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.

I just wrote three or four paragraphs and Agon' decided it didn't want to save it.

Nutshell - The N10 is very capable, with ease, dynamics, amazing 3D soundstage and musician placement - you can hear them just where they are on stage.

I agree with @lalitk in that if you have a very high resolution system you will be very rewarded in the N10.

The N10 is also significantly better than the A10 as a server; it is very easy to hear the difference. It just has that ease about it that draws you into the music.

I haven't heard the PS Audio compared to the N10 though I have heard the PS Audio transport/DAC at the same dealer. It would be the best of both worlds if you could compare the bridge to the N10 but I also don't fool myself it'd be easy for you to do in your situation.

Anyway, have fun along the way and hope you find the audio component that meets all your audio wants. Cheers
