Upgraded to the RS130 from the RS150b

I ran it most of last week so at least 80 hours. I’m still tinkering, but would like to get rid of the “slightly bright” if I can.

I’m glad I read this entire tread.

Regarding the Afterdark link AfterDark. Project ClayX Constellation SFP 1G Module for Audiophile

This is a Cat copper to fiber optic converter, right?

If so, is your connection Router LAN port > Cat RJ45 cable > AfterDark Converter (Transceiver Module) > Fiber optic cable > (Transceiver Moduler) RS130.

If you used the above connection, was your Cat RJ45 Cable short & and your Fiber Optic cable long? This is what I was thinking of doing since Fiber Optic
cables are immune to EMI.

Let me know if the above is a good connection strategy. Also, since you now know a lot about the pros & cons, do you recommend I consider the other kit (ie, the kit wiyh “the SFP+ with I assume a better fiber optic cable” for greater improvement?

BTW, My system has top-of-the-line Totem Acoustic Element Medal V2 towers with the Element Wood V2 Center & two JL Audio f112v1 subwoofers. My equipment is Anthem’s top AVM 90 prepro with a Saber ESS9038PRO DAC, McIntosh MC 255 Power Amp, and more… I plan to buy the HiFi Rose RS130 in the next few months. I’m completing my research before buying.

@duffer Awaiting your respnse & wisdom.
