The experiment relies on the internal buffering on Meridian audio endpoints. The length of this buffering will depend on audio format (CD quality will provide longer potential to listen that 96/24) and very likely model. I have tried this on an MS600 and playing CD quality, approximately 8 seconds of audio was available. When unplugging the ethernet cable from the 818 during a/b testing, I found the music stopped less than half a second after the ethernet cable was unplugged  Same with my 861.
