How does the Aurender s10 compare with a more modern streamer?

I wouldn't  use an older discontinued streamer

 

Lumin u1 min. Is fabulous 

And lumin supports most major streaming services

Thanks guys, useful info. I think I will not be buying it since the latest Aurender updates are not available for the S10.

Long time Aurender user (N100, N10, ACS100 and N20)....buy S10 only if Aurender still supporting S10 with latest updates, otherwise pick up a used N10 which is superior than Lumin U1 and Auralic G1. 

My estimate would be similar but slightly superior to the N100... definitely not as good as the N10... the N10 is a a truly great streamer.

@ghdprentice Do you think the S10 sounds similar/better to the N100 or the N10?

Well, I can get it for a price similar to a new lumin mini u1 and Aularic G1. Would you say the sound quality of the S10 is still superior to the others considering it is much older?

Sound quality from streamers generally follows price points. I have experience with many low end sources and Auralic Aries G2, Aurender N100, N10, and W20SE. Each price level provides a huge increase in sound quality. Aurender produce some of the best sounding streamers on the market today.


The unit you are looking at will probably sound pretty good. Although I think it is around ten years old. I guess it will depend on the price. This is a guess… if it cost much less than the current Aurender N100 then buy it. If not go for a Aurender N100.
