Or you can check out this thread where multiple people claim it’s not possible to make any difference (even though they’ve never tried themselves): https://www.superbestaudiofriends.org/index.php?threads/good-sound-quality-with-streaming-is-not-possible-without-using-optical-fiber.12588/

yeah, not possible. but there's a lot of stuff that's not on a scope with 997hz test tones that might be audible.

Cognitive dissonance is a bitch.

looks like Gustard is planning a pair of "audiophile" fibre optic converters: https://www.gustard.cn/?post_type=products&page_id=17677

Galvanic isolation and reduced RF induced noise, absolutely. Not digital voodoo though, the ones and zeroes remain the same.

I do think it’s weird that optical SPDIF is considered the worst when fiber is at the center of large networks. I don’t think it’s the medium itself and they just stopped improving optical SPDIF whereas network fiber kept improving

I’ve had it for almost a year, it’s very neat. Some peace of mind. Wish we could get a little streamer with a sfp cage.

Oh well one day. Ps audio has a new streaming with no Ethernet, wifi only. So maybe there is something to it.
