The Waversa SmartHub 3.0 is a purpose-built gigabit switching hub engineered specifically for high-end audio networks. This pre-owned unit is in great condition, finished in aluminium, and supplied with its original 7 V power adapter. No other accessories or packaging are included.
By running entirely from an internal battery supply during playback and employing an audio-grade high-precision clock, the Waversa SmartHub 3.0 removes both internal and cable-borne noise, delivering a lower noise floor and improved timing accuracy to streamers, DACs and network-attached storage.
Visit our Lane Cove showroom to hear the difference a properly engineered network switch can make with the SmartHub 3.0 switch.
Why Choose the Waversa SmartHub 3.0 Switch?
The SmartHub 3.0 is a fully proprietary, ultra-low-noise gigabit hub designed from the ground up for critical digital audio applications.
• Battery Isolation: Internal lithium-ion cells power the circuitry during listening, isolating the signal path from the mains.
• Jitter Reduction: Dedicated audio-grade OCXO clock ensures precise timing for network and USB data.
• Mechanical Integrity: Solid aluminium unibody construction controls vibration and provides excellent shielding.
• Clean USB Ports: Two USB-A ports actively reduce noise for USB audio devices.
• Intelligent Power Management: Automatic charge/discharge system allows continuous battery operation with external power used only for charging and display.
Come and discover the Waversa SmartHub 3.0 at our Lane Cove showroom to experience the quieter backgrounds and improved focus it brings to a networked audio system.
Waversa has focused on eliminating noise at every possible point. The absence of LED indicators, the use of a high-precision clock, and the aluminium unibody all contribute to a fundamentally quieter signal path. Network cable noise is also filtered, helping downstream components perform closer to their potential.
The full graphic display provides clear status information for network activity and battery condition without introducing electrical interference into the audio path.
This combination of careful engineering makes the SmartHub 3.0 a highly effective upgrade for any serious digital streaming setup.

Compared with the obvious alternative at A$2,200—a price that can buy a lot of mid-tier used digital gear—this looks fair rather than cheap, because it lands exactly on your median used-market anchor and well above the A$1,622 25th percentile. It is not a bargain by percentile math, but it is priced in line with the current market for this class of Waversa piece.
What makes it interesting is the battery-powered isolation angle: that is the sort of feature buyers chase for a quieter, more settled network front end, especially in systems where switch noise or PSU quality matters. If the unit is complete and healthy, this is the kind of item that tends to reward careful owners with an easy, low-drama upgrade; at A$2,200, the main thing to verify is that the battery operation is working as intended and that any original power supply or extras are included.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Waversa Systems emerged in 2012 from South Korea, founded by Collin Shin, who brought over 30 years of expertise in IT technologies and valve-based circuit design. The brand name blends "wave" and "versatile," reflecting its mission to fuse telecommunications, military, medical, and security innovations with digital audio. Shin's vision drove the integration of cutting-edge chip design, software algorithms, and hardware manufacturing, creating proprietary solutions that extend beyond Waversa's own lineup to partner companies.
The company specializes in high-end digital audio components, including DACs like the acclaimed V DAC MKII, which digitally replicates the harmonics of a 1942 Western Electric 300B tube for analog-like warmth. Signature technologies such as the Waversa Audio Processor (WAP)—a multi-stage system of FIR and IIR filters for upsampling and error reduction—power products like the WBridge Standard digital hub, supporting inputs from Ethernet to HDMI and outputs up to 32-bit/384kHz PCM or DSD256. Complementary accessories, including LAN isolators and Ethernet filters with patented electromagnetic noise reduction, target streaming and network purity.
Positioned as a niche boutique in the ultra-high-end market, Waversa earns praise among audiophiles for rethinking digital processing to mimic analog fidelity, bridging CD-era limitations with computer audio sophistication. Its military-grade tech and in-house innovations command premium prices, appealing to discerning buyers seeking transformative digital performance over conventional hi-fi fare.
