RE: AQVox AQ-SWITCH-8 - Confused - 17-May-2017 I think you can sometimes learn more about a company when things are not going so well, rather than when they are going fully to plan. Anyway, I sent the Aqvox switch back last week and yesterday I received a full refund, which included the original cost of postage from Germany to the UK. OK, I had to pay the postage for return, but all things considered I think this is excellent service. So if anyone else is considering the Aqvox switch and is not sure due to my rather negative posts versus some other very positive posts, I can at least confirm that the refund policy is fair, so nothing to worry about in that regard. So I am now wondering about the JCat alternaive, which at Euro 195 is a lot cheaper than the Aqvox, until you consider that they advise that you use it with a high quality LPSU, which makes it much more expensive that the Aqvox. The trouble is, I can find very little information on the JCat at the moment, so I think I'll sit back and wait for a while. http://jplay.eu/jcat/#manual12 RE: AQVox AQ-SWITCH-8 - GuillaumeB - 17-May-2017 (17-May-2017, 12:30)Confused Wrote: I think you can sometimes learn more about a company when things are not going so well, rather than when they are going fully to plan. That's good to hear. Guillaume RE: AQVox AQ-SWITCH-8 - K4680 - 24-Aug-2017 Hello, have some time ago a page in the net with the comprehensive information around computer audio, software, hardware etc. found. Maybe someone already knows the site, for those who do not know. http://www.thewelltemperedcomputer.com/index.html RE: AQVox AQ-SWITCH-8 - GuillaumeB - 25-Aug-2017 (25-Aug-2017, 09:25)Robert Wrote: Thanks K4680. Very interested in this. Guillaume RE: AQVox AQ-SWITCH-8 - K4680 - 08-Sep-2017 Hi, in the near future there is a new version of the Aqvox LAN Switch. An "SE" version https://www.hifistatement.net/tests/item/2097-aqvox-lan-detoxer-rj45-kappen RE: AQVox AQ-SWITCH-8 - Robert - 12-Sep-2017 So the link relates to AQVOX's new detoxer. I understand the better version of the switch will retail for between 600/800 €. It will sell in parallel to the existing switch.

Also my suggestion is to take a grounding wire from the back of the AQVOX switch and attach it a suitable earthing point. Experiment with different grounding points or attach to a grounding box if you have one.

Excerpt from the report: "Actually, I wanted to introduce you to the SE version of the AQ-Switch-8, but had to refrain from it because Susanne Candeias and Norman Lübke had created an even better variant, which is now on the way to Gröbenzell......" RE: AQVox AQ-SWITCH-8 - Robert - 13-Sep-2017 Thank you K4680 RE: AQVox AQ-SWITCH-8 - K4680 - 06-Oct-2017 Hi all, the new improved AQVox Switch-SE is available!
