Looks very interesting

Is this the replacement for the Statement ?
Or do Innuos have another new model / lineup?
Nazaré
Statement NG
Zenith NG / Zen NG
Streamer 1 / 3
…….
All previous models?

Definitely above the Statement but whether the Statement stays, who knows? It looks expensive.
I also wonder whether you need all three boxes or can you buy separately. It’s interesting to note that the top box has a normal IEC into it so it must have an onboard power supply (unlike the Statement) I love this stuff even though I probably can’t afford it.
It looks like the middle box is a SFP converter? I currently use SFP into my Linn Klimax DSM, so I find this very interesting.

Not that most of us can afford this but I wonder; is the blue led controllable like on the Zenith or is it static? To me it looks awfully bright and maybe even obnoxious…

I would be interested in the middle box. Truly this will be out of my price range. But it looks amazing and I am sure also sound great.

 

[markb]

I’m also very interested in the bottom box. I wonder whether it’s a hi-end network switch/router?

This is exactly what I was looking for to go in my 2nd system...

Actually the default colour would likely be a plain white - the reason it is sideways-projecting is that it is actually a visual homage to the Nazare lighthouse beaming out to sea! So, i believe it will be a 'chameleon' type and consequently i think blue makes it look more bright/pronounced that it normally is or would be if just white in colour.

Ah, so there was actually an idea behind the design; couldn't guess and don't know the lighthouse I'm afraid.
Sadly I don't think I get to see this setup in person as I don't know a dealer currently showing the statement.

Not that I can afford any of the current listed prices I spotted; but will there be a 19" less high (end) dac for accompanying my zenith mk3?
My cabinet only supports small'ish components and my somewhat neurotic mind doesn't like anything that isn't 19"...

Nothing like that planned at the moment, we are stepping more into the world of DACs but are going for the modular approach that can directly work off our newer devices, rather than full standalone DACs. For that reason, if you have a ZENith Mk3 then the answer to that would be to maybe trade it in against something like a newer Stream3 with the PerformanceDAC already fitted inside.

A great article with a bit more detail about Innuos HQ andf the Nazaré launch event!

Innuos Nazaré Launched in Portugal

Audio: Listen to this article. I don’t remember the last time I traveled 4,300 miles with absolutely no idea what I would see when I arrived. I made the decision to go based solely on the reputation of the company and the people involved. That’s what this and every industry is all about. Good peo...

Interesting presentation, looking forward to hearing it, Innuos are certainly on a mission and have a clear direction mapped out. Will Innuos attract new customers and maintain it's existing customer base, I guess time will tell. Somebody should check out the sub titles before going public, they were pretty poor.

On which video? It might just be close-caption ones generated by YouTube which can indeed be a bit spotty

 

[Malc.]

It was on YouTube and was very poor.

Those are auto-generated by YouTube which analyses the sound, so not much we can do there. We are not the owners of the video either, so unfortuantely cannot upload or add specific subtitles in this case!
