Two additional SFP ports allow for connection of optical fibre for components such as Lumin that support it. There are four 1Gb ports – these are ideal for PC connectivity, and are ideal for the Roon Core processor which generates high traffic flow. There are four 100Mb RJ45 ports – these provide the best audio quality. The Melco S100 is quite an unusual architecture compared to an IT dataswitch.

The Melco S100 is designed and configured as an audiophile component without any IT compromises. One critical component is all digital music systems is the dataswitch which handles both the music data and control. But they are simply inadequate for high quality digital music. IT components are low cost commodity items and are effective for PC data and gaming etc. The limitation to the ultimate sound quality of digital music on an Ethernet network is the network itself and the components used. TO DEVICE USB type A port is for USB-DAC playback with N1 USB Local playback function. TO HOST USB type B port is for N1 or PC to read the disc data. The MELCO Highly Stable Storage System holds the whole drive mechanism with their dedicated technology.Ī dedicated PCB holds capacitors for the power supply and quality clock generator for better signal transmission. The case is designed the same concept as most recent MELCO music library products.Ģ mm thick under chassis supports the whole case with great rigidity.īeautifully designed thick aluminum case is half size of N1A and fits most of desktop USB-DACs.Ĩ.5lbs (almost 3x that of similar IT drives) It can be turned off with the dedicated power switch. The MELCO branded circuit board is optimised from audiophile point of view to promise the highest quality transport and ripping of CD into N1. The D100 embeds the most recent generation of Japanese hi end optical drive which reads CD and Optical Discs with great precision.
