REVIEW & AWARDS Cambridge Audio MXN10 review - Read More "Cambridge Audio has done it again. A small size and an even smaller price tag might have put some niggling doubts in our minds before testing, but those soon fall away once we unleash the MXN10 in our test rooms. It’s no exaggeration to say that the likes of Audiolab and Bluesound need to be worried. Both of these companies have dominated the entry-level music streamer market for a number of years now, but Cambridge Audio has now crashed that party. Is the MXN10 the finest affordable music streamer on the market? It could well be." - What Hi-Fi? Cambridge Audio MXN10 Network Streamer Review - Read More "What results is a streamer that joins a small crowd of affordable devices that demonstrate an elegant balance of user friendliness and out and out performance to make them stand out from the pack. As noted, in absolute terms, the Cambridge Audio comes up short against the honed perfection of the BluOS interface but it’s a testament to the experience that Cambridge Audio has in this field as to how close it gets. And the trade off is that this little box of tricks sounds better; indeed there’s not much under a grand I’d choose over it. Cambridge Audio became one of the early front runners of affordable streaming with the NP30 and they still are with the MXN10. The result is that this talented little box has to be seen as a Best Buy." - Ed Selley Cambridge Audio MXN10 and DacMagic 200M Review - Read More "The Cambridge Audio MXN10 network streamer and DacMagic 200M digital-to-analog converter make a handsome pair, and competently go about their business of making music. I can imagine this stack of components adorning the desktops of many happy music-lovers. If you want to make one purchase and never look back, I doubt you’d ever be distracted or dissatisfied by what the Cambridge duo has to offer, with the one caveat that serious headphone enthusiasts would want to add a dedicated headphone amp. On the other hand, if you’re the kind of audiophile who carefully considers every angle before making an audio purchase, it makes sense to evaluate the two components separately, within the context of their competitors." - Jacob Green Readers’ Award 2023: Cambridge Audio MXN10 raises the budget streamer bar - Read More "We think it’s the best streamer around for this sort of money and it seems enough of you out there have found out for yourselves and agree with our verdict. The MXN10 is a worthy winner of this year’s Readers’ Award. " - Joe Cox Cambridge Audio MXN10 Network Player: Review - Read More "Not offering support for MQA feels rather irrelevant at this point unless Lenbrook plans on launching its own music streaming platform and with easy access to almost every major streaming platform through the app — the Cambridge Audio MXN10 offers exactly what we need." - Ian White STREAMING MUSIC PLAYER OF THE YEAR UNDER $5000 - Read More "Judges’ Comment: Fronted by the excellent StreamMagic app, this little Cambridge streamer is a pocket rocket that can bring streaming smarts to any existing audio system."
