I recently bought the Aurender A-10 and it is the best 2 channel music I've ever had. It runs through the balanced outputs into my Classe SSP-800, where all the processing is bypassed on the way to my Martin Logan towers. But over the years, i've become addicted to the Classe's superb processing modes. So i plan to also get a USB to Optical converter and run that through the Classe as separate input. Does anyone know if the Aurender will output sound simultaneously through the USB and the balanced outputs?
Aurender A-10
Has anyone heard the new Aurender A-10 yet? It is basically a N100h media player paired with a DAC as a one box solution. I am curious as to how the DAC section of this piece performs since this seems to be Aurender's first foray into the DAC world. I was originally going to get the Aurender N100h and an outboard DAC such as the Moon 280D or the Audio Alchemy DDP1. I'm wondering if the A10 combo will sound just as good???
