Description
Aurender ACS100 : Streamer
The Utility Player – CD Ripping and Library Management
Automatic CD Ripping / Library Management / Metadata Editing Central Server Hub for Library Expansion and Multi-Room Systems, 2x Slots for User-Installable 2.5″ HDD or SSD Drive, Digital Output Network Transport
The Multi-Talented Utility Player
ACS100 offers a sensible solution to add CD Ripping, Library Management, and Central Server functionality to any Aurender system. Conceived as an accessory upgrade or add-on, ACS100 includes all the utility of ACS10 in a simpler package.
ACS100 uses a less expensive external switch-mode power supply instead of a linear power supply. It also omits the dedicated filtered & isolated USB audio output since its highest and best use is as a stand-alone Central Server.
Therefore, it is the ideal add-on companion to A200, A15, A20, N20, W20SE and N30SA. And, while adding valuable functionality to another Aurender, ACS100 can simultaneously be used as a source component for a second system.
