"The Pioneer N-50A is a success. If you’re in the market for a sensibly priced network audio player, look no further."
"A superstar, improved. Pioneer has done it again ... This is a talented performer, with plenty of tricks stuffed into its capacious sleeves."
Developed for the digital age, the N-50A connects to many different sources. Via a wired or wireless LAN connection, it allows you to stream music from a PC, Mac or NAS (Network Attached Storage), listen to internet radio stations using vTuner or seamless music via Spotify. The N-50A can also be used to stream music from an iPhone or iPod touch via AirPlay.
On top of that, it supports the most popular music formats, as well as high-resolution audio files via USB. With an asynchronous USB port at the back, the N-50A can act as a high-end asynchronous USB DAC. And thanks its sound-enhancing features and rigid construction, this network player lets you enjoy your music in crystal clear quality - no matter the source.
This network player is ready for Spotify Connect, which lets you select millions of songs from Spotify’s digital streaming service.
AirPlay compatibility allows enthusiasts to access their iTunes music library through their network. This network player is also DLNA certified (v1.5) to work as a Digital Media Player and Digital Media Renderer.
The USB ports let you connect to your iPhone/iPod, hard disc, PC or Mac for direct music playback. Functioning as an asynchronous USB DAC, you can enjoy hi-res audio files like DSD and PCM - even without a network connection.
The Pioneer ControlApp lets you stream music directly to the player without using an additional app. It is freely available for your iPhone and iPod touch on the App Store and for your Android device on Google Play.
This network player has an easy-to-read 3.5” colour LCD screen, which allows you to add album art to your WAV albums. Just place a jpg-file of the cover art in your music folder and you will always know what is playing.
