Aurender A10

The A10
is an exceptionally high value music player with a superior built-in
digital-to-analog converter. The full-decoder MQA DAC has a rich, organic sound

much or even far more than the A10 itself! With a 4TB internal hard disk drive
and 120GB solid-state drive cache for playback and control by Aurender
Conductor, the A10 is the perfect one-box solution for those replacing high-end
CD players or just seeking performance and simplicity.

FEATURES

Integrated
Flagship Dual-Mono DACs with Fully Discrete Dual-Mono Linear Power Supplies

• Balanced (XLR) / Unbalanced (RCA) Audio Outputs

• Dual 768KHz/32bit Next Generation Flagship AK4490 DAC Chip

• Volume Adjustment from App, IR Remote or Front Panel Rotary
Control

FPGA-Based
Precision Clock with World-Class Jitter Reduction

Precision clock generation
system incorporaties Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) with sub 100fs
jitter-reducing clock generator precisely times digital audio data
transmissions and minimizes jitter to below negligible levels

Linear
Power Supply for Ultra-Low Noise Floor

Full linear power supply and
extensive shielding prevent noise from being delivered to sensitive DACs for
the best sound reproduction.Four discrete toroidal transformers power the
server system, digital output, and dual DACs, respectively.

Hard Disk Drive Storage with Solid-State Drive Cache for Playback

Internal hard drive provide 4TB
of storage and a 120G solid-state drive is used to cache music for playback. If
a selected song or album is already cached to the solid-state drive, the hard
drive will remain asleep. This minimizes wear and tear on the hard drive. By
caching files to the solid-state drive for playback, electrical and acoustic
noise resulting from spinning disks, moving heads and motors are also
completely eliminated.

Dedicated
USB Audio Class 2.0 Output with Ultra Low Noise Power Circuitry

The dedicated USB Audio Class
2.0 output is designed to deliver an exceptionally transparent audio signal
free of noise, and is shielded from outside electronic interference.

USB
and NAS (Network-Attached Storage) Support

Best performance occurs when
music is stored on the Aurender’s internal storage. However, the Aurender
platform is also capable of seamlessly integrating content stored on a NAS or
external USB hard drive.

Remote
Internet Technical Support

​Sending a Remote Support Request through the Aurender App allows
engineers to quickly diagnose and correct problems over the Internet.

MQA

The Aurender A10 includes full MQA Decoder technology, which
enables you to play back MQA audio files and streams, delivering the highest
possible sound quality of the original master recording.

The Aurender Conductor App will
indicate that ‘MQA‘ or ‘MQA Studio‘ content is being played back. A green or
blue dot next to the MQA logo indicate that the unit is decoding and playing an
MQA stream or file, and denotes provenance to ensure that the sound is
identical to that of the source material. The blue dot indicates it is playing
an MQA Studio file, which has either been approved in the studio by the
artist/producer or has been verified by the copyright owner.

The A10’s front panel also uses
text indicators to display MQA playback and the respective sampling rate of the
file or stream being played. ‘MQA’ or ‘MQA Studio’ indicates that the unit is
decoding and playing an MQA stream or file, and denotes provenance to ensure
that the sound is identical to that of the source material. ‘MQA Studio’
indicates it is playing an MQA Studio file, which has either been approved in
the studio by the artist/producer or has been verified by the copyright owner.
