InnuOS Sense 2.6.0.

The improvement in sound quality is, at least for me, like an upgraded component. Innuos is really on top of their game.

@bluethinker, +1.

It’s like my entire system got upgraded.

I am so glad I haven’t bought anything new lately.

Cheers!

My initial enthusiasm has faded a bit. After a week or so of listening, I hear better resolution but I’m now aware of some “digital glare.” What had been a relaxed presentation now sounds a little forward and, I hate to say it, irritating.
 

It’s making me question my entire set-up! Do I need a new streamer? DAC? Or should I explore some products like the Network Acoustics Muon?
 

Anyone else have this experience after a week or so listening to the new Innuos 2.6 update?

You may experience digital clipping. Try and turn down the volume on the server and up on the dac by using the sense volume bar. Hopefully that helps.

@bluethinker,

I have not experienced what you have.

If you are using a pre-amp, try keeping the Sense app volume at 100%, and control the volume only with your preamp. Hope this helps.

@antigrunge2 @jon2020 - Thanks for the advice! I ended up turning up the volume to 100% on the Innuos ZENith and used the LTA preamp exclusively for volume. That seems to have made a difference… I don’t quite understand why, but it made a positive difference.
