Innuos Zen MK3 tips and tricks

Thanks.  What difference do you hear between the normal and low settings?

I spent a good amount of time listening last night and one of the other improvements for me is the Sense app and connectivity compared to BluOs and my Node N130.  Even with a wired Ethernet connection the BluOs would drop the connection from time to time.  I could continue playing what was cued up but it would pop up saying it was unable to find a connection.  Using the same Ethernet cable the Sense app is lightning quick and I haven’t lost connection after hours of use.  Very happy so far and I haven’t even ripped any CDs yet.  It will keep me busy this winter.  Highly recommend if you’re looking for a streamer.  Thanks for all the comments. 

The Innuos has a large buffer. I used to have trouble because my internet tends to drop at times. You can literally unhook the ethernet cable during playback and it keeps playing. 

I need to do more listening with the two buffer settings. I'm breaking in my new dac, so there's that going on as well.  You should try both and see what you like in your system. 

Thanks.  I would be interested in your feedback about any difference with the settings.  I have A/B tested the 2 settings on a few well known tracks and don’t notice any significant difference so far.  

Initially, I felt that there was a bit of additional detail and clarity with the first few songs that I played (on low latency). After extended listening, I felt that the music had lost some fullness. Thinner, I guess.  Some upper frequencies were a bit too sharp for my preference. In my system. My dac, cables, etc. 

I did a lot of listening last night and it sounds great on normal. I've read that some people prefer low latency.
