Aurender A100 Caching Music Server With Internal MQA Certified DAC

Description

MY TAKE: Simplify your system with one less component, one less digital cable and one less power cord by combing the DAC and music server into a single chassis. The Aurender A100 does just that, marrying their outstanding music server technology with an equally impressive internal MQA-Certified DAC. The built-in volume control allows you to can drive a power amp directly, allowing you to bypass a preamplifier if you like.  – Galen Carol
