Aurender N10 - Stereophile A+ Recommended Component
 

The April 2018 edition of Stereophile is out. Great to see the Aurender N10 music server recommended as an A+ component. In the populated segment of digital music servers, this is high praise. I could not be happier with my Aurender N10 and its Conductor App.

Dan,

First, gorgeous equipment. Love the Mac Tuner!

But yeah, the N10 is a tremendous piece of gear. Pretty much universally praised.

Tim.......Thank you for the compliment on my studio system gear.

As for the Aurender N10, it didn't take Stereophile to make me a believer. This music server is as slick as it gets, fabulous sound, incredible Conductor control app, dead silent in operation, plenty of onboard storage, network compatibility, NAS connectivity, customized Linux operating system, oven controlled crystal oscillator clock, gorgeous case, Tidal streaming, Internet radio streaming, and now the second software unfold of MQA Master titles on Tidal. The Aurender N10 delivers consistently remarkable performance, rock solid reliability, and the support of a well established electronics manufacturer. In my opinion, this is THE music server to own. The A+ Recommended Component rating bestowed on the Aurender N10 by Stereophile is well deserved.

Dan, Love hearing about your N10 and it makes me think about moving up often. For now I am pleased with my N100C (4TB) and it is performing for me in an excellent manner. I found it to be my personal sweet spot, at least for now. The digital universe is ever changing and if and when the dust settles I could see the N10, or it's future iteration, being on top of the Esoteric K-03x, or what comes next for that as well :) . Glad you are happy and enjoying such an excellent component.

Jim.......I can certainly relate to your satisfaction with the Aurender N100C. I have the same respect and admiration for the performance of my N100H in the living room system. Aurender is serious about their music servers at all levels. My N100H continues to mesmerize me every time I listen to it. You made a good choice with the N100C. The additional connectivity provides options and real value.

Vava voom , very nice

David.......I never thought of the studio system in quite that term but I like it. Thank you. . ;)
