Reference network transport, focused on digital purity
The Luxman NT-07 is Luxman’s reference network transport, created for listeners who want state-of-the-art digital streaming without an internal DAC.
Its sole purpose is to deliver a clean, stable and precisely timed digital signal to the DAC of your choice.
At Authentic High End, the NT-07 is positioned as the ideal digital source for systems where conversion quality is already defined elsewhere — for example when paired with reference DACs, DACs built into preamplifiers, or active loudspeakers with digital inputs.
Positioning Within Luxman
Within Luxman’s lineup, the NT-07 sits in the Digital Players range but occupies a very specific role.
Unlike integrated digital players such as the D-10X, the NT-07:
performs no digital-to-analogue conversion
focuses exclusively on network playback and digital output quality
allows maximum flexibility in DAC choice and system architecture
It is designed for modern high-end systems where streaming is central and digital conversion is handled by a dedicated reference component.
Design Philosophy: Transport First
Luxman approaches the NT-07 as a pure digital transport, applying the same discipline it uses in its reference analogue and amplification products.
The design priorities are:
By removing the DAC section entirely, Luxman can optimise the NT-07 specifically for data integrity and timing accuracy, rather than compromise between multiple functions.
Digital Architecture & Streaming Capability
The NT-07 is designed to integrate seamlessly into modern network-based audio systems.
It supports:
network audio playback via Ethernet
high-resolution audio formats (dependent on connected DAC)
multiple digital output options for system flexibility
The focus is not on feature overload, but on robust, predictable performance and compatibility with high-quality external converters.
Listening Experience
While a network transport does not “sound” on its own, the NT-07 has a clearly audible impact on system performance.
When paired with a capable DAC, listeners typically notice:
The NT-07 allows downstream components to perform at their best by delivering a clean and consistent digital signal.
Build Quality & Design
The NT-07 follows Luxman’s modern reference design language:
brushed silver aluminium front panel
rigid, resonance-controlled chassis
clean, uncluttered layout
high-quality connectors and internal construction
It feels purposeful and understated — a component designed to disappear into the system while doing its job with absolute consistency.
System Integration
The NT-07 is ideal for:
reference DACs (stand-alone or integrated)
Luxman preamplifiers and integrated amplifiers with digital inputs
active loudspeakers with high-quality DAC sections
At Authentic High End, we often demonstrate the NT-07 in systems where the client wants streaming flexibility without replacing an existing DAC.
Why We Selected the NT-07 at Authentic High End
We selected the NT-07 because it reflects Luxman’s understanding that digital quality starts before conversion.
Rather than adding features for their own sake, Luxman focused on:
signal integrity
long-term reliability
system compatibility
In high-resolution systems, the NT-07 proves that a well-designed transport can make a meaningful difference.
