That wait is over – with the ACS10, computers and other IT products are no longer necessary to listen with or manage your digital music library.ACS10 can be used as a fully-functional music server and streamer delivering a pristine digital output via an Aurender’s filtered and isolated USB 2.0 audio port.However, the highest audio performance is realized when using the ACS10 mated with models A10, N10 or W20, where its CD ripping, library management, 2X isolated LAN port, and powerful processor will greatly enhance the Aurender experience. For existing Aurender users seeking to add the functions of CD ripping, expanded storage and backup and metadata editing, the ACS10 is the ideal companion. For customers seeking that same functionality, but in a stand alone server / streamer with an external USB DAC, can use ACS10 in that way as well.ACS10 FUNCTIONALITYOne-touch CD Ripping with metadata and cover art retrieval. Industrial-grade, tray loading TEAC CD-ROM drive.Choice of FLAC, WAV and AIFF codecs. Unique user-defined target folder depository feature.Acronova Nimbie AutoLoader USB support for unattended ripping of up to 100 CDs (Nimbie is a third party product, purchased separately).Easy-to-use metadata editing application for easily correcting metadata or modifying to suit your own sorting requirementsSupport for using ACS10 as central library storage in addition to, or instead of, another Aurender music server’s internal storage.ACS10’s SmartMerge will identify a network attached W20/N10/A10/N100H/N100C or X100L and allow user to see content from both libraries combined into one. (Note: SmartMerge can only be used 1+1, one ACS10 and one Aurender music server). Additionally, the Copy, Move, Delete and Duplicate Checker utility allows unprecedented control of your digital music library’s organization.File storage is on dual 3.5” HDDs. Available factory fitted in a RAID 1 (Mirroring) configuration. Two models are available 8TB x 2 or 12TB x 2. User can change the RAID 1 factory setting making the ACS10 capable of total storage capacity of 16TB or 24TB.FEATURESAurender Conductor App Packed with Convenient Features for Full-Function ControlThe Aurender Conductor App turns the iPad into a versatile user interface for Aurender music servers. All settings and functions of the Aurender server can be easily accessed through the Settings menu, and the app comes with extensive features to make browsing and playing high resolution music collections a breeze.ACS Manager Companion AppACS10 is so packed with features, we had to give it its very own app! The ACS Manager companion app is used to configure all system settings including CD ripping preferences, Smart Copy, Move, Delete, Duplicate Checker, Smart Tag Editor, and more.State-of-the-Art Automatic CD RippingAurender’s CD ripping software, which is custom engineered to work with the high-quality TEAC CD-ROM drive, yields shockingly good CD rips! Sophisticated error detection and correction ensures accurate rips for great sounding results.Dedicated USB Audio Output PortHigh-performance USB Audio Class 2.0 output allows ACS10 to function as a music server / streamer when connected to an external DAC. ACS10’s USB audio output quality is equivalent to N10’s USB audio output.Massive HDD Storage Capacity for the Largest Music LibrariesACS10 is available in two different dual hard drive configurations to provide enough storage for even the largest digital music libraries. 16TB or 24TB versions are factory configured in RAID 1 mirroring meaning your actual music library storage capacity is half that, with the other half a mirrored image on a second drive. ACS10 can be user reconfigured to disregard mirroring and provide 16TB or 24TB total storage respective of model.Linear Power Supply with Integrated UPSFull-linear power supply plus “super capacitor” based uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for stabilizing the ACS10 under an abrupt power outage condition.Support for High-Resolution FormatsAll major codecs supported. PCM up to 786kHz/32-bit. DSD up to 256 DoP. Native DSD up to 512.MQA Core Decoder (optional in-app purchase)Aurender’s optional MQA Core Decoder upgrade enables “first-level” MQA unfolding to play MQA files at up to 48 or 96 kHz.2X Isolated LAN PortACS10 features 3 LAN ports, so it can be used as an Ethernet switch. One of three LAN Ports is 2X isolated – use this 2X isolated LAN port to connect to another Aurender server/player to isolate the server/player from any noise introduced by the LAN connection. If using ACS10 as a stand alone server, use the 2X isolated LAN to connect directly to the router.USB ConnectivityACS10 features a USB 3.0 port for super fast copying from a USB hard drive. It also features a front-mounted USB 2.0 port (for connecting a Acronova Nimbie AutoLoader) and a filtered and isolated USB Audio 2.0 port dedicated for pristine audio.PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONSSilver or Black finish16.9 x 3.3 x 14.0 inch / 430 x 83 x 355 mm (unit only)16.9 x 3.8 x 14.0 inch / 430 x 96 x 355 mm (unit with foot)27.0 lbs / 12.3 kgACS10 SPECIFICATIONSMaterial Machined AluminumSSD for System and Cache 240GB (16TB model), 480GB (24TB model)System Memory 8GB (16TB model) / 16GB (24TB model)Storage 16TB (8TB x 2) – Note: Factory default storage configuration is RAID 1, which is a “mirrored” array, so total storage capacity is halved.

About Aurender

Aurender emerged in 2010 from South Korea, founded by engineer-entrepreneur Harry Lee, a veteran of the successful TVIX video player venture under WideaLab. Frustrated by the lack of high-quality digital audio playback options, Lee launched the brand—named for "Audio Renderer"—to pioneer premium music servers that prioritized uncompromising performance and user-friendly operation. The debut S10 server, unveiled in 2011 at the California Audio Show, stunned audiophiles and experts, propelling rapid expansion with models like the flagship W20 and more accessible X100L.

The brand specializes in digital source components, including music servers, streamers, and transports, designed to eliminate the compromises of computer-based audio. Manufactured in South Korea with design and marketing handled in California, Aurender's lineup spans entry-level options like the N100 to elite references, all optimized with proprietary software for seamless streaming and file playback. This focus sidesteps amplifiers, speakers, or analog gear, zeroing in on transforming digital files into analog-rivaling sound.

Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Aurender commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its engineering excellence, reliability, and intuitive ecosystem. Trusted by professionals worldwide, it has reshaped digital playback standards, drawing top distributors and fueling a "good/better/best" range that elevates systems without complexity.
