I just got the smaller MXN10 delivered to the house. I popped in to ASR to see if there was any data or feedback on the unit. I literally just hooked it (listened to 3 tracks thru Tidal) up then stepped outside for a smoke. Super simple quick install...I Ethernet cabled into the back of the unit and I'm going to hook up the wifi/Chromecast in just a minute. I coaxed out into a RME ADI-2. I believe the 10 has an internal Dac, i'll try it out this weekend.
The CastMagic app has a good layout and is pretty quick to respond..unlike some other streaming apps. I had a CXN2 for a little while about a year ago so I'm kinda familiar with their app. It seems like they changed or improved it..or maybe I just don't completely remember how it was. It is definitely workable though in my opinion...and without a bunch of lag.
In the past in my home I've had the original Node, a WiiM, Zen Stream, the Cambridge CXN2, the B&W Formation streamer, and Arcam SA30's internal streamer. I would have ranked the Cambridge app behind the Node's and WiiM's...but definitely better than the Arcam, Zen, and B&W's home apps in my opinion. I'm hoping Cambridge improved upon what was already a decent app in my opinion. Too early to tell but it seems strong and promising.
Those 4 buttons on the front are supposed to be for saved playlists. You should be able to walk up to it, press a button, and instantly get one of your favorite playlists running. Kinda cool I guess. The device seems solidly built. Has a little weight considering the size. Packaging and box is very nice, gave me that hi-end feeling lol. I'll spend some time with the app and unit and give some feedback and pics after a couple days with it.
