About the Grandioso N1

The Esoteric Grandioso N1 is a premium network streamer and DAC designed for high-end digital music streaming and file playback. It represents the culmination of Esoteric's expertise in disc playback technology, clock control, and power supply design, now applied to network audio. The N1 features a fully dual-mono configuration with completely independent power supplies for left and right channels, delivering smooth, full-bodied sound reminiscent of vinyl playback. The device incorporates Esoteric's proprietary ES-Link Analog transmission method and can be connected to the Grandioso G1X external master clock generator for enhanced sound quality. The N1 supports multiple streaming services including Tidal, Tidal Connect, Qobuz, Qobuz Connect, Roon, and Spotify, and includes a music server function with two USB drive connections. It seamlessly integrates with other Grandioso components such as the K1X SE SACD player and is compatible with the Grandioso PS1 external power supply for further upgradability.
