MELCO
CD DRIVE & DATA SWITCHES

"Decades in the making"

MELCO D100 CD DRIVE

The Melco D100 is a highly advanced Japanese-technology optical drive that reads optical discs, such as CDs, with great precision.

Using a D100 to ‘rip’ CD collections onto a Melco library or hard drive, allows for optimum data transfer in archive quality. The D100’s Melco-branded circuit board is further audiophile-optimised to deliver the highest performance ripping from CD.

Notably, the Melco D100 can even be used as a high-precision CD transport into a USB DAC.

MELCO S10 & S100/2 DATA SWITCHES

Melco S10 Data Switch

The Melco S10 flagship data switch comprises a ‘head’ unit and a power unit, separating the sensitive data-carrying areas of the design from the power supply. Melco's two-box approach echoes that of the Melco N10/2 music server, and offers the least compromise when it comes to ultimate sound quality.

The S10’s head unit is based on a heavily upgraded S100 network switch, and benefits from a greatly improved power management section, better aluminium casework and a rigid-steel screened chassis.

The rear panel connections include different-speed RJ45 Ethernet ports: 4x 100 MB and 4x 1 GB, plus 2x 1 GB SFP

Melco S100/2 Data Switch

The second generation Melco S100/2 data switch creates an ideal low-noise environment for networked music libraries to operate in, helping to deliver the best possible sound performance.

Compared to an ordinary IT data switch, the S100/2 offers extraordinary architecture, with two 1 GB SFP ports, two 100 Mb RJ45 ports for the best audio quality and six 1 Gb ports for PC connectivity, and other high-traffic-flow devices, such as the Roon Core processor.

The second generation S100/2 also gains an improved power circuit board with a carefully selected AC adapter.

Key Design Highlights

Melco S10 Data Switch

Two SFP ports allow for the connection of compatible optical fibre components, such as Lumin and Linn
A 1.5 MB of buffer capability to deal with erratic external connectivity, for a stable and resilient data stream
Audiophile techniques in the power supply with a bank of audio-grade capacitors to ensure the lowest noise environment
A rigid steel chassis with full aluminium casework

Melco S100/2 Data Switch

Two SFP ports allow for the connection of compatible optical fibre components, such as Lumin and Linn
1.5MB buffer capability for stable and reliable data
Improved power circuit board and audiophile supply implementation with a bank of audio-grade capacitors to ensure the lowest noise
Power supplies are external to the switch, giving good isolation and allowing for future upgrades
Mechanical stability contributes to system performance :
