Luxman NT-07 Network Transport (Roon Ready)
LUXMAN’s first network transport NT-07. Combining the latest digital audio technology with LUXMAN’s know-how, the NT-07 uses a thoroughly audio-focused approach to curate a wide variety of available sources with superb sound quality and a sophisticated yet comforting operational environment. In addition to USB digital audio and HDMI connectivity, streaming data from NAS and other popular music streaming services provides a variety of options for the listener to experience a new dimension of breathtaking audio quality. The NT-07, which has been rigorously fine-tuned for supreme audio playback quality, offers all listeners a new musical experience for the future in combination with existing D/A converters.
Transport functions that create an advanced network audio environment
LUXMAN’s new NT-07 transport system creates an advanced network audio environment in combination with your D/A converter (USB, optical, or coaxial digital equipped models). The principal sound source options are NAS (Network Attached Storage), which supports the industry-standard OpenHome platform, external USB storage directly connected to the main unit and a wide variety of popular music streaming services. The core processing stages are equipped with our latest generation of high-speed application processor modules that handle a wide range of complex functions effortlessly with satisfying operability.
Large-capacity power supply with thorough noise-reducing countermeasures
Like all LUXMAN’s audio components, the NT-07 is designed with a high-quality audio-focused approach. The power supply section is equipped with a large-capacity, OI-type power transformer and a pair of custom-made 10,000uF filter capacitors. Our typical, highly regulated power supply circuitry boasts high noise suppression and stability.
Stylish enclosure with high-definition organic EL display
The NT-07’s USB subsystem supports the sampling frequencies, up to 768kHz/32bit for PCM files and 22.5MHz/1bit DSD data, and the optical/coaxial output achieves 192kHz/24bit PCM reproduction. There is also a built-in core decoding function for MQA format sound sources with three selectable modes, “off”, “core decoding” and “pass-through”, according to the connected D/A converter. The centre of the front panel is equipped with a large, easy-to-read, high-definition EL display, conveying a variety of information such as the name of the song being played, artist name, elapsed time and the audio format of these selected source data.
Simple server function with full-fledged audio dedicated NAS and USB
Compatible with the OpenHome standard, the NT-07 can read sound source data stored on a dedicated music server or network-attached storage (NAS), with supreme quality playback. By choosing a NAS with noise suppression and enhanced linear power supply, such as Melco Syncrets’ DELA which was developed as an audio device, or I-O DATA Equipment’s fidata, you can achieve even higher quality and convenience when accessing high-resolution audio data. In addition, we have equipped the NT-07 with USB terminals on the front and rear (exclusive use of either) that allows you to connect USB drivers containing audio data without building a network environment.
High-quality streaming services allow you to freely enjoy a huge amount of music data
A subscription-type music streaming service that allows the listener access to nearly 100 million pieces of music for a fixed monthly fee. The NT-07 has a rich lineup of high-resolution source options and is compatible with Qobuz and TIDAL, which are integrated with the dedicated “LUXMAN Stream” app and Spotify, which has a large number of users and algorithm recommendation functions. It also supports TuneIn, which allows you to listen to Internet radio and podcast programs from around the world for free.
A dedicated app and infrared remote control provide a sophisticated operating environment
“LUXMAN Stream” is a free control app exclusively for the NT-07 that allows you to operate a variety of functions on a sophisticated screen. A dedicated interface is provided for each smartphone and tablet, allowing you to select audio sources, create playlists and configure various settings for the device. Also included is an aluminium infrared remote control that allows you to perform major operations without launching the app. You can also control the playback of LUXMAN disc players and the volume of an integrated/control amplifier. It is also equipped with control input/output terminals that link remote control operations between compatible devices.
HDMI input/output terminals also enable digital audio import from video sources
The NT-07 has an HDMI input for digital audio signals from Blu-ray players, game consoles, etc. as a means of importing audio from video sources into a 2-channel audio environment with ARC support that can also play audio from a connected TV. The HDMI output terminal provides 2-channel playback with 192kHz/24bit PCM encoding. By adding the NT-07, you can easily create a high-quality living audio system that can be used with any source, from network-based sound sources to live video and movie viewing, without disrupting your established listening style or existing system configuration.
Supports multiple network playback options including Roon and resampling functions
The NT-07 is scheduled to be compatible as an output device (Roon Ready) for the popular comprehensive music playback software Roon (certification underway as of March 2024). By specifying the NT-07 as the output destination, cast playback is also possible using Apple devices (iPhone/iPad/Mac) or Windows PCs. In addition, our intelligent resampling function matches the sampling frequency and bit depth supported by your connected D/A converter and supports each format from 44.1kHz to 384kHz for PCM data. Individual up/down sampling settings are now possible.
