Innuos Zen mk3 NG and Zenith mk3 NG introduced at Munich

@skinzy Which Innuos streamer are you using now? How have you enjoyed the Phoenix USB? I’m looking to add the Phoenix to my Zen mk3, but wondering how much improvement I will experience. I also have an excellent clock in my Denafrips Terminator 2, so again wondering what the benefits will be by adding the Phoenix. Appreciate any insights you can offer. Thanks.

I am using the Zenith mk3 with their phoenix.  I think it depends on your DAC quality.  With the excellent DT 2 I think differences would be subtle.  I’m also very curious how much improvement the zenith ng will sound over my current gear.  I will post once it arrives.

With the Terminator (or T+) or any other DAC with I2S input it would seem that that I2S module out of the new Innuos models would be preferred.  What is confusing to me and what’s unclear in their announcement of the NG products is whether the models with I2S will also be equipped with Phoenix Lite or the Lite will only be compatible with the USB module.  Anyone know?

I think the answer is yes.
