EtherREGEN review is up at Hans Beekhuzen's channel
Hans has a very favorable review of the Uptone Audio EtherREGEN at his YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/Io4SDi5hLxs
Hans does a particularly good job of explaining the board design, the ADIM (isolation moat) and the separation between the two zones that prevent the passage of low- and high-impedance leakage currents from one side getting to the other (this is important with respect to sound quality).
His comments and summary are right on the money. The only thing I would add is that I note a larger improvement in audio quality using optical fiber than Hans says he obtains. I attribute this to differences in systems and system-level noise in different customer use-cases. I live right next to some big power line transmission towers, so that may play a role.

Re: EtherREGEN review is up at Hans Beekhuzen's channel
I watched the video while I was having my morning coffee. Hans has a way of clarifiing how things work. Especially in the digital side of audio. I've cleaned up my digital end I think as far as I want to go. Having said that, I did see Mike post the new Shunyata Alpha USB cable recently. I wonder if that may be my next upgrade. I'm currently running a Cardas USB cable from the T2 to the Diablo.

The Shunyata Alpha USB cable is freakin' A-MAZING. I upgraded last spring and it was one of the most significant upgrades I've ever made to my digital system.
So also are the Shunyata Ethernet cables...even the $295 entry-level Venom blows all the Ethernet cables I tested extensively last year into the weeds. The Alpha and Sigma are notable steps above that.
