Description
The award-winning Aurender N10 contains many trickle-down technologies from the flagship W20, and delivers exceptional performance at its price point.
Its 12kg aluminium chassis is carefully designed and constructed to minimise vibration. It shares a simplified version of the W20’s extraordinary, FPGA-based phase-locked loop system with oven-controlled crystal oscillators, delivering jitter levels measured in femtoseconds—millionths of a billionths of second, a time so short that light travels only 0.3µm.
Two internal hard drives provide 4TB of storage and a 240G solid-state drive is used to cache music for playback. If a selected song or album is already cached to the solid-state drive, the hard drive will remain asleep. This minimizes wear and tear on the hard drive. By caching songs to the solid-state drive for playback, electrical and acoustic noise resulting from spinning disks, moving heads and motors are also completely eliminated.
The Aurender N10 provides exceptional digital signal quality on all its digital outputs, spanning optical, coax (RCA and BNC), XLR and USB. The dedicated USB Audio Class 2.0 output is designed to deliver an exceptionally transparent audio signal free of noise, and is shielded from outside electronic interference. Notably, DSD files can be converted on the fly to PCM using a state-of-the-art FPGA converter.
In common with all Aurender models, the N10 is controlled via the dedicated Aurender Conductor app which has a well-deserved reputation for its performance and intuitive operation. This app was developed in-house by Aurender, and makes the very best use of their hardware. It is carefully optimised for managing large music databases, providing exceptionally fast browsing and search facilities for your music library. Aurender also offers remote technical support directly through the app, where their engineers can quickly diagnose and correct problems over the Internet.
In addition, all Aurender servers and players fully support the TIDAL music service, which offers 35 million lossless CD quality music tracks.
