Aurender A30 Reference Analogue Output Network Player

Aurender A30 Music Server / Streamer

Aurender's best DAC, plus the convenience of built-in CD Ripping

Reference Analog Output Network Player with Aurender's best built-in DAC, CD Ripping, Library Management functionality, 10TB storage, and Dedicated Headphone Section

A Marriage of Performance and Convenience

A30 is the flagship model from Aurender’s range of analogue output network players. Like A200, A15, and A20, A30 is, at its essence, a caching music server/streamer with a built-in DAC and analogue outputs. 

A30 is built around Aurender's best internal DAC architecture: a dual-mono pair of AKM4497 DACs for the ultimate performance in channel separation, resolution, and control.

The Aurender A30 also includes full MQA Decoder technology which enables you to play back full-resolution MQA audio files and streams, delivering the highest possible sound quality of the original master recording. Beyond delivering exceptional audio quality, A30 includes functions like CD ripping, 10TB of internal storage, ultra-wide colour LCD display, a high-quality dedicated headphone section, and an integrated software suite of metadata editing and library management tools.

All this, and much more, makes the A30 the new performance standard in all-in-one digital source components.

Key Features:

Aurender's Best DAC

Aurender designed the A30 for those seeking the simplicity of an all-in-one unit without sacrificing a high level of resolution, transparency, and the reproduction of inner detail. Built around an integrated dual-mono AKM4497 DAC module, A30 delivers MQA full-decoding to get the best performance out of MQA content, as well as every other major digital audio format.

FPGA-Based Precision Clock

A30's precision clock generation system incorporates a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with sub-100fs jitter-reducing clock generator to precisely time digital audio data transmissions and minimize jitter to below negligible levels.

Dedicated Headphone Section

In addition to being a stellar Analog Output Network Player for loudspeaker systems, A30's sophisticated headphone section is a real overachiever! Featuring a dedicated headphone amp and three different types of headphone outputs, A30 is a HeadFi lover's endgame.

Automatic CD Ripping

Aurender’s CD ripping software, which was custom-engineered and optimized to work with the integrated TEAC CD-ROM, yields shockingly good CD rips in WAV, FLAC or AIFF codecs. Sophisticated error detection and correction software ensures accurate rips for great-sounding digital files. A30 supports the Acronova Nimbie AutoLoader (not included) which allows for unattended and automated ripping of up to 100 cds at a time.

Digital Connectivity

A30 is capable of upsampling non-DSD files up to 705.6/768kHz to the analog outputs. Or leave upsampling off (default setting) for an untouched bitstream.
