Aurender N100H or A10
What is the difference between the two and is it worth the extra cash?

C2600. It sounds very good IMO. I tried the A10 and thought it sounded flat in comparison. I was surprised that it didn’t sound better or equal to the Mcintosh. I wanted to prefer it because it can also do MQA and would free me up to upgrade to a dedicated preamp without a Dac. It is using the same server as the N100H so it must have been their Dac application that didn’t float my boat. I still think it is a well built piece of equipment just that it would have been a step back from what I already have. Hope that helps |

Despite the comments from member Sea music about his personal experience with an A10 audition, how any audio component sounds is a highly subjective topic. No two people hear exactly the same, so trying to make a determination of your preference shouldn't be allowed to hinge on another person's perception. Audition both Aurender music servers yourself and make your own determination of their sound. Speaking of the DAC in the Aurender A10, the AKM AK4490 is a premium 32-bit 2 channel dual-mono DAC that achieves industry leading low-distortion characteristics and wide dynamic range. The AK4490 DAC integrates a newly developed switched capacitor filter "OSR Doubler", making it capable of supporting a wide range signals and achieving low out-of-band noise. In addition, the AK4490 has five types of 32-bit digital filters, realizing simple and flexible sound tuning in a wide range of applications. The AK4490 accepts up to 768 kHz PCM data and 11.2 MHz DSD data, ideal for a high-resolution audio source playback. You can be certain Aurender did not haphazardly choose the AKM AK4490 DAC for use in their A10 music server. Aurender music servers are outstanding audio source components. I don't think you can make a mistake choosing any of their servers. I own the Aurender N10 and the N100H and couldn't be happier. |
Thanks for the great input. I have the C2500 and while I enjoy the sound as most of us I am always looking for that little something extra. Since I am starting from scratch I did not want to buy something and always wonder what if! My big issue is I do not have an authorized dealer in the state.
