Japanese company DELA Audio (formerly Melco) has released the DELA S5 Network Switch, an audiophile network switch. This model features a unique feature – user-adjustable Link Speed. This allows you to adjust the port speed from the front panel, choosing between low speed (for a more musical sound) and high speed (for high-load applications).
