Audio network switches for digital Hi-Fi setups

Network Stability for Digital Audio

When you listen to music digitally using streamers, music servers, network players, or other network devices, your home network suddenly plays a more important role in your audio setup. An audio network switch helps connect multiple devices reliably within a single network. It may not be the most eye-catching part of your setup, but it’s one that becomes important as soon as digital audio takes on a more prominent role in how you listen.

What does an audio network switch do?

A network switch distributes network traffic among different devices within the same network. In an audio setup, for example, this means that your streamer, music server, NAS, and other network components can communicate with each other. Here are some of the things you’ll find:
  • network switches for digital audio setups
  • Compact switches for smaller network setups
  • Solutions for setups with multiple digital audio sources
  • Used network hardware for expanding existing systems
Depending on your setup, this can be a simple, practical addition or an integral part of a comprehensive digital ecosystem.

Why use a network switch in an audio setup?

As more digital components come together, network architecture becomes more important. Consider applications such as:
  • Connecting streamers to your home network
  • Connecting music servers to network players
  • Setting Up NAS Storage in Your System
  • Connecting multiple digital audio components in an organized manner
  • a more stable network architecture for digital audio
For those who listen exclusively to analog audio, this is completely irrelevant. For digital listeners, however, it is often quite relevant.

New and Used Audio Network Switches

Network hardware doesn’t always have to be complicated or brand-new to work well. Especially for practical applications, used solutions can still be highly relevant. Our selection changes regularly. Sometimes we have a modern switch ready for a sleek digital setup. Other times, we receive something that fits perfectly into an existing network configuration. As is often the case: sometimes you’re looking for something very specific, and other times you don’t realize you actually need it until you’re setting things up.

What should you look for when choosing an audio network switch?

Not every switch is automatically compatible with every digital setup. Key points to note:
  • number of network ports
  • Compatibility with your existing network
  • speed and network standard
  • Size and practical placement
  • Use in your digital audio setup
Above all, a solution must make logical sense in terms of how your network and audio equipment work together.

Why browse our selection of audio network switches?

Because digital audio is sometimes just as much about infrastructure as it is about the source itself. Sometimes you’re specifically looking for a practical addition to your network. Other times, you’re setting up a digital system and naturally end up with this kind of hardware. Whether new or used, solutions regularly pop up here that make your digital audio setup just that little bit more complete.

CD

De Compact Disc (CD) kwam zoals de meeste uitvindingen niet uit de lucht vallen. Na de uitvinding van de laser in 1958 werd in 1961 het eerste octrooi voor optisch leesbare schijven ingediend. In 1972 werden de eerste digitale videoplaten geïntroduceerd. Na een flop van Philips kwam de fabrikant in 1979 samen met Sony met de eerste cd, wat erop stond weten wij niet maar in 1982 kwam de eerste cd voor de markt uit, het was het album Visitors van ABBA. In dit jaar kwam de eerste speler beschikbaar en zo begon de verdrijving van de lp uit de markt. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen. Heb je cd’s, geniet er vooral nog eens van, ze hebben immers geen oneindige levensduur.

The Compact Disc (CD), like most inventions, did not appear out of thin air. After the invention of the laser in 1958, the first patent for optically readable disks was filed in 1961. The first digital video records were introduced in 1972. After a flop by Philips, the manufacturer, together with Sony, released the first CD in 1979. We do not know what it contained, but in 1982 the first CD was released for the market, it was the album Visitors by ABBA. In this year the first player became available and so began the elimination of the LP from the market. Many have literally thrown their LPs in the trash… we still see some visitors being disappointed when they tell us this. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen.
