Review

In terms of functionality, the CXN exceeds everyone in its price category and many with a price of 1.5–2 times higher. He keeps the WIFI connection well, but I connected it with a cable. The management is very simple, in the applications you can see CXN V2 as an external device. An excellent thing Chromecast is supported in Yandex-music services and ZVUK (Sberbianculations). At the ZVUK service from a premium subscription (199 rubles per month), tracks in CD quality are available. But the music on Tidal Hifi sounds better. Before buying at Pult.ru, I compared with Primar Prisma and Hegel H95. The sound of Cambridge seemed to me more lively than Primare, more neutral and airy than Hegel. Of course, Primare and Hegel have their advantages, but in general, by sound these are devices of the same class. Cambridge sound is closer to me. The sound of Cambridge CXN V2 is English - soft, but with good dynamics, neutral tonal balance, the sound is very detailed, with a good scene, a lot of air. The CXN works well as an external DAC. According to the genres, everything plays equally well. Jazz and classic sound magical. But the CXN recording disadvantages will show you clearly. My opinion Cambridge CXN V2 is an outstanding device, the best in its price category and may well compete with more expensive devices Many thanks to the consultants Pult.ru for listening and organizing the purchase.

Pros

Acceptable sound, connection capabilities

Minuses

Regularly loses Wi-Fi, there is no Deezer service, dull backlighting the selection of a menu item on the screen

Review

A good, but definitely not outstanding sound. He regularly loses the Wi-Fi network and, accordingly, interrupts the sound both on the Internet radio and on music services (about 2-3 minutes of the break every 20-40 minutes). At the same time, there are no problems from the phone in the same network at all. This is the second device, the first did not join the network at all, I had to make an exchange. I probably would have handed it back and this instance, but it is not clear what to change.

Sound, function, application, balance

Does not support Deezer (at least for now)

Review

Acquired for a ligament with Rotel 1572MKII and Bowers Wilkins 705 Signature Connected at a balance exit. Streamer added details and focus scene (in comparison, say with the SD streamer Maratz 8006) The sound is good, and the scene and the air, while you can’t hear sharpness The application is generally cool, it happens that sometimes it can lay something (but on average the market is good). It is unequivocally worthy to be listened even in comparison with apparatus more expensive

I purchased the deed with delivery. They got it quickly, but when receiving it was discovered, something blurted inside. I made it to the manager, they quickly decided. I sent it back, replaced with a new one and sent it. The apparatus is very happy. I will all this store!

DAC?

Review

Up to 100 tr Probably there is no alternative. I myself sin by some selectivity to the Tsap microcircuits (I prefer Asahi Kasei and I do not complain about the ECS), as for Wolphson 8740 this is the real ancient shit of the mammoth! I had a SA-650 on it and even then it was not a novelty. I generally liked that Sidyuk Cambridge. He did not have digital synthetics, did not whisper, did not burn the gyrus and sounded closer to the analogue, approximately like the MM head Ortofon Red. In terms of the detail of the stars from the sky, I didn’t have enough, in the dynamics, too, but played together, whole, painted a good spatial picture ... i.e. I expected something similar by analogy. But in fact I heard completely different! I do not know what the company's engineers smoke there and what the cheap DACs Wolfson are fumigating, but to make them sound tantamount to a feat! Details and presentation at the top as that of AK4497, dynamics and rhythm as ESS9018 and all the buns from maintaining the ingenious and comfort of the old one 8740. I have long heard in CD Cyrus on Cyrus-Logic chips, but the price tag was then even on the times of the 2000s Not at all sour, around 3,000 pounds. In general, the test! Who needs a decent network streamer can no longer search. PS In the SA-81 amplification, the DAC is seriously inferior in sound, so that for the Cambridge monobrand rack: the transport of SD to this network player, the player is already in the amp.

It is very convenient to control this streamer using the Streammagic company application from the phone and therefore you can remove the remote control into a distant box, forgetting about it. Conducted a large number of switching connectors and the ability to use as a DAC.

Many thanks to the store consultant, which helped to decide on the model. This is my first network to play, which I bought. And it was not for nothing that Cambridge Audio CXN V2 Lunar Grey stopped. The quality is noticeable and from the first seconds of the sound and in general in handling equipment. It is not difficult to connect, it is very simple in management. The cost of the purchase is very pleased, as well as the work of the store employees.

I chose among several, I want to note the professionalism of the manager, I helped you understand the advantages and disadvantages of each model. The Cambridge Audio CXN V2 decided to purchase the network player due to the following advantages - an excellent sound, the ability to connect to amplifiers. There is also a network management application. Personally, I only lack Deeezer support.
