Top-of-the-line "Network x DAC" • Master Sound Discrete DAC • ES-Link 5 • 10MHz Clock In
The Esoteric N-01XD SE Network DAC is designed as a reference "network x DAC" platform that brings Esoteric's latest digital processing, clocking, and power-supply engineering into one high-performance component. Built around Esoteric's Master Sound Discrete DAC architecture and upgraded SE tuning, it is engineered to deliver an organic, three-dimensional presentation with exceptional dynamic swing and control.
From high-resolution streaming and local libraries to computer audio and transport-based digital playback, the Esoteric N-01XD SE Network DAC is built to anchor a serious two-channel system.
Master Sound Discrete DAC — A two-channel stereo discrete DAC concept derived from Esoteric's flagship DAC development philosophy, using multiple independent elements per channel for low-loss musical energy transfer.
Advanced digital processing — Esoteric's Delta-Sigma modulator and FPGA-based processing are developed to optimize conversion for both PCM and DSD playback.
Esoteric-HCLD output buffer — High-current, high-speed buffer topology supports strong current drive and dynamic bass authority.
Clocking built for refinement — The Esoteric N-01XD SE Network DAC includes a 10MHz clock input to synchronize with an external master clock generator for higher timing precision in a compatible setup.
High-rigidity chassis — Thick aluminum and steel construction with Esoteric's patented Pinpoint feet and a semi-floating top panel supports mechanical grounding and reduced resonance.
You can connect a network/Ethernet source for streaming and control, a computer via USB-B, and multiple digital sources via XLR (AES/EBU), coaxial, and optical inputs. USB-A ports support external storage for local playback.
ES-Link 5 is Esoteric's ultra-wideband digital transmission standard designed for compatible Esoteric digital transports, supporting very high-rate PCM and DSD transfer for Super Audio CD and other digital playback workflows.
No. The unit is designed to perform at a very high level on its own, but advanced systems can use the 10MHz clock input to synchronize with a compatible external master clock generator.
