The N20 is a network streamer with built-in DAC from Aurender, built with a slim chassis profile distinct from the A-series. The N20 brings Aurender's considered engineering to a space-efficient streaming format.

Key specs that matter

A built-in DAC handles conversion, with DSD compatibility reaching DSD512 and PCM support up to 32-bit/768kHz, matching the broader Aurender streaming catalogue. At a slim 430 x 83 x 353mm and 13.5kg, the N20 maintains a notably slimmer chassis height than the A-series models.

Sound and use context

Expect clean, detailed conversion reflecting the comprehensive format support consistent across Aurender's streaming catalogue, delivered from a slim chassis profile suited to rack integration.

Pairing

The built-in DAC lets the N20 connect directly to a preamplifier or integrated amplifier without needing a separate outboard converter.

Alternatives

Aurender's own A20, A200 and A30 offer alternatives with a taller chassis profile within the same broader streaming catalogue.
