TubeLover Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 This was shown at CES, and is said to be for sale in the first quarter of this year, which grows short. Cambridge usually offers good sound and value. This could be interesting. JC Cambridge Audio Packs Audiophile Quality into Azur 851N Network Music Player : BigPictureBigSound Link to comment
TubeLover Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 On further research, i have noted that it has no digital out, which will limit it's appeal to many with high quality DAC's already in place. JC Link to comment

Audio_ELF Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 On further research, i have noted that it has no digital out, which will limit it's appeal to many with high quality DAC's already in place. (a) it does have digital output (check the manual) (b) it's not really aimed at people who want to use an external DAC - think of it the same way as you would a CD Player (rather than CD transport and DAC). Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience... While I agree "Everything may matter" working out what actually affects the sound is a trickier thing. And I agree "Trust your ears" but equally don't allow them to fool you - trust them with a bit of skepticism. keep your mind open... But mind your brain doesn't fall out. Link to comment

I mis-read, or at least i misinterpreted the specs on the Cambridge website which, on initial examination, mention only analog outputs. JC Link to comment
