Melco N100-H20 streamer/server

Melco introduces the radical new Model N100-H20. Staying true to every aspect of a Melco high performance digital music library, but at a new price point. Melco has broken new ground with an exciting new cosmetic, stepping away from traditional Hi-Fi component design.

N100-H20 uses the same extreme low-noise high precision digital music dataflow of the existing Melco series. N100-H20 is designed from the start as an audio specific device – it uses no standard IT components or PC parts.

A new low profile mainboard uses the exact same RISC processor and architecture as the N1Z series ensuring very low noise with precise data management. Twin Ethernet ports are retained with the dedicated Ethernet Player port connecting directly to the network player without an intervening dataswitch, ensuring that packet order and timing is maintained.

Internal storage is 2TB HDD. Easily expandable by either IT USB HDD or the Melco E100 to maintain sound quality. USB connected DAC allows the N100-H20 to perform as a self-contained local HiRes Digital Music player. Data rates up to 32bit 384kHz and Octo DSD are supported. All Gapless and with Melco Markerless DSD fully supported. Control of the USB-DAC player is from the new Melco App, from the front panel, or from approved third-party RF Remote handset N100 will operate with both USB DAC and also Ethernet connected player even without connection to a data network – standalone Isolated Mode.
