Aurender N200 users or past users

Have you stepped up through the Aurender line? I am currently using an Aurender N150. I think I would like to move to an N200. A simple question would be is it worth it? How does the soundstage compare? Is another output useful or just decoration? Any changes subtle or substantial?

I’ve had the N200 for a while and am very happy with it using Silver Sonic Mirage USB to a Denafrips Pontus ll.  Seeing that the N150 came out after the N200, I’m not sure you are going to get an answer to your question. 
My 2 Cents.  With the N150 being newer, I’d bet it sounds different.  Some say better, some say worse, but will it be an improvement? Probably too close to be worth it.

All the best.

Thanks for all the input. I have read somewhere the N200 has a deeper stage than the N150. Both have a wide soundstage. I was looking to see if anybody experienced that.

thanks

I have had my N200 a little over 3 years.  I love it,  it gets better with each update. Support is top notch , you will rarely need it though. 

I listen to a lot of vinyl in my main rig lately but I still enjoy the N200 a lot.  Although I have several hundred CDs on it’s internal drive I think my transport sounds a little better.   

Nothing beats a streamer overall.  I am constantly discovering new music and enjoying tons of music i don’t own.  One component i could not live without
