I'm still sick as a dog but I got the Aurender A10 up and running. WOW!!!! This is one hell of a system. Once I'm feeling better and had a chance to play around with the A10 I will give a more comprehensive review. At this point, If anyone is on the fence about laying out the $s to get one of these, go for it. You will not be disappointed.

Started doing some listening to the A10 and am VERY pleased. I understand that many are not going with an all in one (dac,storage etc) but for me this was the right move. The only thing I need to do is getting to understand how to use the "conductor" app..
It may be "intuitive" to most but I guess I have past the age of intuitiveness. I'm sure that ability will come with time. As far as the sound,,,, I couldn't be happier. So far I have been using the A10 as a Tidal streamer. Having a great built in DAC has opened new levels of enjoyment!!!!
As I recover from the pneumonia (very slow going) I should become better with control of all the built in features.

Where can one find the "conductor" app? Don't see it on Apple.

Mac6.......This app is only available on the Apple App Store. Search for Aurender Conductor

Have spent the morning listening to the Aurender A10 I could not be happier. The ease of operation is excellent (not taking the meds for the pneumonia anymore is a real benefit to understanding )It is very straight forward. And the sound, well it is excellent as well. I can hear the improvement as the resolution of the music changes. All in all this has been one of the best additions to my system.

Ed, glad to hear you are feeling better. How do MQA files sound going through the A10?

The files sounded great. To me it is well worth the cost of admission. The sound is so much richer. I hope to see more as time goes on. It just adds to the pleasure of listening.

Continuing to enjoy the A10. The conductor app makes selection fast and easy. I connected the balanced analogue outputs from the Aurender A10 to the balanced inputs of the Mcintosh C2300. One of the things I like with the A10 is that it is an all in one solution with the option of using a different DAC if I should choose to in the future.
