How simple is it to enjoy your tunes on the A10? John Darko at digitalaudioreview.net says that the A10 is recommended for "listeners who don’t have the time (or inclination) to tinker. It’s for those who just want to set it, forget it and enjoy it." 4TB Music Storage Plus a Solid-State Drive Cache for PlaybackThe A10 makes it easy to get instant access to a massive amount of audio tracks, thanks to an internal hard disc drive providing a hefty 4TB of storage. And for enhanced performance, a 240GB solid-state drive is used to cache music for playback. The 240GB solid-state caching drive has two big advantages. First, if a selected song or album is already ached to the solid-state drive, the hard drive will remain asleep. This minimizes wear and tear on the hard drive. Second, by caching songs to the solid-state drive for playback, electrical and acoustic noise resulting from spinning disks, moving heads and motors are also completely eliminated. So this is a great feature that you won't find in many music players, though it's all too typical of Aurender excellence. Dedicated USB Audio Class 2.0 Noise-free OutputThe 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. A full linear power supply provides clean and stable power to the CPU circuit and the audio output circuit. This consists of four individual toroidal power transformers for the server, digital circuitry, and dual DACs. Dual Mono DACsThe Aurender has dual-mono DACs with a discrete linear power regulator, which contributes to the exceptional sonic performance. It uses the Dual 768 kHz / 32-bit Next Generation Flagship AK4490 DAC chip. The USB Audio output delivers PCM up to 32-bit / 384 kHz. DSD playback includes DSD64, DSD128 / DoP Mode. Gigabit Ethernet LAN Port for Network ConnectivityIn addition to its built-in 4TB internal storage, the A10 provides full support or a Network Attached Storage drive (NAS), USB drives, and more. For network connectivity, streaming, upgrades and file transfers, the A10 has a Gigabyte Ethernet port along with two USB 2.0 data ports for copying files from USB memories.
