Stack Audio-SmoothLAN Network Filter

I thought I would share a recent tweak I picked  up on from an Audiogon thread.  I had another “Oh My” moment similar to the Snubway results.  It’s the Stack Audio-SmoothLAN Network Filter.  Ships from England with a return guarantee. I have tried several ethernet filters IFi, pink faun, AQ with no improvement.  This one made a noticeable improvement I did not expect.
My set up:  Mesh router-ethernet cable-FMC-optical cable- FMC- ethernet- SmoothLAN-smoothLan ethernet cable- Bricasti streamer

Just read the description in the link.  Very cool.   This is one area I have yet to explore but have been interested for quite some time.  My entire house has networking cable in every room in addition to running POE security cameras.  SFP connects my switch to my NVR.   I have a a 5 port POE hub that feeds my laptop, Raspberry Pi, TV , and other devices.  I’m sure this would be a great place to install one.  

Thanks for the info….when I’m ready to jump in….I’ll give this one a consideration.
