User reviews

Gaël

Quite satisfied with my purchase, the finish is good, the screen is very readable.
Used with a NAS with FLAC files, the responsiveness is very good.
However, there are a few small shortcomings with the interface => my old Logitech Squeezebox was more intuitive. Menus sometimes in English, despite the updates.
In terms of performance, having changed my entire Hifi system, it's definitely better!

Plutôt satisfait de mon achat, la finition est bonne, l'écran est bien lisible.
Utilisée avec un NAS avec des fichiers en FLAC, la réactivité est très bonne.
Par contre quelques petites lacunes au niveau de l'interfaces => ma vieille Logitech Squeezebox était plus intuitive. Menus parfois en anglais, malgré les mise à jour.
Question performance, ayant changé la totalité de ma Hifi, c'est forcément mieux !

Superb work by the engineers at Cambridge Audio. After hesitating and after my PC Audio breathed its last breath, I'm discovering the pleasure of listening from a new Networked NAS. The internal DACs of the CXN are fabulous and bury my otherwise regretted TEAC UD-501 and its Hecate interface. Only negative point: the documentation is minimal. The Cambridge site says little about the CXN's adjustment possibilities. It will take patience and hunting for substantive information on forums. The learning curve is steep. But the sound of this device is so intoxicating that any effort deserves a prerequisite of pain. The CXN pays you back magnificently in return. And then... the price offered by HomeCiné Solutions as part of a group purchase (with the CXA-80) is the clincher, let's face it. Thanks to them. Fast delivery, packaging intact. Bring on the pleasure!

Superbe réalisation des ingénieurs de chez Cambridge Audio. Je découvre, après avoir hésité et après que mon PC Audio eut rendu son dernier souffle, le plaisir de l'écoute depuis un nouveau Nas en Réseau. Les dacs internes du CXN sont fabuleux et enterrent mon pourtant regretté TEAC UD-501 et son interface Hecate. Seul point négatif : la documentation est rédute au minimum. Le site de Cambridge peu disert sur les possibilités de réglage du CXN. Va falloir s'armer de pateince et quetter les susbtantifiques infos sur les forums. La pente est raide. Mais l'écoute de l'engin est tellement enivrante que tout salaire mérite un préalable de peine. Le CXN vous paye magnifiquement en retour. Et puis… le prix avancé par HomeCiné Solutions dans le cadre d'un achat groupé (avec le CXA-80) ça achève de vous convaincre, avouons-le. Merci à eux. Livraison rapide, emballage intact. En avant le plaisir !

Xavier

Excellent polyvalent.
