Everything You'd Want from a High-End Music Streamer: Cambridge Audio EXN100 Plays with Extraordinary Sound and Has Exceptional Flexibility, Includes Premium SABRE DAC and HDMI eARC Input
More than a decade’s worth of high-end streaming research, development, and design comes to fruition in the form of the Cambridge Audio EXN100 music streamer. Intended to stand on the same elevated platform as higher-priced models in this ever-competitive segment, EXN100 boasts an ESS SABRE ES9028Q2M DAC and premium Nisshinbo Muses op amps to help deliver sound with extraordinary detail, bountiful soundstages, massive dynamics, crystalline clarity, and immersive presence. Hand-picked signal-path components, a balanced XLR output, and a precision-tuned post-DAC analog stage further attest to its pursuit of exceptional sonics.
Engineered and acoustically optimized at the company’s London-based music venue, EXN100 has the user-friendly features, connectivity, and technology to make listening experiences take priority over any other pursuit. You can hear high-resolution up to DSD 512 and 32-bit/768kHz PCM, hook your TV up to the HDMI eARC input, and enjoy direct performance from Spotify, TIDAL, Qobuz, Deezer, UPnP, and Internet radio thanks to its fourth-generation StreamMagic platform. USB, coaxial, and Toslink inputs augment wireless Chromecast, AirPlay 2, and Bluetooth 5 aptX HD options. If you want to share music with compatible devices throughout your home, EXN100 is at the ready via compatibility with Google Home, Apple AirPlay, and Roon systems.
Wrapped in a thick, luxurious, vibration-resistant EX Series chassis with aluminum fascia, EXN100 further shows off with a full-color 1280mm x 720mm display screen that lets you choose between VU meters, album art, or clock display. Control is a cinch. Cambridge’s intuitive StreamMagic app puts everything at your fingertips. Alternatively, EXN100 can be commanded via the EX Series remote, sold with the Cambridge EXA100 integrated amplifier or available as a special order. For added flexibility, EXN100 can be used as a digital preamplifier — with the volume control available on the StreamMagic app.
