Network Switches

@thyname Given your history with the Sonore products what is your opinion on the Sonore products and their place in this thread's discussion about Network Switches. My experience will have me continue to stay with the Rendu.

Oh they are great! As I said, I currently own a pair of opticalModules. In terms of streamers and servers, I was very happy with Sonore solutions, but I ended up getting an Innuos ZENith MK3 last January, that works well for me, and takes care of both streaming and "serving" (and CD ripping)

To be fair, I found some network switch mods or audiophile built products making mediocre or subtle improvements over stock one too. I think it also depend on which network switch you try and with what device and application you play with.

If designer has good reference ears and can tell good quality from listening rather than just specsheet alone, he usually build something he can truly enjoy with his standards.

For those who never have any real experience before, they shouldn't assume too much. I'm also challenging network experts here in Thailand for testing switch in multimedia. Hopefully someone will join up.
