Aurender N10


I'm considering purchasing a music server.  One of my requirements is that in addition to be easy to use and (preferably) have internal storage, that it sound as least as good as my current transports, PS Audio DMP.  Does the N10 do that?  Is it as good as a very good transport (into PS Audio DSD).
I want the convenience that a server provides but not willing to compromise on sound quality.
Thanks in advance.

Do you homework.
I don’t know if the A10 and N10 are similar circuits in this regard if both do MQA, but it was quite disconcerting that they did this.

JA Stereophile "However, the A10’s misapplication of the MQA reconstruction filter to non-MQA files stored on its internal drive means we must withhold a full recommendation for the A10 until this problem has been corrected."

This to me smells, to hobble anything that’s non MQA.

Good on ya JA for not withholding it.
