New 3D-Lab Nano Player Master

To go even further than the Nano Player Signature, 3D-Lab offers the Nano Player Master, available in Streamer or Streamer/DAC versions.

The Player Master features a dual chassis design with its own dedicated external power supply (not compatible with other Nano products) to prevent electromagnetic interference. It includes an internal 1TB MVMe SSD for file storage or CD ripping. It now offers wireless network connectivity with WPS automatic pairing. Inside, it boasts a return of a dedicated 32-bit/768kHz SRC circuit, a new fully symmetrical DAC with its own dedicated power supply, and exceptional digital volume control powered by LEEDH PROCESSING technology.

For its interface, 3D-Lab offers a choice of applications. 3D-Lab products are compatible with Roon, integrate Audirvana Core internally (eliminating the need for a separate computer), and support JPlay. It’s also possible to use Qobuz Connect, MConnect Player, and Bubble uPnP, for example.

In listening tests, and logically in line with what we’ve come to expect from 3D-Lab, the Master goes significantly further than the Signature; it’s a true revelation. We feel like we’re repeating ourselves with each new product from the brand, but the improvements are evident across the board: the level of detail, the wider, deeper, and noticeably more airy soundstage. The timbres are even more accurate and refined, and there’s much more “weight” to the notes. A real success…

Description:

Player Master: The culmination of Nano’s expertise

The Player Master adopts the architecture of the Nano Transport Master, this time enhanced with a digital-to-analog conversion section of exceptional quality.

Its dual chassis physically separates the power supply from the player to ensure complete isolation of the sensitive circuits and eliminate any electromagnetic interference that could compromise the purity of the conversion.

The onboard processor offers significantly greater computing power than previous generations. It processes even the most demanding audio streams in real time, optimizing each step of the playback and conversion process for absolutely precise reproduction.

The internal storage system includes a 1TB NVMe drive, guaranteeing instant access times and ample capacity, even for the largest music libraries.

The Wi-Fi connection benefits from WPS automatic pairing, making network setup and configuration quick and easy.

The separate power supply, based on Nano Power technology specifically developed for this model, ensures exceptional electrical stability and complete immunity to electromagnetic interference.

At the heart of the device, a 32–768 kHz SRC reformats all digital signals to this exceptional sampling rate before conversion. This process drastically reduces jitter and guarantees unparalleled timing accuracy.

The electronics feature a fully symmetrical topology, ensuring optimal noise rejection and exceptional dynamics.

The DAC section, with its own power supply and dedicated architecture, guarantees exemplary conversion purity.

Finally, the analog outputs offer both balanced and unbalanced connectors, allowing for seamless integration into any type of system while preserving the integrity of the converted signal.

Master Fidelity, Nadac D.

AtelierAudio — Thu, 29 May 2025 08:00:45 +0000

Designed and made in Canada, a Native True 1-bit technology…

Revolutionary 1–bit technology, enhanced clocking and hybrid oven controlled power supply added to the bestUSB connection and MF Super Isolation Unit puts NADAC–D ahead of the game

L’Atelier Audio is the exclusive reseller for Quebec of the Master Fidelity products. We are very pleased to present these unique Audio DAC, Clock and pre-amplifier… you are welcome to listen to the Nadac D in our show room.

A TRUE TECHNOLOGY BREAKTHROUGH

NADAC-D offers True 1-bit decoding for the first time. Mainstream HiFi decoders on the market generally use two types of technologies: the first is to directly use commercially available DAC ICs, which are audio digital-to-analog converter chips, such as AKM, ESS, and CS products. The second is to use an FPGA/CPLD circuit with discrete components, which is an FPGA/CPLD based Discrete DAC.

The technical specifications of the commercially available AKM/ESS/CS products are good, but their integrated circuit designs are typically treated as “industrial products” that cannot achieve the ultimate performance due to cost and semiconductor technology limitations. There will always be a balance of performance and cost and it is understandable that the end product has to appeal to a wide audience.

On the other hand, using the FPGA/CPLD discrete component scheme can often use powerful high-density logic chips regardless of cost. However, when it comes to converting into analog signals, some low-density but high-performance logic circuits suitable for audio applications are required. The problem is that companies that make these types of ICs will not develop “discrete chips” specifically for the HiFi industry, ending up with the same limitations as the previous solution.

The NADAC-D, Native Sound True 1-bit DAC overcomes this limitation. First, we chose a True 1-bit solution, but this solution is highly dependent on hardware performance, such as clock quality, power supply quality, and high-quality components that match it. Therefore, NADAC-D directly chose to have professional IC manufacturers customize Audiophile Grade components, thus realizing an Advanced ASIC based Discrete DAC.

NETWORK ACOUSTICS.

The new Eno2 Ethernet filter…

You are welcome to listen to the Eno2 filter in our show room.

Description

Network Acoustics started up when most serious audiophiles saw streaming as little more than just a tool for discovering new music. With the introduction of the original eno Ethernet Filter, they demonstrated that by removing network noise from the Ethernet signal and keeping it out of the digital playback chain, streaming could sound as natural and magical as high-end vinyl and CD sources.

In the five years since the original eno’s launch, Network Acoustics has pursued a relentless program of continuous research, development, and innovation with an aim to improve noise reduction even further resulting in enhanced sound quality that consistently exceeds customer’s expectations.

Network Acoustics’ founders, Rich and Rob, aimed to create a top-performing, affordable streaming system with the original eno, making high quality sound accessible to a broad audience. The eno² Steaming System stays true to these values, while improving on the original in every way.
