Streamer/Server to replace Innuos Zenith

I am looking to replace my Innuos Zenith mkIII. After the long anticipated wait of a few years for their own software and it is still a mess for iOS users I have decided its time to move on. What do you all suggest for something like the Zenith but hopefully a step up in sound quality? I still have a Roon license so I am OK with using a Roon based product.
Thank you

I would keep your Innuos Zenith mk.3 and just use Roon for now instead of the Sense app. Give Innuos more time to work out the bugs with their new app.

I have the Innuos Zenith mk.3 and have no issue with the Sense app. The Zenith is a great streamer and the sound quality is better with using the Sense app compared to Roon.

Did you purchase another unit? Just curious what you decided on.

If you want simple and a DAC / Streamer then second on Lumin X-1.  I had one and it was outstanding and simple to use.

@verdantaudio,

A Nucleus as an upgrade for a Zenith Mk3? Are you antepodean or why is your world completely upside down? The Nucleus isn’t even in the same SQ ballpark.

I guess I was thinking about the Nucleus as an “upgrade” vs a device that isn’t working.  I will also admit I was thinking of the Zen, not the Zenith.  Fair point, I should have scrolled back up.
