Pure linear power.
The secret to any great sounding audio component is a stable and absolutely noise-free power supply. Nativ Pulse features a highly sophisticated linear circuit design with dedicated supplies for the analog and digital sections, ultra-low noise linear regulators, custom-built toroidal transformer and a state-of-the-art AC power line filter to get the maximum performance out of your Nativ DAC.
Analog is key.
Nativ Pulse is separated into dedicated power supplies for the audio stages and the digital circuits. To protect the sensitive analog stages we use best-in-class regulators that minimize ripple and eliminate jitter. With more than 50,000 μ-Farad of storage capacitance Nativ Pulse delivers virtually unlimited impulse current and an excellent transient and bass response, allowing Nativ Wave to go from absolute silence to explosive dynamics in the blink of an eye.
It’s all about the timing.
The ultra-precise clock generator on Nativ Wave is an engineering marvel and is –like all clocks– highly susceptible to noise. Nativ Pulse employs a dedicated supply to power the sensitive digital clocking circuits on the DAC modules, and a dedicated linear regulator for the clock generator to virtually eliminate jitter. A total of 25 separate low- noise linear regulators minimize noise and interference between all circuits.
Even digital hates noise.
A separate high-end Switching Mode Power Supply (SMPS) delivers stable power to non-audio components, featuring a high efficiency rating and ripple noise below 50mVp-p at full load (5A).
Ultra-low-low-low noise.
Made exclusively for Nativ by Nuvotem Talema® this exceptional multi-rail toroidal transformer provides clean and stable power and keeps noise contamination to a minimum. It uses a high-mass, low-profile, low magnetic field design and is electrostatically shielded to suppress power line disturbances.

Think outside the box.
We put Nativ Pulse in a separate enclosure for good reasons. The anti-magnetic chassis protects the sensitive internal components from resonance and microphonic vibration and isolates the sensitive audio electronics in Nativ Wave from electromagnetic and mechanical interference. It also eliminates the negative effects that thermal radiation can have over the long term.
