I'm the person who's been having a play with the settings in the GS108T. I've come to these settings and like it. You may need to pull the speakers forward a tad.
System: SNMP: Trap Flags: all enable (these are on by default)
Switching: Voice LAN: disable
Switching: STP: enable
Switching: Multicast: Auto Video: enable
Switching: Multicast: IGMP Snooping configuration: all 3 enable
These aren't definitive, but a place to start.
Tried this in my switch, only when at the last point I had a problem:
- Switching: Multicast: IGMP Snooping configuration: all 3 enable
> if I enable 'Block Unknown Multicast Address' I cannot find the Kalla anymore in Spotify, what am I doing wrong?
I was a bit too fast, as also in the previous reply this issue was posted....

I don't have a Kalla or use Spotify, I have a Hakai, so that didn't happen to me. If that setting needs to be off, then leave it off.

I do not know which WiFi-to-Ethernet converter Fredrik found sounding better than a cabled connection but from the reports on other audio forums this device seems to fulfill this qualification:
We haven't tested that particular model, but some others. And the best sounding one was a TP-Link called TL-WR802N. There's a similar looking model ending with AC that is not as good.
It's a mini travel router, which in this application you set to Client Mode and connect it with an ethernet cable to Källa. The supplied 5V mains adapter doesn't sound great and is best replaced by one of the bigger Apple adapters (we found the 96W model sounded best but the next one down isn't bad either).
We found this arrangement sounding better than a regular cabled connection and a GS-108T switch in only one network. Interestingly, in that same network and using a cabled connection, adding a GS-108T switch didn't bring any improvement. So apparently this network was an outlier. In all other networks, adding the switch improved the music.
When using this WiFi-to-Ethernet adapter, adding a switch never seems beneficial.
So that 96W apple adapter you refer to is that the fast charging USB-C type with cable going from C to micro USB ?

Any ideas?
Found the solution to this 'issue', when you assign a fixed ip address to Kalla the settins for Enabling of 'Block Unknown Multicast Address' is no problem any more :)

Hmm too soon I think, it stopped again all of a sudden... never mind, keep it disabled and all works fine :)
I don't know how DHCP affects the sound as all devices on my network have fixed IP addresses. Källa like Fredrik recommends outside the range. Would just try
I've been doing testing on which network port on the Amplifi HD sounds the best. When looking at the back of it, the lower left is the one. It's labelled number 3. Both of my Amplifi's (sender and receiver) agree with this. See what you think. All 4 ports sound different. If possible, don't have anything else connected to them. Not possible in a lot of situations I know.
