  1. In the original review, there was a poorer sound from the NAS to the Majik DS-I than from a PC. I have been continuously ugrading my system over the last 6 months until I am almost where I want to be to hear music streamed from an NAS. One of the things I learned, much to my surprise, was that ethernet cables make a difference in the sound. This was found by a comparison of six cables in a German audiophile magazine http://meicord.de/userfiles/028_LAN-Kabel%20neu1.pdf and independently reported by somebody who modifies the Squeezebox touche http://soundcheck-audio.blogspot.com/2011/01/soundchecks-squeezebox-touch-toolbox-20.html . I bought a set of MeiCord cables http://meicord.de/page1.html, which are not cheap but they do ship internationally and can communicate in English if approached by email, connected the QNAP to the ethernet switch with one and the switch to my Sneaky with a second. Previously, I was using ethernet cables bought at the local computer shop. The difference was staggering! The standard ethernet cables were removing a lot of the musicality.<br /> <br /> I tried for quite a while to implement a wireless connection to the Sneaky via an Access Point but gave up in the end, not because I have drop outs but because the music wasn't there.<br /> <br /> Just my experience.<br /> <br /> Mark
