Offered is „Dela/Melco S100/A Ethernet-Switch“ by DELA as second-hand device from the category „Ethernet switches“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8723257500 ends on 22.10.2026 at 15:20 o'clock.
Versus a new audiophile network switch or a pricier aftermarket streamer accessory, €1,370 is a strong buy on this one: it lands right at the 25th percentile of recent used EUR listings, below the €1,445 median and well under the €1,986 upper quartile. That makes it a bargain rather than just “market-correct,” especially for a name-brand piece with real demand in serious digital setups.
This line is well regarded for solid build quality, quiet operation, and the kind of network housekeeping that can give a streamer a cleaner, more stable feed. That tends to matter most in systems where the rest of the digital chain is already sorted, so the upside is practical rather than flashy. If the unit is clean and complete, it looks like a worthwhile pickup at this price.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
DELA traces its roots to 1975, when Makoto Maki, a passionate audiophile, founded Melco—short for Maki Engineering Laboratory Company—in Nagoya, Japan. Starting amid financial challenges, Maki opened the Mel Shop in the Ame-Yoko Radio Center, transforming it into a vibrant hub for audio enthusiasts. This laid the foundation for innovation, evolving through Buffalo, Melco's parent company, which leveraged its audio heritage to pioneer PC peripherals before returning to pure sound reproduction.
Under the DELA banner—a rebranding of Melco announced in 2025 to mark its 50th anniversary—the brand specializes in high-end digital music systems. It excels in network streamers, music servers, and audiophile-grade network switches, such as the N1-S38B Digital Music Library and the entry-level S50 switch. These components prioritize transmission quality, blending Japanese engineering precision with intuitive usability for seamless digital playback.
DELA holds a prestigious position in the high-end hi-fi market, revered by discerning music lovers for delivering music in its purest, most emotional form. As a niche boutique from Buffalo's technology empire, it commands respect among streaming enthusiasts, offering reference-level performance that rivals top-tier competitors while emphasizing handmade quality and audio-centric innovation.
