This is the first Aurender to feature a dual-chassis design, and it uses the same wide-screen full-color LCD display from the A30 and N20. The N30SA develops on the hardware and circuit topology innovations of the N20 and goes above and beyond in terms of noise and jitter reduction, increased dynamics, and purity of the audio signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe N30SA comes with an 8 TB SSD and has a rear panel tray slot to add another drive if desired. (The N30 with 12 TB of onboard storage is for Asian markets.)\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen it comes to whether this sounds better than the W20SE, Aurender says, \"That’s a hard question to answer as they each have their own distinct qualities and sonic signature. As is always the case in high-end audio, careful listening and system matching will only definitively answer that question. Much like Ferrari offers several automobiles, each with their own driving qualities and personality, no one would argue they’re not all supercars.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDual-Chassis Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bottom \"power box\" houses all power supplies, display driver, HDD\/SSD storage, and system-control circuitry. The \"audio box\" contains the display, SPDIF audio board, and the OCXO clock, and is supplied clean DC from the power box. Both boxes have 10 mm thick top covers for EMF shielding and acoustic damping. A cable allows the power box to be located up to five feet away from the audio box, greatly reducing any interference with the extremely delicate digital source signals. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs always, Aurender takes great care to isolate everything internally as well, segregating noise-inducing componentry such as the AC socket, LCD\u003cbr\u003edisplay driver, AC-to-DC power rectifier, and LAN port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLAN ports are especially noisy, and the Aurender uses transformer-based galvanic isolation, and the double-isolated LAN port on the power box is connected to the audio box via a dedicated data cable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe digital outputs use a unique grounding technique, electrical isolation, and DC power from the power box for a noisefloor that is nearly unmeasurably low.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-End Clocking\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe N30SA uses the same oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) as the one in the W20SE.
