iFi Audio LAN iSilencer Review 

Everything you have just said is very true, I put one in yesterday and I have cleaner sound more air and the timing sounds more on point then before, easy to hear the difference as you take it in and out.

I see you put the iSilencer on the output from your router. Doesn't it make better sense to put it on the input of your streamer? Ethernet cables are very susceptible to noise, so I figure it makes most sense to put the iSilencer at the end of the chain, not the beginning.

The more cables I shield the quieter my room becomes. It's now become so quiet there are times I'm unable to tell the difference whether my system is switched off or it's actually switched on but just on pause. And the startling thing about it I have 9 channels. In my experience interference is all from the cables!

This thing ROCKS! I have two ISPs in the house, Verizon and Xfinity. I bought three of these ifi devices, both networks got one at the router, and Katy bar the door! Both networks and video streamers are now much faster, and one troublesome box is much more stable, with fewer freezes on troublesome channels. Worth every penny!

Nice clean review. Thnx i am ordering one.

Modem/router/switch Gateways are not audiophile grade and they do not care about eliminating 100% of the noise because they need to be cheap for the masses , we need them for the Packets of data they send to feed our streamers so why not isolate out the signal its the only thing you can do to make your source data better and they dont need Power because there is power over ethernet anyway but it is a passive filter . If a company were to sell an Audiophile grade switch/router it would more than likely have galvanic ports and more than not a better power supply . I also put a dc silencer feeding my DC on my Gateway from Ifi , I didn't notice anything like many other mods I do but in theory it makes a difference. before the lan Isilencer from Ifi come along there was only one other that I knew of and it was twice the price and it wasn't really meant for audiophiles it was meant for Telecom/data guys but audiophiles were using them cause they just work its not snake oil , I know Ifi being an audiophile company focuses on all the audiophile aspects that make these things great so its a no brainer for me and since my rig is 20k what's another $89.00 down the rabbit hole to filter the source data. They make cheap $12 galvanic isolators on amazon for your coax network and they work , PS audio sells them and there $50.00 (scum) , your coax network ties into your set top box/ cable box then your HDMI goes from your cable box into your receiver introducing noise into the system. simply take the coax off then put it on and listen at 2:00 am put your ear into the cone with no volume if you hear a difference you will know.

Hdd noise yes, now all the sreaming services have jitter special in voices hzzzzz What about this how the if fix it? when it comes from the source? they are songs that don't have electric noise also. We are fishing songs in the sea of jitter

Absolutely unnecessary and expensive. Unfortunately I bought it and I am not happy with it at all. Not only did it not improve anything, it even worsened the dynamics in the music. Make her sound dull and clipped.

I have bought an ipurifier before and sent it back. I think that ifi is the biggest ripoff out there for buyin tweaks.
