Hello, I’m looking at this product:
to use instead of an optical extender from my Windows 10 PC to my Topping E70.
My questions are: what type of protocol does audio over Ethernet use. To my understanding there are different layers to Ethernet that can be used to send this information. Dante for instance works on layer 3 (I think). How is this communication different from SPDIF, and how is the latency and jitter performance? Would this product introduce more latency than say a pure optical or coaxial connection?
Also, this isn’t too relevant but there are versions of these receivers and transmitters on Amazon that I’d love to see reviewed and compared to more known products (such as the Focusrite Dante ones) cause maybe there is no audible difference.
Thanks for your input.
