Aurender N50 Music Server/Streamer Product Description:
The Aurender N50 redefines what's possible in a high-performance music server, offering a meticulously engineered platform for serious audiophiles. Designed for sonic purity and realism, the N50 delivers a deep, natural presentation with a dead-silent background and an expansive soundstage.
Its standout feature is Aurender’s advanced Triple-Module Architecture, which physically separates the power supply, server circuitry, and audio output stages into isolated sections. This layout minimizes internal noise and crosstalk, allowing each subsystem to operate independently and without compromise. Isolated Ethernet ports further ensure clean data transmission by blocking external noise and preserving signal integrity.

A high-precision OCXO clock, governed by FPGA control, ensures ultra-stable timing and low jitter for smooth, lifelike playback. The unit also supports an external master clock for even tighter sync in reference-level systems. Power delivery is equally refined, with twin Supreme toroidal transformers dedicated to the audio section. These custom-wound transformers are vacuum-potted and housed in stainless steel to block vibration and electromagnetic interference. Additional AC and DC filtering stages further suppress incoming power noise.
Connectivity is extensive, with options like I2S output, MSB ProISL, dual AES/EBU, and a newly engineered low-noise USB output. Fully compatible with Roon and streaming platforms such as TIDAL, Qobuz, and Spotify, the N50 is built for seamless integration into top-tier digital systems.
