What a website!
If anyone haven't seen velvetsound website, I encourage you to do that.
All the time I had to rpeat to myself - "this is IC manufacturer", 
because it doesn't look look like any.
Stunning pictures, with colors processed so much they become unreal, the 
video included contains only the finest marketing blah blah. It all 
looks like company building luxury houses.

AKM knows best where the money is. Have you checked recently how 
expensive is audio-grade power cable for audio-grade ethernet switch?
