Thanks for the feedback. I guess the key to my question was whether or not it was worth getting a managed switch, and somehow prioritising the Devialet via AIR Ethernet. I was half expecting some IT language heavy responses that I didn't fully understand! Although it looks like a rather simpler answer, "no". Thinking about my set up, if I am streaming to AIR, then the chances are that all other devices running off the switch box will be idle. I don't watch IPlayer on the smart TV at the same time as streaming music, for example. So it looks like a cheap and cheerful TP link type device is all I need. It is easy to get carried away with these things though!
