Network player joins Evo models in receiving over-the-air software update

Cambridge Audio CXN100 VU meters update

Cambridge Audio has introduced VU meters and a clock display to its acclaimed CXN100 network player, via an over-the-air software update.

This update was previously announced for the Evo 75, Evo 150 and Evo 150 DeLorean Edition streaming amplifier models, but due to popular demand has been extended to include the CXN100.

Thanks to the over-the-air (OTA) software update, every CXN100 and Evo model will be able to receive these new display options, accessible via the (i) button on the front of the unit. This gives listeners the choice to switch between viewing the VU meters, an easy-to-read digital clock, or to showcase the current album artwork while playing.

Showing the live signal levels of audio equipment, VU (volume unit) meters have become iconic for the retro ticking needles that defined an analogue audio era.

The CXN100 network player was announced in February 2024 as a ground-up redesign of the multi-award-winning CXN V2.

OTA update available now for CXN100 and all Evo models. Cambridge Audio CXN100 ($1099/£899/€1049) is stocked at cambridgeaudio.com and selected retailers.
