The Aurender N10 is a reference-class caching music server and streamer, known for its superior digital audio outputs and robust storage capabilities. It features a proprietary Aurender CPU board with 4GB of memory, supporting high-resolution music streaming from popular services and internet radio. The N10 includes a range of digital outputs such as USB, AES/EBU, Coaxial, BNC, and Optical, with the USB supporting sampling rates up to 32-bit/384kHz and DSD128, and SPDIF supporting up to 24-bit/192kHz and DSD64. It employs an Oven-Controlled Crystal Oscillator (OCXO) for long-term jitter reduction and precise DSD-to-PCM conversion by FPGA. The server supports various audio formats such as DSD(DSF, DFF), WAV, FLAC, AIFF, ALAC, M4A, and APE. It also features dual 3.7” AMOLED displays with a colored VU meter simulation and a machined aluminum chassis available in black or silver.
