Overview

The compact, preferred choice for a connected Hi-Res Audio experience

The Cambridge MXN10 Network Player can bring the world of high-resolution music to hi-fi and other audio systems. Its compact, mid-width footprint offers placement flexibility. The MXN10 can access free music, including Internet radio, as well as subscription services. The MXN10 can also play high-resolution music from USB sticks and NAS servers. With the MXN10 you can enjoy all the pleasures of digital music from an unlimited number of sources through a single compact unit, all conveniently controlled by the CambridgeStreamMagic app from your mobile.

The Streaming Revolution

The MXN10 is powered by Cambridge's latest StreamMagic Gen 4 module and software . It's intuitive to use and can play music at an incredible 768KHz 32bit PCM or DSD512 resolution - to satisfy even the most demanding listeners.

The MXN10 can access both subscription and free high-resolution streaming services , including internet radio, Spotify Connect, Tidal, Deezer and Qobuz - all built in for optimum sound quality. With Apple Airplay2 and Chromecast built in, you can access Apple Music, and more.

Internet radio and live streaming

Enjoy the joys of traditional radio, except it comes over the internet rather than the airwaves. You can listen to your favourite broadcast stations, internet-only specialty channels, and many other stations from around the world - all for free. Plus, discover many stations that are of much higher quality than DAB.

You don't want to use the StreamMagic application! That's okay, you can listen to your favourite songs on your mobile phone via Bluetooth. What's more, if you have high-resolution FLAC files on a USB stick, you can listen to them in hi-fi quality, simply by inserting a USB stick into the MXN10's USB port.

Easy to use

Using the MXN10 is very simple. The StreamMagic app allows intuitive control of connected sources - setting presets, browsing albums or creating playlists, all conveniently from your mobile device. You can also program a row of buttons on the front panel for direct access to Internet radio stations and your favourite playlists.

Rotate the MXN10 to reveal a pair of analogue RCA phono outputs, coaxial and optical digital output, USB input, a pair of Wi-Fi antenna sockets for connecting to a wireless network - or a LAN cable input if you prefer. The analogue and digital outputs also work simultaneously.

The MXN10 has a very elegant appearance. Its timeless aluminium design and compact 215 mm half-width format make it a perfect match for the DacMagic200M and Alva Duo. It offers placement flexibility and breathes new life into any hi-fi setup - including your old amp. With satellite upgrades, the MXN10 is sure to keep you happy for many years to come.

    a good buy for a reasonable price; a wonderful, rich experience, to be recommended

    a beautiful network player, very compact and versatile, a very nice sound experience, the Cambridge Audio sound that I have already tested with the excellent DacMagic 200 in the same compact format;
    this player also exists in 43 cm Hifi format, according to the various sources consulted, the electronic board is the same.
    the Stream Magic application, sometimes a little slow, but well done and practical to use, even with an antediluvian smartphone (2014), so this application allows you to control the device delivered without a remote control.
    The four pre-select buttons on the front panel are also very practical and useful.

    check out the positive reviews on the internet of this network player, which I personally find sober, beautiful and well designed: for example https://blog.son-video.com/2023/06/test-cambridge-mxn-10-la-musique-hi-res-dans-toute-sa-richesse/
    which lets you see the insides of this beautiful machine!
    A good buy at a reasonable price; a great experience, to be recommended! CM
