Matrix Design

The TT-1s industrial design showcases a new concept of simplicity. With hundreds of circular perforations of varying sizes and depths arranged in an array on the simple hexahedron, resembling rhythmic beats dancing and emerging on the surface.

"Evaluating audio products from the dimensions of 'listening' and 'looking' has always been our consistent philosophy. From concept to design, every step contains the love for music and the pursuit of beauty."

Inheriting And Upgrading

Matrix Audio proudly presents the TT-1, a digital streaming transport for your Hi-Fi that inherits Matrix Audio's new family design language, and is equipped with the same Hi-Fi streaming hardware as the M Series. The TT-1 takes care of all your local digital and streaming music needs, while leaving the DAC up to a separate unit - allowing you to use your own preferred DAC solution and keep the ability to upgrade down the line.

Continuous Evolution, Easier To Use

Powered by the Hi-Fi streaming hardware platform from the Matrix Audio M Series, the TT-1 delivers a significant leap in performance. Its upgraded display and the ever-evolving MA Player Hi-Fi Streaming OS, paired with the MA Remote App, provide seamless compatibility with both iOS and Android devices. Whether using a smartphone or tablet, you'll experience an effortlessly smooth and intuitive user experience.

Unlimited Resources at Your Fingertips

Enjoy Local & Cloud Music

Mount your NAS drive to the device, allowing you to create a music library directly from your NAS. If your music is stored in the cloud, such as Baidu Netdisk, it can also be mounted directly on the device.

NVMe SSD Slot

An NVMe SSD slot is located at the bottom of the chassis, allowing for easy installation of an SSD (not included). A specially designed, independent ultra-low-noise power supply ensures a quiet operating environment for the SSD - something that sets it apart from conventional computers.

Shareable Internal Storage

With the SMB protocol, computers on the same network can easily access the device's storage, making it simple to manage your music library. Additionally, the device can function as a NAS, enabling other streamers on the same network to seamlessly play the stored music.

Smart Wake Up & Trigger Control

Whether playing local music or online streaming audio, the device can be automatically woken up. And the back-end DAC or amplifier can be started through the trigger connection, which is automatic and convenient without any manual operation.

Dual Femtosecond Clocks

Equipped with two ultra-low phase noise femtosecond clocks, each dedicated to serving as the clock reference for 44.1kHz and 48kHz sampling rates and their multiples. Powered by independent low-noise linear regulators, and with intelligent control through FPGA, it automatically handles frequency division and switching operations. This design lays a solid foundation for low-jitter digital audio output.

Multiple Interfaces

Optical, coaxial, AES/EBU and IIS-LVDS output ports are available, which can easily connect to various digital audio devices such as DACs and amplifiers to meet your diverse audio connection needs. If you connect it to an active speaker with digital input, you can also enable the digital volume function, no need to add an additional speaker controller, and the volume can be adjusted easily.

Digital Management

Simply connect a USB CD drive and use the MA Remote App, you can convert CD albums into digital audio files and save them to the device's internal storage. This process creates a digital copy of your precious CDs, seamlessly combining the high-quality audio of CDs with the flexible management of streamers. Users can enjoy the unique ritual of CD playback while transcending the limitations of physical media, turning valuable music resources into digital formats for convenient playback. Let music become a constant, beautiful companion in your life.

Dedicated Interface For Lossless Audio

The TT-1 features an audio-specific USB DAC interface, meticulously optimised to reduce transmission noise. With precisely calibrated transmission impedance, it ensures audio signals are transmitted without any loss at the physical transmission layer, delivering every detail of sound with exceptional fidelity.

Seamless Network Connectivity

If wired connection is inconvenient for you, the TT-1’s Wi-Fi 6 connectivity offers a simple and convenient solution. To ensure optimal sound quality and stable performance during high resolution audio streaming, it is recommended to give priority to use a wired connection.

Option For Linear Power

The TT-1 is specially designed with an DC power input to unlock its full performance potential with adding a linear power supply. When both external power and AC power are connected, the system prioritises the external power supply and disconnects the AC power, retaining only the ground connection. Additionally, the product is equipped with a power filter and multiple low-noise LDOs to power each circuit unit independently, ensuring pure and stable power delivery in every aspect.
