N10 Replacement Coming
I am in the market to replace my Mac Mini with an Aurender N10. Has anyone heard of a pending replacement for the N10? I would hate to invest in a N10 and find out it is being replaced soon after my purchase.

The A30 looks like a beast, though I wish it did not have the built-in CD ripper. Other than that, it looks like a killer app. Has anyone here heard one? Thanks.

W20 is already a few years longer in the market then the N10, W20 probably will get an update sooner.
A30 is in my eyes completely different to N10/W20, I am not looking for a streamer with built in DAC/PRE.

This could be an interesting all-in-one unit if the built-in CD ripper was a universal disc player instead. Seems like it's in a similar ballpark to the dCS Bartok with the built-in headphone amp.

I saw this on the Axpona website last night, might have to actually go this year to check it out.

I wonder how the Dacs of the A30 stack up to that of a well regarded Dac? I.,e. Is it really a one box solution?
