The N-01XE network/DAC is more than the successor to the acclaimed N-01XD SE. By incorporating the Master Sound Discrete DAC G2 and Esoteric Network Engine G4, both derived directly from the flagship Grandioso N1, it brings Esoteric’s latest digital playback technologies to the prestigious 01 Series.
Esoteric’s proprietary “Master Sound Discrete DAC” has evolved into its second-generation G2 architecture, achieving even higher performance while preserving its signature musicality. The next-generation “Esoteric Network Engine G4” enables even purer streaming via optical network connections.
