In Reply to: RE: Why is the physical placement of NAS changing the sound??? posted by eduardoo on May 24, 2016 at 18:33:55:
You have a complicated setup. If you are trying to understand what is going wrong, then I suggest you strip things down to the minimum needed to play music and add components back in one at a time. (This is called a "start small" diagnostic strategy.) Otherwise there are too many variables.
However, if it were my system, before doing any of this I would remove the NAS from the room. These machines generally have good air circulation to keep lots of disks cool and hence there is a lot of acoustic and electrical noise. I kept mine in the closet, but then I realized that I could still hear noise from it and that playback from the NAS did not sound as good as playback from a RAM disk in my PC. So I keep the NAS powered down except when I actually need it. (Mostly at night for backups.)
But it wouldn't surprise me that moving something that is even powered down might not change the sound in a room. Or even rerouting cables with no other change.
