EXA100 100W stereo amplifier and EXN100 StreamMagic Gen 4 network streamer, supplied as a matching two-component system.
The Cambridge Audio EXA100 and EXN100 form a matching two-component stereo system. The EXA100 supplies Class AB amplification rated at 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms, while the EXN100 provides StreamMagic Gen 4 network music playback.
The EXN100 offers balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA analogue outputs, matching the corresponding inputs on the EXA100. High-resolution conversion, network services and internet radio sit alongside the amplifier’s analogue and digital connections, giving the system room for additional sources.
HDMI eARC allows compatible television audio to join the hi-fi system. Loudspeakers are required and are not included in this amplifier-and-streamer set.
