I recently acquired a pair of Buffalo GS2008 switches, I recall reading that the Melco switches were just the GS2016 Buffalo switches with half the ports disabled and settings configured a certain way. Does anyone know what those correct settings are on the Buffalo switches to maximize audio performance?

Thanks, did a quick search in that forum, for anyone else curious, essentially the settings are:
Disable LLDP
Disable EEE
Disable Jumbo Frame
Disable ADP
Enable Flow Control

I also updated the firmware to the latest. First impression is that the sound has become a bit less liquid and more analytical, will have to assess further.
