Matrix Audio proudly presents the NT-1, a groundbreaking masterpiece designed for audiophiles in pursuit of perfection. This high-end digital audio transport unlocks the vast world of network streaming, extending beyond the limitations of traditional audio sources, and infuses your audio system with new energy.
Matrix Audio introduces a new family design language, equipped with the same Hi-Fi streaming hardware as the M Series. With a powerful core upgrade and a next-level display enhancement, it delivers a brand-new experience that captivates both your ears and eyes.
The ever-evolving MA Player Hi-Fi Streamer OS and MA Remote App seamlessly adapt to both iOS and Android devices. Whether on a smartphone or a tablet, enjoy a smooth and intuitive interactive experience.
With the SMB protocol, computers on the same network can easily access the device's storage, making it simple to manage your music library. Additionally, the device can function as a NAS, enabling other streamers on the same network to seamlessly play the stored music.
Optical, coaxial, AES/EBU and IIS-LVDS output ports are available, which can easily connect to various digital audio devices such as DACs and amplifiers to meet your diverse audio connection needs. If you connect it to an active speaker with digital input, you can also enable the digital volume function, no need to add an additional speaker controller, and the volume can be adjusted easily.
NT-1 features an audio-specific USB DAC interface with electrical isolation. It not only deeply optimizes transmission noise, but also isolates the ground ware of USB port from the device ground wire, fundamentally reducing noise and interference during audio transmission and ensuring the purity of the audio signal.
It is worth mentioning that the linear power supply of NT-1 is unique, with independent windings and a precise low-noise regulator circuit, providing the USB DAC interface with a dedicated power supply isolated from the digital part, further ensuring the stability and low noise of audio transmission, and bringing you the ultimate Hi-Fi experience.
With different SFP modules, you can freely expand a optical fiber or Ethernet ports as needed. When used with audio grade network switch from Matrix Audio, it can create a more efficient and stable network connection to meet the needs of Hi-Fi scenarios.
The power supply system is built by a 60W toroidal transformer and multiple LDOs. The power for the digital audio processing core and the USB DAC interface are supplied by two independent windings of the transformer, ensuring stable operation of each part and effectively reducing noise interference.
