Aurender N20 Music Server & Streamer

Pleasantly surprised

Michael and I were discussing a system for a friend of mine and we went off-topic to dicsuss if I'd lose anything from switching to a steamer to feed the Audia Flight DAC card versus my standalone DAC/streamer. Michael said it would be better and I said it would be worse. Michael won, and frankly I'd bought the Aurender simply for its UI even if it sounded the same. In a comparison demo the N20 seemed to awaken my speakers producing a refined yet resolving sound I hadn't heard in my room. Its a joy to use, seems of very high build quality, and is a streamer/server I feel I can use in my system no matter the DAC. Love it.
