You probably already know about these but if you haven’t, just take a look at some reviews and YouTube videos for the EXN100. Save some $$$ today by buying gently used compared to the new price of $1799. Works great, sounds wonderful, looks fantastic. Comes with power cable and remote control. Pairs nicely with other E series Cambridge units or use with your stereo desperately wanting a lovely DAC and a touch of technology to turn your analog stereo into a 21st century lean, mean, music machine!
This $1,449 asking price sits just above the median of $1,352 from your three recent comparable listings, making it a fair deal for a used Cambridge Audio EXN100, though not a bargain. Since the EXN100 was recently introduced as the successor to the 851N and remains current with no direct replacement yet, timing is solid for a buyer seeking modern features without waiting for a next-gen model.
The EXN100 is well-regarded for its exceptional sound quality, rivaling Cambridge’s flagship Edge series while offering a fully updated design with StreamMagic Gen 4, an ESS ES9028Q2M DAC, and support for high-res formats up to 32/768 PCM and DSD 512. Its preamp mode, balanced XLR output, and multiroom capabilities via AirPlay 2, Google Cast, and Roon add meaningful versatility. At this fair price, it’s a strong buying opportunity for an enthusiast wanting top-tier streaming performance without the premium of new retail at $1,799.

Cambridge Audio emerged from the innovative spirit of 1960s Britain, founded in Cambridge, United Kingdom, by a group of young engineers who spun off from Cambridge Consulting Group. Established in 1968, the brand launched with the groundbreaking P40 integrated amplifier—the first to employ a toroidal transformer, setting a new standard for dynamic power delivery in hi-fi design that endures in high-end gear today. This heritage of British engineering excellence propelled decades of award-winning products, navigating ownership changes including a revival under entrepreneur Vince Adams and acquisition in 1994 by Julian Richer and James Johnson-Flint of Richer Sounds.
The brand excels across core hi-fi categories, renowned for integrated amplifiers like the iconic A1 and P-series, alongside streaming DACs, network players, turntables, and all-in-one systems that prioritize pure analogue warmth and digital precision. Speakers, headphones, and cables round out a cohesive ecosystem, emphasizing accessible high performance without excess frills.
Positioned firmly in the mid-tier market, Cambridge Audio delivers premium British sound—detailed, rhythmic, and uncolored—at prices that democratize quality for discerning buyers. Free from corporate bloat, it holds a reputation for reliability and value, appealing to enthusiasts seeking sophisticated hi-fi that punches above its weight rather than chasing ultra-high-end esoterica.
