High-Resolution Network Streaming Cartridge • Standalone Network Transport Capability • Up to 24-Bit/192kHz LPCM • DSD64 via DoP • Wi-Fi & Ethernet • Optical Toslink Output • TIDAL Connect • Qobuz Connect • Spotify Connect • AirPlay 2
The Advance Paris A-NTC Network Cartridge Transport is a modular high-resolution network streamer developed to expand compatible Advance Paris NOVA integrated amplifiers without adding another full-size component to the system. Inserted into the amplifier's dedicated A-NTC expansion slot, the compact module adds Wi-Fi and wired Ethernet streaming while allowing the amplifier's internal digital-to-analog conversion and audio circuitry to handle playback.
The A-NTC can also operate independently as a compact network transport. With the supplied power connection, its optical Toslink output can feed a compatible external DAC, integrated amplifier or other digital component. Current streaming support includes TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Spotify Connect and AirPlay 2, with high-resolution playback up to 24-bit/192kHz LPCM and DSD64 via DoP.
Cartridge-Style Modular Architecture — The Advance Paris A-NTC Network Cartridge Transport is designed around Advance Paris's expandable NOVA architecture. Rather than requiring a permanently integrated streaming platform, the A-NTC allows network capability to be added as a dedicated modular component.
24-Bit/192kHz Network Audio — The A-NTC supports LPCM digital audio up to 24-bit/192kHz, covering high-resolution music from compatible services and network sources. DSD64 playback is also supported using the DoP transport method.
Dual-Band Wi-Fi & 100Mbps Ethernet — Built-in 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac networking, while the RJ45 Ethernet port provides a wired 100Mbps connection for systems where maximum network stability is preferred.
Optical Digital Output — In standalone operation, the A-NTC functions as a true digital network transport and sends its audio signal through Toslink. This allows it to be partnered with an external DAC or virtually any audio component equipped with a compatible optical digital input.
No. The Advance Paris A-NTC Network Cartridge Transport is designed to integrate directly with compatible Advance Paris NOVA components, but it can also operate independently as a compact network transport using its supplied power connection and optical Toslink output.
Advance Paris currently lists TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Spotify Connect and AirPlay 2. Roon Ready and Chromecast functionality have been announced as expected future updates and should not be assumed active until Advance Paris releases the applicable firmware.
The A-NTC supports LPCM audio at resolutions up to 24-bit/192kHz. It also supports DSD64 playback using DSD-over-PCM, commonly abbreviated DoP.
Either connection can be used. Dual-band Wi-Fi provides convenient wireless installation, while the RJ45 Ethernet connection may be preferred for fixed audio systems where maximum network stability and consistency are priorities.
Advance Paris NOVA amplifier, Ethernet cable, optical Toslink cable, external DAC, source device and other system components are sold separately.
