   Pioneer’s N-50 is a very good networked audio player for critical listeners who prefer discrete audio components over integrated receivers. While it lacks a few features found in Marantz’s pricier NA7004 (namely, a headphone jack/amp, an RS-232 port, and support for subscription music services such as Pandora), Pioneer delivers superior Android and iOS apps and optional wireless networking.

   Pioneer has done a great job with the N-50. It handles all the major high-resolution formats such as FLAC, ALAC, and AIFF, and it can play high-resolution content up to 24-bit/192 kHz. Its support for Apple's AirPlay makes it easy to use within the Apple ecosystem of products. Thanks to standards like DLNA, products like the N-50 can be controlled and integrated into a wide range of configurations. Lees Meer Translate to Nederlands

   Network-enabled hi-fi separates are evolving at a fiercesome pace but Pioneer’s N-50 is sufficiently ahead of the pack that it sets the standard in its class.

The N-50 is also a lot heavier than its slim profile suggests thanks to its multiple power supplies and reinforced chassis. Lees Meer Translate to Nederlands

   Elite is Pioneer’s premier home audio line, much like Lexus is to Toyota. That means you can expect better build quality, a longer warranty, step-up features, and premium performance. New to Elite this year are two network audio players, the N-30 and N-50, that stream audio (including high-rez files up to 192-kHz/24-bit) from a computer, play Internet radio, and use Apple’s AirPlay for easy wireless networking with iOS devices.

   Pioneer has obviously gone to great lengths to make the N-50 a rewarding machine to own – not just in terms of design, features and functionality, but also performance. Its undoubted abilities will certainly give some rival manufacturers plenty of food for thought. Lees Meer Translate to Nederlands
