Now the 10Gtek and the Ansuz PowerSwitch have a break: the Melco Switch takes over, on which - if I understand correctly - the Fibre Set was developed. It is connected to the Melco N1Z/2EX-H60 and the Aries G2.1 via the Ansuz Ethernet cables supplied with various voltages by the Ansuz PowerSwitch and to the router via the fibre optic cable. It is always amazing in how many disciplines the Melco switch comes extremely close to the one from Ansuz. The only thing I wished for here was a little more smoothness in the high-frequency range - a really outrageous wish, considering the huge price difference between the two switches. After listening two or three times to one of my test tracks, I switch the 10Gtek for the ADOT near the router - and hear nothing. The Aries complains that it can't make contact with the network. This only works when I remove the restrictions on the ADOT media converter to 100 megabits. Then the Melco N1Z/2EX-H60 also wants to be restarted. Despite the delay, it is clear from the first bars of Keith Jarrett's "God Bless The Child" that the ADOT provides more joy, pressure and openness. No wishes remain unfulfilled! But let's go back to Symphony No. 15: Here the high frequency range comes across a touch softer - very nice.
