Designed from scratch with zero compromises, the XACT N1 sets a new standard in high-end network audio.
No rebranded IT parts. No shortcuts. Just pure sound —
thanks to a custom motherboard
fully linear power supply
world’s first fully isolated 1Gbit Ethernet port made for audio.
Expect:
Zero digital harshness
Unmatched clarity & holography Audiophile-grade engineering from the inside out
Specification
100% custom motherboard developed exclusively for high-end music playback (100% linear powered motherboard)
optimo™ n1 linear power supply, 3 separate, galvanically isolated voltage rails power the main switch circuit, the system clock, and the isolated output individually.
master ocxo clock
1 × sfp port
4 × non-isolated 1 gbit rj45 ports (auto-negotiating)
1 × fully isolated 1 gbit rj45 port using state-of-the-art optoisolator, ensuring complete galvanic isolation of data lines, clock, control signals, and ground.
all ethernet ports feature low-noise, high common-mode noise rejection signal transformers, paired with military-spec jacks to ensure long-term reliability and optimal signal transmission.
audio-optimized software: all unnecessary protocols, including energy-saving features, are disabled to prevent any potential impact on audio performance.
this sound-first approach may result in limited compatibility with some older 100m-only devices, particularly on the isolated port. for best performance, modern gigabit-capable devices are recommended.
