About this deal

Even if you don’t have Hi Res audio files, you can maximise the quality of your existing ones by taking advantage of Pioneer’s HiBit 32 - 384 kHz/32 bit upsampling technology. No matter what the quality of the signal inputted into the Pioneer, upsampling technology helps produce a smoother, more natural sound than before. No solution as yet for Tidal mqa. My n70ae definitely fully unfolds mqa from usb. Please see attached pic. The direct blue led also lights when playing mqa files.

Like the N-50A, everything from build to design and usability works in its favour. It’s a perfectly good machine and a serious contender. The impressively specified N-70AE is well equipped to meet the intrinsic demands of the streaming world,however, it is in its attention to build quality that it stands out from the competition.Let's start with the hefty 11.4 kg mass of the unit which is far above the weight of most hi-fi components.The reason for this is the 3 chamber shielded chassis housing the twin power transformers that power the digital and analogue sections separately,eliminating electrical and magnetic interference. A rigid under-base of the chassis also suppresses vibration. You understand that a reasonable donation for selling fees is expected upon successful sale of your item Both of these are, however, defeated if you select the ‘Direct’ option, during which the manual says “processing that affects sound quality is shut down so sound closer to the original is reproduced”. This sounds so desirable that one wonders why any other option is considered, but as always, it’s fun to play. Three blue LEDs on the front panel indicate which of the other tweaks you’re using, so it’s easy to try these, as well as the different filter slopes of the Sabre DAC (well, two from the Sabre and one ‘short’ which is apparently Pioneer’s own addition). Of which we did plenty over our several weeks with the N-70AE, beginning with the examples noted in our introduction, and moving on to high-res delights.

Pioneer Fayola FS-W50 wireless home theatre system REVIEW

Japanese manufacturer Pioneer has become rather prolific in the world of networked audio players of late. The N-70AE represents the flagship of its four dedicated streamers – alongside a networked all-in-one system with CD player and DAB on board that claims 2 x 50W power output into 4 ohm. I notice that with my Auralic Aries G2.1 streamer that I no longer get MQA. I now get flac 48KHZ 24 bit at the most where I used to get MQA. The sound is still good but it is not MQA. I know that there was a problem with Tidal and many streaming devices with regards to no more MQA. Does anyone know what the issue is and am I now only going to get flac 48KHZ 24 bit where I used to get MQA or at least Auralic’s version of MQA? The Pioneer N-70A is a worthy flagship that builds on its sibling’s feature count and injects greater doses of detail, power and authority into performance. Connect an external HDD via USB, and you can easily listen to your whole music library without using your PC. You can even move files from your PC to the HDD via the home network while the HDD is connected to the N-70AE / N-50AE. As well as network content, the N-70AE is able to natively access Tidal, Deezer and Spotify alongside internet radio services. If you want to listen to a streaming service beyond those already on board, there’s AirPlay and Chromecast support while Flare Connect allows Pioneer – as well as components from sister brand Onkyo – to work together in a multi-room setup.

With balanced XLR, analogue RCA and both optical and coaxial digital outputs, the N70AE can be plugged into just about any system - Hi-Fi or AV. The optical and coaxial digital inputs let you plug in other digital devices and take advantage of the Pioneer's high quality DAC for further enhanced sound quality. be it high-res over the network, others that are limited to CD quality or (like Spotify) to below CD quality. You’ll get the most reliable and most highest-res performance either from those USB-connected drives, or across your local network from music shared by UPnP/DLNA from either a PC or a NAS drive, the latter having the benefit of being always available (whereas music on a PC disappears when the PC is off or sleeping). From such shares and from its optical and coaxial digital inputs the Pioneer can play WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless and FLAC up to 24-bit/192kHz, DSD (dff/dsf) at 2.8/5.6/11.2MHz, plus your lowly MP3, AAC and WMA files. Products returned under warranty will be assessed and/or repaired within a reasonable time period. You will be provided with a repair time after the item is assessed. This time may vary due to reasons beyond our or the manufacturer's control, such as parts availability and incorrect fault advice given.

Most of the changes are implemented with a short gap, and proved subtle if discernable at all in action. The upsampling had the most notable effect, seeming to add a bit of edge or presence on the likes of the crunchy guitars of Neil Young’s Walk with Me, although this kind of slight presence effect is often audible when a 44.1kHz file is resampled to 48kHz or vice versa (an iTunes speciality), which we thought might be the effect here if all files really do get upsampled to 384kHz rather than an exact multiple, e.g. 352.8kHz. But a note on Pioneer’s app implies it’s proper ×2 or ×4 upsampling (though it also says you can choose which of those you’d like, without explaining how).

Where it leaves all but the most top-notch analogue equipment standing is the bass response. The most notable aspect of this is not the The soundstage is wonderfully encompassing and nicely tight-knit as Bowie’s echoed vocals bounce between the speakers. It could do with more space, though; the Cyrus Stream Xa’s open and airy presentation has more room for instruments to work in, and better communicates depth and dimension. Not here, though. While the Pioneer N-70AE may not quite scale some of the heights of the pricier Cambridge Azur 851N, it’s among the most complete streamers we’ve seen at this price.That compromise in out-and-out performance is often the fate of components that are loaded with features.

and time elapsed as well as details of Pioneer’s myriad setup menus. The control app takes the strain in terms of control, although a remote handset is additionally supplied and the player itself feels extremely comprehensive and nicely assembled.

You can even move files from your PC to the HDD via the home network while the HDD is connected to the N-70AE / N-50AE. From the computer USB connection the capability for playing PCM rises to 32-bit/384kHz (it offered to accept 768kHz from our Mac, in fact) and DSD up again to 11.2MHz.So it is the result from some changes by Tidal.

While these brilliant streamers share a lot of common ground, each sets an example to the other in one area or another. With the current restrictions on I cannot demo, but in case restrictions are lifted, will be happy to demo for anyone willing to travel to VIC SE. You may be required to pay labour, assessment or freight costs, such as where goods are assessed to have been damaged by misuse or accident, or where the goods are assessed not to be faulty. We will provide you with a cost if this case arrises.
