The Aurender A20 is the latest addition to the Aurender line of music players with analog output. The A20 has the same basic circuit topology, DAC chipset, and form factor as the flagship A30. However, it does not have the function of copying CDs, metadata editing software, and provides headphones connected to one standard 6.3mm jack. By reducing the size, the A20 will appeal to digital music lovers whose library has already been digitized and who need a full-fledged high-performance server, streamer, preamp, DAC and headphone amplifier.

    Streamers

    Aurender A200

    The A200 is the initial device in the Aurender server/streamer catalog with integrated DACs. The status of the base model did not affect the functionality and sound quality in any way. This compact digital music player is full of features. It includes a high-end DAC with full-fledged MQA decoding, which allows you to fully enjoy the huge catalog of music available in this format on the Tidal streaming service (subscription required).

    Aurender A15

    The A15 audio part is based on the high-end AKM4490EN DAC chip in a dual mono configuration with full MQA decoding and is equipped with both balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) analog outputs. Like all Aurender devices from the "A" series, the A15 is designed to allow you to fully enjoy all the benefits of music produced in the MQA format.

  • A20

    Streamers

    Aurender A20

    The streamer is based on the same basic circuitry, the same DAC and the same format as the flagship A30, but lacks the functionality of a CD ripper and metadata editing software, and headphones can be connected to it using a standard 6.35mm jack. Due to this, the A20 will be of interest to those music lovers who have already digitized their collection and are now looking for a high-performance server, streamer, preamp, DAC and headphone amplifier.

    Streamers

    Aurender A30

    The A30 is the flagship model in the Aurender line of audio players with analog output. Like the A10 and A100 players, the A30 is essentially an SSD-caching audio server/streamer with a DAC with built-in storage and is controlled through the Aurender Conductor application.

  • N150

    Streamers

    Aurender N150

    The player uses a new 2-core Intel processor with low power consumption and minimal noise, and RAM reaches 8 GB. There is a 240 GB SSD buffer on board for caching audio files, which solves problems related to pauses/delays when playing files from external HDD and NAS servers. The buffer extends the service life of the installed disk, which goes into standby mode at the time of caching. This also minimizes unwanted noise.
