Yes, thank you indeed for sharing. I do have the AQVox and quite like it, no complaints so far. As for the $5000 unit, the company has got to be kidding us. My take on the situation: since streaming music is the new rage these days, some companies think this is the new snake oil to make money.

I have noticed recently that there are some interesting new products arriving in this category, in particular, new products from UptoneAudio and SOtM.
First the SOtM switch:
The SOtM switch will have 8 LAN ports and 2 SFP ports, the sCLK-EX clock board will be an option. Due to be released at this years Munich high end show, not many details yet but we do have some pictures.
Next the UptoneAudio switch, still a work in progress with the release planned for this summer:

Last but not least, the JCAT M12 Switch Gold. Although it may be last and least interesting, or should I say last but most expensive. $5000 anyone? (4165 Euros) As a warning, the link below includes a "Buy Now" button, be careful where you are clicking!

My bet, the Uptone switch is expected to be under $500 and I think it might just prove to be the best of the bunch. Time will tell.
