Aurender iPad App:

Using the Aurender App, the easy-to-use 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.

Technology:

The Aurender uses a customized Linux operating system 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 N10 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 accurate as possible.

The Aurender Music System is fanless to eliminate vibrations, unwanted electromagnetic fields and noise emanating from the fan. Solid State Drives, which have no moving parts, are used to avoid vibrations, electromagnetic interference, and latency found in hard disk drives. The use of solid-state drives vastly lowers processor access times. During playback, selections are automatically cached using proprietary technology from the hard disk to the Solid State Drive. 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 and 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 N10 Music System delivers the best audio performance possible. The superior audio quality is definitely distiguishable even when compared to much more expensive high end systems.

Connections:

The Aurender N10 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.

Features :

The Aurender W20 is designed to be used as a reference music server and player for the best performing audio systems and properly tagged high resolution digital music collections. With many unique and creative engineering solutions to eliminate jitter and noise in accurately transmitting digital audio signals to high performance discrete digital-to-analog converters, Aurender music servers enable high performance audio systems to perform at their true potential.

Technology:

The Aurender W20 Music Server comes equipped with a unique clock design incorporating three Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillators with a Field Programmable Gate Array selected for the lowest jitter and highest performance in a digtal Phase Locked Loop system.

In response to numerous requests from recording studios and audiophiles with audio systems incorporating a Master Word Clock, the Aurender W20 Music Server comes equipped with a BNC input for Master Word Clocks and USB data ports that can be linked to automatically control the sample rate of external clocks such as the dCS Vivaldi Clock.

Many high performance discrete digital-to-analog converters require dual-wire AES/EBU mode to separate audio transmissions of the left and right channels for higher fidelity and the Aurender W20 Music Server is the first audiophile music server and player to offer dual-wire support.

Many modern high performance digital-to-analog converters are compatible with USB Audio Class 2.0 and the Aurender W20 Music Server comes equipped with a uniquely designed very “clean” USB Audio Class 2.0 output. Since critical audio circuits are powered by noiseless DC batteries, the audio signal needs to be buffered and then transmitted in USB Audio Class 2.0 standard. The Aurender W20 uses a proprietary buffering circuit to prevent noise and jitter in addition to protection of critical circuits from outside interference using metal shielding.

The Aurender W20 Music Server with iPad App features an audio board containing all the critical audio components which is powered by two banks of lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries that alternate charging cycles and require zero user intervention. This eliminates the need for filters and isolates the audio circuits from ground noise coming from the electrical mains. A third bank of LiFePO4 batteries act as an un-interruptible power supply in case of any sudden electrical power failures, the Aurender W20 will power down and turn off safely without any damage.

A fanless high grade switching mode power supply is used to economically supply clean power to the CPU board, drives and front panel. The computer mainboard, audio board and most of the components used in the Aurender W20 Music Server were developed in-house by teams of TVLogic engineers and meticulously developed through years of research and development into music servers and user convenience.

The Aurender W20 Music Server comes with two 6TB internal hard disk drives for a total of 12TB storage capacity. These hard drives are suspended using rubber damping on aluminum brackets and encased in a thick block of precision machined aluminum to minimize vibrations, acoustic and electromagnetic noise. While the hard drives are used for storage, songs are cached to a solid-state drive for playback, thereby eliminating problems with latency and jitter associated with spinning disks and drives.

Aurender iPad App:

The Aurender W20 Music Server with iPad user application is designed to deliver the best user experience in browsing, sorting and convenient selection of songs for playback. Using the intuitive touchscreen functions of the iPad is easy and effortless playback features such as automatic queuing of random song selections at the touch of a button make listening to music a real pleasure.
