EX-Stream Excellence
EXN100 is the music-streaming brains of your new EX system, delivering an experience that goes beyond CX. Expertly refined at our London HQ, the EX range is a leap forward – its performance is rivalled only by our flagship Edge series.

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger
Our team of audio experts pushed the ESS Reference DAC from the celebrated CXN100 to its limits, meticulously fine-tuning every element of the signal path. Put simply: we took the best and made it breathtaking.

Wirelessly Stream a World of Music
Effortlessly explore a universe of sound with seamless support for Spotify, TIDAL, Deezer, Qobuz, Internet Radio, and more – thanks to our cutting-edge StreamMagic platform.
It’s Roon Ready, too. Whatever your playlist, the EXN100 reveals new depths to every note.

Get Yourself Connected
EXN100 makes connecting a variety of sources simple, with HDMI eARC too – so you can elevate the audio from your favourite TV shows and movies. It’s a sound upgrade you’ll feel as much as hear.

In the Air Tonight
Cut the cords without cutting the quality. Enjoy aptX HD Bluetooth for rich, wireless streaming from devices such as an Alva turntable. With Chromecast built-in and AirPlay 2, streaming directly from your phone or laptop is just as effortless – and just as stunning.

A Design For Life
It’s not just performance and features that make the EX range exceptional: the design is a cut above, too. Enjoy style and substance, with premium aluminium casework and a gloriously tactile knurled control knob.

I Can See Clearly Now
Enjoy a larger, clearer view of album artwork – or our iconic VU meters option – with EXN100’s large hi-res display screen. It’s never been easier to see what you’re hearing!

You’ve Got The Magic Touch
The StreamMagic App gives you full control of EXN100 and is a gateway to discovering more of the music, podcasts and radio stations you love. Your next great listen is just a swipe away.

Pump Up The Volume
Activate EXN100’s Preamp Mode to make it a digital hub, with volume control via the StreamMagic App, remote or rotary dial. It’s a versatile partner for any power amp or vintage system.
