I'd rather run it through my system and find out if I could hear

RG6 type cable is basically all you need.
You could order raw coax from http://www.bluejeanscable.com/
I would email their customer service and ask. They were very helpful
when I needed a very long HDMI cable.

I would probably use the analog out from the transporter into the SC-27.
Using the other amplifier isn't going to be great because it doesn't
seem to have any good switching for selecting the RCA or balanced
input.

Thanks. I did that some time ago, and also used TCP Optimiser as per
suggestions for TT 2.0. None of that made any difference I could
detect.

Whilst listening to music my mind wandered into why my last test may
have shown the situation being even worse when directly connected than
when through a network with 3 switches and various bits of cable of
various ages. I also wondered by the CPU usage went lower when the
Touch was rebuffering.

To make sure that the network is not the root cause for network related
issues, you connect the server directly via cable to the client:
1. assign static IP address to your server
2. assign static IP to your Touch
3. Powerdown both
4. Hook up the cable
5. Power up the both

The point is that you may have a network that is 90% fine, but that

There are too many variables involved in this, and I don't have
sufficient diagnostic tools or knowledge to take it further with a

I still wonder if my using Analogue out is making a difference. I see

So you are implying that there may be physical differences between 2
Touch units running identical firmware?
Do you have information that there are multiple hardware revisions of
the Touch?

So how do you know the problem is not related to that switch or those

1. That's what I'm saying. It can't be the network load.
