Hi All,
new cords have come to Oz and I am working with my supplier.

I thought it may be edifying to seek some forum thoughts on what I should prioritise.

I won't bore everyone with a system description, but instead just describe current cabling arrangement.

OK from Wall we have:
- Alpha NR v1
- ISOTEK Syncro (clean up DC)
- NR v10 (used because it has a C19 plug)
- PS8 (with defender)

From Wall re: Internet it goes:
- Modem (NETGEAR etc supplied by phone company)
- Sigma E/net
- Server
- DH Labs Reunion E/net
- Renderer
- Sigma USB
- DAC
- Alpha RCA
- H/L Pass
- Venom interconnects for highs as well as Venom speaker cables.

I guess i was thinking about replacing the PS8 which is US with the Oz version. This has better noise management features.

Then I thought I would try and put Omega E/net in instead of Sigma (swap). I was very impressed with how Sigma E/net changed sound and I note changes upstream give me something I like.

Then if funds were OK i'd go ahead and get an Alpha XC to feed the new Australian Version PS8.

I am torn because my Highs Amp is a SPEC Class D and I wonder how great an Alpha V2 NR would sound on it :-)

Thoughts welcome
