    New to Innuos - Issues With Esoteric N05-XD

    @ihmeyers It is unfortunate you are having these issues but as you say hopefully the tech support session will come up with a solution. Please report back here the outcome as it might help a future user, and, I’m also curious. Good luck.

    Curious: most DACs use asynchronous USB (and other asynchronous inputs) which strip the timing/clock data from the incoming stream and reclock to the DACs internal clock. How much more bandwidth do we need for audio, we are not likely to run out of transfer capacity.

    New to Innuos - Issues With Esoteric N05-XD

    InnuOS firmware is Linux based (Logitech Media Server) as you say. Linux has all the drivers required loaded in the kernel so the receiving unit doesn’t require a separate driver. From your description you are using the Zenith as a streamer/server (bypassing the Lumin based streamer built-in to...

    Have you tried using the Zenith as an endpoint rather than a streamer?

    Are you disappointed in the Esoteric’s function as a streamer/dac?

    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?

    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.

    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...

    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.

    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?

    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...

    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.
