Aurender S10 Music Playback and Storage Solution
The OCXO oscillators in Aurender S10 Music Systems are more accurate than ordinary crystal oscillators used in most music servers and players. Clocks are important in guaranteeing jitter-free performance. Incorporating next generation technology with playback from SSD (SOLID STATE DRIVE), user-friendly iPad remote control application, up to 2TB of memory, and other unique features, Aurender S10 Music Systems are the ideal music storage and playback solution for modern audiophiles.
FEATURES :
Free iPad remote control application from Apple App Store
Customized Linux OS for best audio performance
WAV, FLAC, APE and other formats supported
Up to 24-bit width and 192 kHz sampling rate
Switching-mode and linear power supplies
Playback from SSD
Silent fanless design
AMOLED displays.
Aurender iPad App
Using the Aurender App, the user-friendly iPad becomes the master control for the Aurender Music System. The large display allows for quick viewing and search of even the largest music collections. The Aurender Application for iPad is free and can be downloaded from the Apple App Store.
OTHER CONVENIENT FEATURES INCLUDES :
Intuitive search function for fast easy selection
Create and edit playlists with just a touch of one's finger
All details of song, album, playlist and queue easily viewed on large iPad display
Automatic or customise categories of songs
CD album front and back covers can be stored and displayed along with music selection
Web search function to search for information on selected artist or song
Zoom in function
TECHNOLOGY :
The Aurender uses a customized Linux OS, tuned for high performance digital processing. In addition, sampling rates from 44.1~192KHz with 16-bit and 24-bit widths match or vastly exceed the audio quality that can be obtained from compact disks.
With today's technology, clock and signal jitter can be lowered to a point where their effects are negligible. Aurender S10 clocks are based on ultra-stable Oven-Controlled Crystal Oscillators (OCXO) and uses Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) with PLL based re-clocking to ensure that the signal to the Digital Analog Converter is as precision as possible.
The Aurender Music System is fanless to eliminate vibrations, unwanted electromagnetic fields and noise emitting from the fan. SSD, which have no moving parts, are used to avoid vibrations, electromagnetic interference, and latency found in hard drive. The use of SSD vastly lowers processor access times. During playback, selections are automatically cached using proprietary technology from the hard disk to the SSD. The hard disk then falls asleep and the music is played back using only the solid state drive. This design eliminates problems with sonic and electromagnetic noise from spinning hard disk drives.
Care must also be taken when using switched-mode power supplies which generate undesirable electromagnetic noise. In the Aurender Music System, power is provided by both switching mode and linear power supplies. The switching mode power supply is isolated from critical components using thick aluminum walls, whereas, the linear power supply is used for sensitive critical components. Thick aluminum is also used to isolate physical and electromagnetic noise from CPUs and hard disk drives.
The Aurender S10 Music System delivers the best audio performance possible. The superior audio quality is definitely distinguishable even when compared to much more dearer high end systems.
CONNECTIONS :
The Aurender S10 Music System has digital outputs (Coaxial, AES/EBU, Optical, USB) which are designed to be connected to a Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC), or an amplifier with digital inputs. The Aurender must be connected to a wireless router in order for the iPad to function as a wireless master control.
