips Terminator plus, power amp mastersound 845, pre Kinki EX P27, speakers focal micro utopia.

For your information.

No offence, Tweakhane, I can only agree with you that fiber cable isn’t perfect. Also, just like ordinary wire cables, different fiber cables sound differently. And it’s more difficult and time-consuming to find a good fiber one as there aren’t fiber cables made for HiFi yet. Users have to search by luck.

Your Diamond cable is surely a premium one. But price-performance wise, fiber cable is superb.

Despite the fact that I currently use wire LAN cable from switch to 130. Fiber connection was still remarkable to my ears over less-quality LAN cables. I am still exploring.

I had a PSU upgraded G2 which was excellent. I traded for an Aqua LinQ that was superior. Then traded for a RS130, which beat both.

When i added fiber optic connection through SFP to RS130 it did appear to add slightly more resolution

Great. Glad to hear that.
You may try different Fibre Optic Cables. They sound different too. So far I found the Corning Fibre the best.
