I just upgraded from a late model MacBook with Audirvana to a N100h and I’m very happy with this move. Sonically the differences are tangible and you can’t beat the convenience. I’m just streaming Tidal now until I can rip the hundreds of cd’s that I have. Haven’t tried the other streamers mentioned but I think you’ll like it.
Aurender, wich one? Upgrading from a Mac mini
I am hoping to upgrade my digital music "front end" from my Mac Mini. I am looking at the Aurender, but which model? I only need it store music ( 2 T is more than enough ) and pull from my DNLA server and USB to my DAC. I plan to continue to use my DAC ( built into my McIntosh C2500 ) so I don't need to buy a device that has another DAC in it. However are there any other "audible" differences from the N100 to the N10 or A10 when using the USB out to another DAC? A good remote app is important and I have heard favorable comments on the Conductor app. And as always are there are any other brands that I should consider ? But I would like a one box solution, not one that required running roon or JRiver on another computer.
Thank you
