Aurender N100H Music Server & Player

The Aurender N100H digital music player supports DSD (DSF, DFF), WAV, FLAC, ALAC, APE, AIFF, M4A and other major formats at native bit and sampling rates. Equipped with a high performance USB digital audio output, Ethernet port,  120GB solid-state drive for cached playback, the N100H is also the ideal solution for playing high resolution digital music collections from NAS. • 120GB SSD for caching playback • 2TB internal storage • Cached playback of internal and NAS contents • Clean USB audio class 2.0 output • Full linear power supply • Machined aluminum case • 3.0 inch AMOLED display • Switchable for a variety of modes, including names of artists and music titles • Gigabit Ethernet LAN Port for network connectivity • Award-winning Aurender App with convenient features • Remote internet technical support   Innovative Technology The N100H digital music player incorporates many innovations originally developed for the higher priced Aurender S10 and W20 models, including a solid-state drive cache for playback which eliminates  latency and drop-outs from NAS drives. The high performance USB digital audio output was developed using the same engineering as the USB outputs on the flagship Aurender W20.   Gigabit Ethernet LAN Port for Network Connectivity For network connectivity, streaming, upgrades and file transfers, the N100H has a Gigabyte Ethernet port along with two USB 2.0 data ports for copying files from USB memories.   Aurender App with Convenient Features The Aurender Condutor App turns the iPad into a versatile user interface for Aurender Music Players and makes managing, viewing and playing high resolution music collections a breeze. All settings and functions of the Aurender Music Server/Player can be easily accessed through the Settings menu of the Aurender App. Android App(Lite Version) is also available. AMM(Aurender Media Manager) - cover art & other meta-tag support for contents on the NAS The Aurender Music Server/Player series could play contents on the NAS by file/folder browsing. With the help of AMM for PC/Mac, N100H and all other existing Aurender Music server series can display and use meta-tag information of the contents on the NAS the same as the content in the Aurender's internal Storage. Network streaming with Solid-State Drive Cache for Playback If a selected song or album is already cached to the solid-state drive, N100H will play from the internal SSD. This minimizes wear and tear on the NAS drive. Also, by caching songs to the solid-state drive for playback, it eliminates music quality degradation or even drop outs of music due to non-optimal network connection from the NAS to the streamer.   Dedicated USB Audio Class 2.0 Output with Noise Free Power Circuitry 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.   Full Linear Power Supply A full linear power supply provides clean and stable power to the CPU circuit and audio output circuit.

You don't get features such as dual-wire AES and clock input, but most users don't need those capabilities anyway. The internal storage is 2TB rather than 12TB, but you can always add a NAS drive for more capacity. What you do get is the same outstanding Conductor app, Tidal integration, and remote support. Aurender's Conductor app for iPad is by far the best RH has used-fast, visually appealing, stable, intuitive, capable, and uncluttered, with features that have been clearly refined through actual use. Sonically, the N100H comes pretty close to the W20's state-of-the-art performance, particularly considering the cost differential. Both Aurender servers exhibit an analog-like ease, dimensionality, spaciousness, and bloom all too often missing from digital reproduction. Having used the N100H and W20 side-by-side, RH can say that the N100H offers the identical user experience and many of the flagship's sonic virtues for a lot less money..." RH
