    SmartQ

    No, it’s just you and another here complaining. Why should all those ppl who are happy with the status quo be made to have to opt in?

    SmartQ

    For users that are opposed to “opt in” settings I recommend you start a new feature request here : https://feedback.innuos.com and let the collective user base vote it up or not.

    STREAM Series Megapost

    Sorry, I badly worded my question - I understand that if you want a module changed or installed the unit has to go back to the dealer - I was wondering if they had mentioned whether it was a case of ‘not a problem, when it arrives we can install while you wait” or is it “drop it off and we will...

    SmartQ

    Hi Dan, @DanCollier Today, I just used Qobuz to pull up an album and immediately it is doing the 30sec thing. I’ll leave the system on, as it is until you get back to me. Cheers. Frank.

    STREAM Series Megapost

    Congratulations on your choice. The dealer does the module install when you have decided? Have they said how long it takes, eg is it just bring the unit back and we install while you wait?

    STREAM Series Megapost

    Thank you Stephen for a welcome clarification of the new model line-up, what’s on offer and why. Big job to get that down in digital print, congrats. I noticed the comment about faster Ethernet ports using faster switches - can you comment on what Innuos perceive as the gain to sound...

    Zenith Mk3 one channel low by 3 dB

    Stephen, For people who have purchased 2nd hand does a reset to factory defaults also reset all the options within LMS or are they separate? It seems to me that if one did purchase a 2nd hand unit this might be the 1st thing to do??

    Zenith Mk3 one channel low by 3 dB

    I’d be very surprised if the Innuos unit was changing the data values on the USB stream. You don’t say what your dac or preamp are but I’d be looking harder at those components. As far as I can ascertain the Sonus Connect isn’t USB compatible so the comparison isn’t apples-to-apples ? In...

    SmartQ

    When I’ve used it I put it 100% to the internet. You say “last tracks” , can you say how many of the tracks in the queue are used for the new compilation of tracks? I’ll play some more over the coming week. Cheers.

    I’m Hi Dan, thank you for the heads up and if it occurs again I’ll contact you here. A remote session would be easy to facilitate.

    Stay tuned for more! New series of music streamer/servers

    Yes, but they are not very well reported in reviews (mostly off-the-shelf dac chips), I haven’t read anything that says something like “the buyer should really experience the Innuos in-house dac module” or similar. Or, Innuos’s line of inbuilt dacs are far better / or this holds its own against...

    Mk3 & Next-Gen: what's the difference?

    No/Yes. The optical device being talked about is a DVD/CD read/write device that is used to copy digital files from a CD to the internal storage of the unit. If you copy (RIP) the digital data without error from a CD and then play that copied file through the Stream and into a standalone DAC...

    Innuos should stay with Steamers and Servers. It’s what they know. Building a DAC from scratch is throwing good money away, unless they bring in someone with great credentials.

    Mk3 & Next-Gen: what's the difference?

    Innuos could market something like the Matrix X-SPDIF 2 unit or Statement (original or NG) owners could purchase that. Statement NG is according to Innuos still above ZenithNG in the performance stakes, it’s just not as configurable. Perhaps a new version is in the pipeline? PS Audio...

    Zenith Mk3 strange behaviour

    I agree and have also previously asked for an explanation of how SmartQ algorithm chooses “similar” music, as like you have found the results to me are not necessarily similar at all. Not a criticism but I would like to know how to “steer” the algorithm, or for example how many tracks in a...
