Another one (server) bites the dust!


Well, my Musicvault that has served me SO well for a long, long time has begun to serve up errors. My needs and desires for a new server/streamer seem to be met by Aurender's N series and I'm curious if anyone can comment on the sonic differences between the N10 and the N200 for serving and streaming....They're both in my budget.

Mostly, it looks like the N200 has better power isolation and the N10 has a better clock. I imagine that doesn't tell the whole story, though. 

Can you serve up some sensible subjective sonic experiences (please and thank you)?

@lalitk I gotta say, if you own all the equipment pictured, and it is all in one residence (to paraphrase Jeff Foxworthy), you might just be an audiophile. Seriously, that is quite a collection of kit. I might have a hard time deciding what to play, at your place, I would have a tough time deciding what to play it on!

Thanks for your kind comments, I appreciate it. Majority of the time, I am streaming but I do enjoy spinning my elusive collection of XRCD, SACD and CD’s every now and then on my equally treasured Marantz / Raysonic players.
