Matrix Audio
Dedicated streaming transports
Matrix Audio, from Xi'an, made its first DAC in 2006. Its streaming transports have no DAC: they focus on getting music from the network to your DAC, or to active speakers with digital inputs, with as little noise and jitter as possible.

Network streamers without a DAC. The NT-1 adds a linear power supply, fibre networking and an external clock input.
