Cambridge Audio has unveiled its latest streamer, the CXN100, which replaces the CXN V2 that ceased sales last year. The CXN100 features the ESS ES9028Q2M SABRE32 DAC chip, promising superior sound compared to the Wolfson WM8740 model used in its predecessor.
Developers also upgraded system components, including capacitors and operational amplifiers, resulting in reduced distortion and improved signal-to-noise ratio.
