    Re: Aurender N30SA

    Congrats Mike! Does Aurender allow you to do a N30SA versus W20SE shootout?

    Sure! We are going to unbox (and do a video) today. We were so slammed with demos yesterday, we didn’t have time.

    An N30SA vs Taiko Extreme shootout would be even better

    Re: Aurender N30SA

    Hi there,
    since you also own an Extreme and Shunyata v2 cables (and maybe an Everest) what power cord are you using your Extreme with and if you tried more than one: How much does it benefit from going up the ladder (say from and Alpha, to Sigma or even an Omega QR-s)?

    Many thanks for sharing!

    I tried a few cables with the Extreme , AudioQuest Hurricane, Sablon , Alpha v2 , Sigma v2 . I liked the Sigma v2 best . Only Omega I use is the USB right now . Yes each step up in the Shunyata line is a improvement.

    That's exciting, looking forward to the comparison.

    Re: Aurender N30SA

    Do anyone know why the Aurender web site is not updated with these new models?

    N30 and N200 exist but are not described.

    They are very slow to update. They will eventually get to it.

    Re: Aurender N30SA

    Things did not turn out as planned, I ended up taking the N30SA to our
    other place to replace N20 before I could compare N30SA and Extreme on
    same system.I need to let the N30SA break in more but so far I honestly believe
    the N20 is the best value for the money .
