Upgrade from Innuos Zen Mini Mkiii to Innuos Pulse


I'm thinking of upgrading my Zen Mini to the Pulse.

Has anyone made the same move/upgrade, and was there a significant improvement. (I have the Innuos LPSU powering the Zen Mini)

I'm using the Sense App; I have used my Zen Mini as a Roon Core on and off, but always find myself going back to the Sense App, despite the various features Roon provides. I just prefer Sense; I don't think there's a lot in it SQ-wise, for me, Sense feels a little more natural.

Anyway, this isn't about Roon ๐Ÿ˜Š, I mention it as i'd obviously be losing the Roon Core option with the Pulse, but it isn't a problem. (Actually, if I don't sell the Zen Mini, I maybe able to use it as Roon Core but connected on my home network away from my system, I think?).

So to the point, I would be grateful to hear from anyone who has made the same move/upgrade mentioned ๐Ÿ‘

Thanks guys ๐Ÿ˜Š

Have you finally upgraded? I do have the ZenMini mkIII and I was contemplating the same. Thanks.

Hi @chemarcelo no I never did in the end; I wanted to try tubes (amp) and bought the Heaven11 Billie Mkii integrated and havenโ€™t felt the urge/need to change anything else since. Lovely piece of kit by the way

I think the Pulse makes more sense for most users compared to the Zen line. A few years ago I tried a bunch of options and ended up with a Zenith MKIII. But that is because I wanted something that would hold my entire library. I have the 8TB version and I don't really use Tidal type streaming so the Zenith works for me. If someone mainly does streaming then the Pulse is probably just as good sounding for way less money.ย
