ACS100

The Utility Player – CD Ripping and Library Management

Automatic CD Ripping / Library Management / Metadata Editing Central Server Hub for Library Expansion and Multi-Room Systems, 2x Slots for User-Installable 2.5″ HDD or SSD Drive, Digital Output Network Transport

The Multi-Talented Utility Player

ACS100 offers a sensible solution to add CD Ripping, Library Management, and Central Server functionality to any Aurender system. Conceived as an accessory upgrade or add-on, ACS100 includes all the utility of ACS10 in a simpler package.

ACS100 uses a less expensive external switch-mode power supply instead of a linear power supply. It also omits the dedicated filtered & isolated USB audio output since its highest and best use is as a stand-alone Central Server.

Therefore, it is the ideal add-on companion to A200, A15, A20, N20, W20SE and N30SA. And, while adding valuable functionality to another Aurender, ACS100 can simultaneously be used as a source component for a second system.

Features

  • HDD storage with SSD cache
  • Acronova Nimbie AutoLoader USB support for unattended ripping of up to 100 CDs
  • Easy-to-use metadata editing application for easily correcting metadata or modifying to suit your own sorting requirements
  • Uses 2 x 2.5" SATA or SSD
  • Use the ACS100 Manager app to control all settings, and the Conductor app for music library control
  • Linear power supply with integrated UPS
  • MQA core decoder available as an in-app purchase
  • USB 3.0 for fast copying, and a USB 2.0 Audio output for clean output to a DAC

Key Features

Reference Quality Automatic CD Ripping

ACS is for the music lover looking to convert a collection of CDs to a file-based format in the highest quality available. Enjoy lossless, error-corrected CD rips using ACS’s TEAC optical drive and customized audiophile CD ripping engine.

Metadata Editing and Library Management

Like any precious collection, Music Libraries need curation. The dedicated ACS Manager app allows the user to manage, catalog, and groom a vast library for easy access. Browse your library with pride again.

Central Server Hub

Do you have more than one system in your home? Think of ACS as your musical “mothership” where your music library lives. Other Aurender systems on your network can stream your library from ACS seamlessly. With ACS handling the content storage/server tasks, your other systems run nice and light for superior audio performance.

User-Installable Storage Options

ACS100 is built with two trays for user-installable storage. Install up to two 8TB SSDs for 16TB of internal storage capacity! This is enough to accommodate even the largest music libraries.

Nimbie Auto-Loader Compatibility

For large CD archival projects, connect an Acronova Nimbie Auto Loader (sold separately) for automated batch ripping.

Future-Proofed Processing Power

The ACS system incorporates significant processing power and system memory designed to maximize headroom for expanded functionality now and in the future.

Why Choose Aurender

Aurender is a South Korean digital audio manufacturer widely regarded as one of the benchmark brands in high-end music server and streaming playback. Unlike many products that simply add streaming functionality to existing digital platforms, Aurender systems are purpose-built from the ground up as dedicated music servers designed specifically for serious audio performance, long-term reliability, and seamless library management.

What makes Aurender particularly distinctive is the company’s singular focus on minimising noise, preserving signal integrity, and creating a highly stable digital playback environment. Every aspect of the platform — from internal power supply architecture through to storage management and data handling — is engineered specifically for audio playback rather than general-purpose computing. The result is a presentation that feels exceptionally refined, natural, and free from the harshness or instability that can affect lesser digital systems.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Aurender products consistently impress through their combination of sonic performance, software maturity, and long-term ownership experience. These are not simply streamers — they are highly sophisticated music management and playback systems designed for listeners who take digital audio seriously.

Signature Design and Sound

Aurender products are engineered around a dedicated server-first philosophy. Rather than functioning as conventional streamers that also happen to store music, Aurender systems are designed primarily as high-performance music servers with integrated streaming capability. This architecture allows far greater control over noise management, storage integrity, playback stability, and data handling throughout the playback chain.

One of the key technologies within Aurender products is their solid-state memory cache system. Music is first loaded into high-speed cache memory before playback occurs, reducing reliance on spinning drives or network activity during listening and helping minimise timing irregularities and jitter within the digital signal path. This contributes to the remarkably smooth, stable, and analogue-like presentation Aurender products are known for.

Aurender also places enormous emphasis on power supply implementation and system stability. Carefully designed low-noise linear DC power supplies are used throughout the range, while integrated UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) protection systems help safely manage shutdown procedures and protect stored music data in the event of unexpected power loss.

The substantial aluminium chassis designs incorporate resonance control, electrical shielding, and beautifully integrated high-resolution OLED displays that elevate the overall ownership experience while remaining functional and elegant within high-end systems. Many Aurender models also support internal SSD storage expansion, allowing customers to build extensive local music libraries directly within the server platform itself.

Another major strength of the Aurender ecosystem is the proprietary Aurender App, regarded as one of the most polished and stable music management platforms available in high-end audio. The app allows users to manage streaming services, local libraries, metadata, playlists, and music organisation intuitively while even enabling real-time editing and management of music libraries during playback. Behind the platform sits a dedicated engineering team of more than 28 full-time software and hardware specialists focused entirely on maintaining system stability, functionality, and long-term platform development.

Aurender Product Range

The Aurender range includes dedicated music servers, streamer/server combinations, digital transports, and high-performance playback platforms designed to suit everything from compact streaming systems through to world-class reference audio installations. Products are available across multiple performance levels, allowing customers to progressively scale storage capacity, processing power, power supply sophistication, and digital output performance as systems evolve.

Aurender products are particularly appealing for listeners seeking a highly stable, beautifully integrated, and purpose-built digital playback ecosystem capable of managing extensive music libraries while delivering exceptional sonic refinement and long-term reliability.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Geoff and his experienced system setup team provide assistance with library migration, SSD installation, network integration, digital system matching, and full Aurender configuration to ensure customers achieve the best possible performance and usability from their music server systems.
