A revolutionary new connected audio experience
Cambridge shouldn’t have a favourite in its own range of network audio players, but the CXN100 is in a class of its own. Hi-Fi specialists and listeners loved its predecessor, the CXN V2 – wait until you hear this one to be amazed. The CXN100 will instantly transform a conventional hi-fi system into a system for the future. And because it’s a networked device, the CXN100’s firmware can be updated remotely, via Cambridge’s StreamMagic application, to take advantage of the latest services. The first thing you’ll notice about the CXN100 is its large, high-resolution colour display, which is ideal for viewing album art. Cambridge has also tweaked the volume control, to get things right with a comforting tactile response. Inside, Cambridge steps up a gear with a new ESS ES9028Q2M SABRE32 DAC and StreamMagic Gen 4 module, while redesigned, expertly tuned and simplified circuits for a purer signal path complete the picture.
Streaming at its best
The ease of use of streaming music was once disappointing. That’s no longer the case, thanks to better CODECS, wider and faster bandwidths and products like the CXN100. The latter has been designed to offer effortless accessibility, but with uncompromising sonic excellence that’s the result of over 55 years of hi-fi development, and over a decade of perfecting the StreamMagic platform.
The CXN100 integrates free and subscription-based high-resolution services, such as Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect with MQA, Qobuz and Deezer, for the best sound quality available. With Apple Airplay2 and Chromecast built in, you can access Apple Music, Amazon Music, BBC Sounds and much more. The CXN100 is also compatible with Roon.
For even better sound, Cambridge has enhanced the CXN100’s circuitry to take advantage of the 32-bit capabilities of the ESS ES9028Q2M SABRE32 digital to analogue converter.
The best of your music, always under control
If the DAC is the heart of the CXN100, the Cambridge StreamMagic Gen 4 module is its brain. It uses the Cambridge streaming platform and application. It’s responsible for the network player’s smooth, seamless and stable listening experience from any digital source. The CXN100’s firmware can also be upgraded over the air.
A beautifully smooth volume dial and large colour display take the CXN100 ‘s music experience to the next level. TheStreamMagic app is your remote control, allowing you to intuitively control connected sources.
With its elegant, minimalist lines, the CXN100 will stand the test of time, both physically and aesthetically. It’s been crafted from aluminium and steel, and its ability to receive updates should also help you get the most out of your investment.
