Solo streamer

Latest update. The Aurender was shipped from South Korea to Music Direct via MY mailing address.  Since those two entities don’t match, it’s being held in customs in Cincinnati since last Wednesday, the day it was supposedly to be delivered.  Now, after much aggravation from DHL, the shipping manager from Music Direct contacted customs to try and unravel the red tape.  Now the unit is supposed to be delivered THIS Wednesday.

All this could have been avoided if Aurender sent the streamer from their facilities in California. But, I guess that’s how they do business.

The N200 seems popular,  mine shipped directly from Aurender California and I live in Boston.   I'm guessing they were out of stock and that was the quickest way, via DHL.   I think it will be worth the wait, hopefully you'll feel the same once you get it 

Ordered my new Aurender N200 from a dealer on Audiogon. It shipped from Korea and arrived here, in Missouri, in about 6 days. Aurender might be experiencing quite an uptick in sales due to their new Room compatibility.

Really like mine. It took 200+ hours to break in. Replaced their USB cable with a Supra 2.0 that is warmer and has more body.

Good luck, hope yours arrives soon.

Thanks,

Hopefully the shipping snafu doesn’t enter into the time you have with the unit before you decide if you want to return it.

  Issues like this always negatively impact my evaluation of a component because my emotions get involved.  Of course it shouldn’t matter but it does 

@rvpiano, I hope your new Aurender N200 arrives soon in one piece so that you can tell us what you think of it. I became aware of the Aurender line through the folks at Upscale Audio out in California. They had nothing but praise for the N200 when it’s properly implemented into a good system.
