Thanks Niall. So a Phoenix I2S board from a Pulsar can be fitted into a STREAM3, then.

Yes, it is the identical board

Prices went to dealers yesterday so you will now begin to see online listings for the new products with their prices gradually appearing - some are already up now.
In Euros, Stream1 starts at €2250 and Stream3 starts at €5800 (storage and modules, if needed, would be added to this).
LPS1 will be €1150 but we will be carrying on the 'bundle' scheme like we used to have with the ZENmini and LPSU, so becomes €920 if bought with Stream1.

Dealers here in Belgium saying they are waiting for info from the Innuos. No pricing, no expected delivery info so far.

Dealers have been sent the product details and the retail prices. They will be receiving more information very, very soon!

Thanks Niall, hope sooner than later as being a big kid I do not have much patience:

When will Stream1 and 3 go on sale?

Much like myself

Pre-orders from dealers will open up first, hopefully in the next week or so. Then production will follow, and it will likely all come in stages: STREAM1 first in about 3-4 weeks, followed by STREAM3 shortly after that. Some of the DAC boards will take a little longer, but we will be communicating timeline updates as and when we can.

Digital out put boards. Can more than one board be installed ie USB and SPDF.
Will the new DAC boards have digital inputs to support external devises.
Obrigado.

Hi Matco, great question!

Only one board at a time can be installed. Since the vast majority of users will only need one, it made sense to optimise the design for maximum performance from the one board that suits the system it will be used with.

Importantly, boards can be swapped out for another quite easily at a dealer if, for example, there is a change in the system that would benefit from a different interface, or if the time has come for an upgrade. It's very modular and highly adaptable, with the focus being on audio performance.

There are no digital or analogue inputs available.

difference of standard dac board and perfomance dac board for stream 1 ?
is it possible to install own ssd without loosing the warranty (stream 1)?

The STREAM1 and STREAM3, along with the ZEN and ZENith Next-Gen models, all have a user-accessible bay to install your own SSD. It's an easy process. We have instructions for the Next-Gen models in the knowledge base, and I am sure the process will be pretty much identical for the STREAM1 and STREAM3.

Here are the specs for the two DACs:
Standard DAC Board

• Adds RCA analogue output, plus optical and coaxial SPDIF outputs.
• Supports PCM up to 24-bit/192kHz.

Performance DAC Board

• Features the latest AKM DAC chip and high-quality TCXO clocks.
• Supports PCM up to 32-bit/768kHz and Native DSD up to DSD512.
• Includes independent power supplies for digital and analogue stages.
• Features high-quality gold-plated RCA connectors.

Hi Niall,
How would customers be able to demo these boards? The best connection would be dependent on the customer's DAC, I guess. So would the dealer be able to loan a unit with a couple of add-in boards for a home dem? Just curious to know how you think this will work!

We are working on that at the moment, the aim is for customers to be able to demo different models and different configurations ...more to follow!

Niall, what storage options would the be for Stream1? I see 1TB, 2TB and 4TB mentioned but on some Belgian websites it starts with

Stream3 is available both silver and black. Stream1 is black only. Will Stream1 be also available in silver at a later date?

The options we will offer pre-fitted will be 2TB or 4TB, but you are welcome to order without storage and fit any M2 SSD size of your choice.
Edit: 1TB removed.

There are no plans for this currently.
