Looking to upgrade my N100H. Budget is around $3500 new or used. In my line of sight are the Aurender N200 and N10. (Used) Any other recommendations are greatly appreciated. Does not have to be Aurender.
I went from 100H to 150. That was a good jump. And it’s current. That may matter depending on what services you want to use. Be careful buying a non supported product.
If you want a terrific streamer/Dac, the Cary 650 DMS was awesome….
In short….The Cambridge, Rose and 100H are all good. The 150 was better and CLS mode on the 150 was a plus. The A1000 was not an upgrade at all.
I now use Innuos and the Pulse or Pulse mini with a Sbooster is as good or better as anything listed above.
Good luck in your shopping!
I really liked Lumin U2, and USB output to DS MK2 sounded great. They use their own operating system, and you do not need Roon either (it is Roon ready). You may be able to find a used one around your budget.
Innuos ZENith Mk 3 on the used market is an easy recommendation for a server streamer
