What footers are people using for their LHY switches? I only have a few inexpensive things lying around, but they seem to help. Cardas myrtle blocks were a good start - better punch and clarity, better bass pitch and tone - but Herbie’s Tenderfeet were kind of mind blowing. Huge bass, way more punch, and the soundstage comes alive with effects to hard left or right pushing way beyond the width of the speakers. It literally sounds like turning it up 1-2dB! Kind of shocking.

I moved Muon Pro from directly out of Router before SW-6 to further downstream right before Lumin U2 from SW-10 in lieu of Fiber - it’s better here in my system. Thanks for the suggestion Donald - I prefer it here and it’s better sounding than the Fiber! Nice box.

That was my experience with Lumin U2, a great ethernet cable/filter was still better than FO in front of the streamer. Enjoy your new setup!
After watching Hans video I put 3 IsoAcoustics Orea Bronze feet (that were no longer in use) under the SW6. While I was at it I put 3 Orea Graphite feet under the Muon Pro (between the SW6 and MU2) - they seemed to help.
Before I buy any more feet I’m going to get a better rack!

Hey dchang05 - I m curious to know if you ever got your Muon Pro? I hope so - I am loving mine - curious to know your first impressions…
I am running Muon Pro/Omega with MU2 four days non-stop (received on Tuesday). It has sounded better every day. By 2nd day it has exceeded the SQ of Stack SmoothLan already. It may be the best ethernet filter on the market right now.

Donald - how is it sounding with the Muon?
I have made some major changes in my rack arrangement, and I have received two additional Xangsane grounding boxes yesterday. The system was shut down most of the time yesterday, but today it already sounds better than I ever remembered. So, the improvement from now on could be due to a number of factors instead of from Muon Pro break-in alone. I am very happy about the Muon Pro for sure.

Haha! Sounds like me sometimes I have so many upgrades going and not sure what I’m listening to, but it’s sounding great. My Muon
is nice and burned in and I absolutely love what it’s doing. Good to hear your system is sounding better than ever also!

Any update on this?
Image depth cues are improved slightly along with detail retrieval with the LPS for A8. For the cost, I would say a very worthwhile upgrade. I would suspect a larger difference would be evident with the DAC built into the A8 but I haven’t tried that.
Excellent post! Apparently, PSA doesn’t agree. But I hear it.
