Aurender X 100 – Review bei „Ultra Audio“

Geschrieben am Veröffentlicht in High-End, Musikserver

Der Chefredakteur von „Ultra Audio“, Jeff Fritz, hat soeben seine für den 1. April angekündigte Besprechung des Aurender X 100L veröffentlicht.

Er vergleicht den Klang des X 100L mit dem des sehr gebräuchlichen Setups von MacMini oder MacBook:

„[…] when I inserted the Aurender in place of the MacBook, I instantly heard an improvement. Most aspects of the sound remained the same, and the tonal balance didn’t change at all — no increased bass, no more-prominent highs. Nor did the soundstage get bigger, or the imaging more precise. In many ways, the sound I now heard was just the same as before, and a good thing too — for weeks, my system had already sounded ultra-dialed-in. Still, the sound was better. I remembered having heard the same phenomenon a couple years before, when I first connected the Aurender S10. My first thought then, odd as it might seem, was that the sound was calmer — as if the music were flowing through my cables and components with greater fluidity and ease. Admittedly, that’s not a very concrete description of what I was hearing.“

und kommt zu dem Schluß:

„Most important, the sound of my system improved. The caveat is that it improved only with certain types of music — simpler arrangements of soloists, or smaller ensembles of only a few players, and more from the midrange on up. Of course, this describes much of the music in many audiophile collections. If you want to be able to hear deeper into a whistle, a whisper, a solo acoustic guitar, or a cymbal’s shimmer, the Aurender X100L might be exactly the right product for you.

If you’ve wanted an Aurender S10, but were put off by its price and don’t need its myriad connection options, then I see nothing that should hold you back from the X100L. It’s a killer little product.“
