The new Matrix Audio Reference NT-1 is a music server/network transport 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.
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.
The bottom of the device features an NVMe SSD slot, allowing for the installation of an SSD to expand internal storage. A specially designed ultra-low-noise independent power supply ensures a quiet operating environment for the SSD, which surpasses what an ordinary computer can offer.
This clock system derives from the flagship model of Matrix Audio, which has dual modes. In internal clock mode, the femtosecond clock provides a reference for the RF synthesizer, outputting a highly stable, low-phase-noise audio clock. In external clock mode, the incoming clock signals become the reference for the RF synthesizer, outputting an audio clock that is highly stable, low-phase-noise, and phase-synchronized with the input clock. When paired with Matrix Audio SC-1 audio-grade clock source, it can further tap into the audio performance potential of the device and move to an even higher level.
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.
