Esoteric proudly launches Grandioso N1T, the first-ever network streamer in the prestigious Grandioso series. Designed to redefine audio performance, the N1T seamlessly pairs with the renowned Grandioso D1X SE monoblock DACs and the K1X SE Super Audio CD Player with DAC, to unlock a new dimension of streaming playback and the unmistakable craftsmanship that defines the Grandioso name.
The new era of high-end streaming transport has arrived – Grandioso N1T is equipped with the 4th generation “Esoteric Network Engine G4”, a newly developed top-of-the-line engine with the processing power worthy of a flagship streamer. The new engine features large-capacity RAM, a powerful CPU, and an SFP port for optical network connections. The engine and audio circuitry are meticulously engineered for complete isolation, safeguarding signal purity. Independent linear power supplies for each circuit elevate the experience further, producing sound that is strikingly smooth, lifelike, and reminiscent of the feeling of vinyl playback.
By connecting the Grandioso N1T to an external network device (such as a switch) using an SFP module and fiber optic cable, you can isolate the signal from network noise, achieving unparalleled purity in playback. Alternatively, a metal cable connection using a Direct Attach Cable (DAC) can simplify the network signal path by reducing the number of circuits involved.
