In Reply to: RE: Wireless Router Contamination of Sound? posted by jfz on June 21, 2012 at 05:40:03
I'm not using, nor do I plan on using, a computer for audio. I am only concerned with whether having a wireless router in the house will cause a degradation of audio quality in a high-end CD-only based system.

I would hazard to guess that wireless router will add to the contamination - but if you're serious about treating your system (and your house) for RFI/EMI, the effect would be negligible.
Radio frequencies are all around us; everywhere and always. That is just a fact of modern life. You can not escape RF. Adding your own RF signal to the existing miasma will make no difference.

Related... Often, the audible clicks and crackles that people hear through their audio systems are from electronic components cycling on and off, such as the burners on an electric stove. Continuous interference may be from the wonderful electronic ballasts on many flourescent lights (designed to help save the planet by using less electricity).
I haven't heard any negative effects since getting a wireless router - maybe because the frequencies are way up in the bazillion GHz range.

I know that's true about radio frequencies. My experience so far, however, is that adding my own (microwave)to the miasma does make a difference; i.e., music is more enjoyable with it unplugged.

I misunderstood. I assumed you meant does the router affect the streamed files.
In my three systems I have never noticed any issue with having the router. The router is in fact right next to one system, and directly below one other, so far no issues, or degradation in sound that I can tell.
No issues whatsoever due to the presence of a wireless router here. In fact Pandora "Premium" is playing Clark Terry right now in a system right next to the router and it sounds great. Another system in a dedicated listening room well away from the router does not suffer either.
