Muon2 is Network Acoustics’ reference Network Switch, designed to deliver the cleanest possible signal to your music and video streamers Available in high gloss Black or Silver finishes and comes supplied with Network Acoustics’ Pyramid Isolators, and mains power cable for your region. Inside Muon2 At the heart of Muon2 lies its integrated and unique hybrid power supply, building on the technology use in the award-winning Origin Power Supply to combine the precision and dynamics of switch-mode operation with the fluid, low-noise behaviour of linear delivery. The result is a silent electrical environment allowing for accurate timing which is essential for musical realism. The solid beechwood enclosure is crafted from a hand-selected piece of wood and precision-milled by high-end speaker maker AUER Acoustics. Beech was chosen after exhaustive materials testing for its uniquely balanced and neutral sonic character. Its natural damping eliminates the resonances and colouration that metal and composite housings introduce. Supporting this are Network Acoustics’ newly developed Pyramid Isolators. Hand machined from hardened silicate minerals and tapered to a point, each isolator presents the smallest possible contact to the base of the Muon2 switch eliminating the transmission of surface-borne vibration into the chassis. The audible effect is even greater focus, improved micro-detail, and a more stable soundstage. Co-Founder Rich Trussell says: “In creating the Muon2, our priority was to enhance every aspect of a switch’s performance. While the motherboard and clock are important, our research and listening tests constantly demonstrated the defining factors lie in the power supply and in controlling vibration through careful enclosure design and isolation.” Engineered Without Compromise The Muon2 Network Switch is the result of 7-years of listening-led development in noise rejection, materials science, and power delivery. Key innovations include: Single-chassis architecture: complete segregation of signal and power domains ensuring total isolation. New generation hybrid power supply, designed for ultra-quiet dynamic power delivery. Precision-machined solid beechwood enclosure, developed in partnership with speaker cabinet specialists AUER Acoustics, chosen for its remarkable vibration damping properties Network Acoustics Pyramid Isolators, specifically developed to decouple the Muon2 chassis from external vibration. Ultra-low-jitter clock for precise timing and exceptional musical realism. Future proofed connectivity: 5 x 10Mb–2.5Gb LAN and 1 x 10Gb SFP+ ports Dedicated grounding point for use with external grounding devices. Finishes: high-gloss metallic black or silver. Each Muon2 Network Switch is hand-assembled and individually tested in the UK against a reference system to guarantee consistent performance. Streaming First And Last As with all Network Acoustics products, the Muon2 is purpose-built to eliminate noise and jitter, preserving the precise timing needed for accurate digital-to-analogue conversion. The result is music with greater detail, space, and a natural sense of flow and openness that makes it sound truly real. With the Muon2 Network Switch, Network Acoustics have transformed the idea of a “network switch” into an essential audiophile component, one that lets high-end streamers and DACs reveal their full musical potential. Co-Founder Rob Osbourn says: “All our products are hand‑engineered and manufactured in the UK. This might mean we can’t make the cheapest switch, but we can make the best. Thanks to our unique expertise and holistic design approach, we’ve explored every possibility in the creation of the Muon2, and the result is what we believe to be the finest network switch available today. It’s a bold claim, so we invite listeners to decide if we’re right.” Specifications Dimensions (with feet): 290 mm (w) 290 mm (d) x 90 mm (h) Weight: 3300 g Power Input: IEC 100-240 V / 50 / 60 Hz Power Consumption: 5W Box Contents Muon2 Network Switch IEC Mains Power Cable Quick Start User Guide 3 x Pyramid Isolators Pyramid Isolator positioning template Certificate of Authenticity
