Here at Cambridge Audio, we’ve been working hard to make your 851N experience even better! There is a new firmware update.
The next time you switch on your 851N it will automatically see that an update is available and will prompt you to update. Alternatively, you can update your device manually by going to Settings > Upgrade Firmware.

- Improved TIDAL Connect stability.
- Fixed occasional pops and clicks at the end of some DSD tracks.
- Fixed German translation for "Skip" which prevented users from completing setup.
- Fixed playback of invalid or corrupted .dsf files.
NB: Please be aware that once updated your device will no longer support browsing TIDAL from the front panel Library of the device or from the Cambridge Connect app.
This is because accessing Tidal via the front panel and through the Cambridge Connect app uses an older method of log-in that Tidal is phasing out for security reasons. In order to be able to make use of the functionality of Tidal connect we have therefore had to remove access via these methods at Tidal's request. The more modern log-in method in the StreamMagic app is much more secure.
We do apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause.
