A network music player or server offers the best combination of high end hi-fi audio performance and convenience, allowing you to store your entire CD music collection uncompressed and browse it and replay it at the touch of a button at the highest possible hi-fi quality. Generally speaking network music players significantly outperform a similarly priced CD player, not to mention the convenience of being able to browse your entire collection without the need for all the CDs to be in the room. For example a Linn Majik DS costing £1800 will typically outperform CD players costing upto £3-4k.
Many network music players or streamers can be controlled from the convenience of the Apple iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad or android device. You can also use a network music player as part of a multi-room system to enjoy stunning quality music in the principle listening room. We often install for customers a Linn DS component in the Living room or music room and then use the Sonos system in the remaining non hi-fi rooms (kitchen, office, Bedroom, Bathrooms etc..). Both the Linn and Sonos share the same FLAC music files stored on an external ripping NAS (network attached storage) drive. Importantly this means there only need exist a single location where all your music is stored.

aurender N10 - 8TB Music Server/Streamer
|
|
N10
Reference-Class Caching Music Server / Streamer
4TB or 8TB HDD Storage
USB, AES/EBU, Coaxial, BNC and Optical Outputs
When computer audio first started to gain popularity, USB was the de facto standard for the digital audio signal transport. This was simply because computers have USB ports, not AES/EBU or other SPDIF ports. Unfortunately, USB can be a flawed protocol for digital audio transmission as it is prone to noise, jitter, and compatibility issues. Done properly, AES/EBU and SPDIF audio outputs represent a superior method of audio transmission with nearly universal compatibility, less jitter, and greater ease and flow to the overall musical presentation. N10 represents the state-of-the art of these protocols with its OCXO controlled SPDIF outputs – use them and discover a higher standard than USB.

W20
W20 is the music server of choice for the very finest stereo systems in the world. Designed to be used with high performance digital-to-analog converters, the Aurender W20 is one of the few music servers to support external word clocks used in recording studios, and dual-wire mode AES/EBU used by many reference digital-to-analog converters to separate transmission of left and right channels for better fidelity. However, even without using the word clock input or dual AES/EBU outputs, W20’s battery power supply provides a dramatically lower noise floor for a completely silent background.
