Melco Audiophile NAS

[Donuk]

Has anyone tried experimenting with the Melco in this way?

Assuming it is connected in a basic way, that is Network to Melco to Streamer to amplification.
Set up a playlist and set it playing.
Unplug the ethernet lead from the Network to the Melco. It is now isolated from the Network.
Ok you cannot control it (except maybe handset into the streamer). But is the sound noticeably better?
In this way you have isolated the home network.
I have tried this and cannot notice a difference. There may be various reasons for this. One might be that my Network may not be significantly noisy.
I also thought that the transformer inputs to the Melco were meant to trap most of the noise.
