What is actually the difference between the Zenith Mk II and SE? going through the specs on innuOS website the only difference i see is the weight, 9 kg vs 11 kg respectively !

what am I missing?

@K4680 - Good work posting the picture! This looks like it could be a very interesting product, simple, convenient, with potentially very good sound quality . If it improves on the previous model it could prove to be amongst the best. I also suspect that it will be very expensive.

Some more details per this link:

I note that Innuos have released a limited edition, top of the range, state of the art, only 100 will be made model. Then, as soon as these are all sold, they announce a new even more state of the art model. Original buyers of the Od'A might recall something similar.....

Innuos must follow what is written on Computer audiophile forum as this might be the "wet dream" of many of the tweakers that hang out there Big Grin

Dual box, eight seperate PSU rails for each critical component, custom made motherboard, seperate USB board and seperate OCXO clock board.

That looks very tempting indeed. It is the neat execution I was looking for and judging by the previous reviews of Innuos Zenith one can only imagine that this would be couple steps up.

Any idea on relase date and price?

Ha! I was actually just thinking that!  Dodgy 

Cynicism aside I agree it looks like a very interesting product.

I dont think that will be enough, the SE model was €5699 and other brands is around €11000 for their top model.

Non the less the Innuos looks to be the most thought through model of them all with the 8 rail PSU, OCXO clockboard and dedicated USB board.


RE: Innuos Zenith ripper/streamer - roestano - 17-Apr-2018

As I'm also looking into upgrading my Mac mini as a core for Roon, I stumbled into Euphony.
Christiaan has a great blog where he also tested Devialet and other high end gear. http://www.hifi-advice.com/blog/review/euphony-buggyzotac/
In this review he states that Euphony Buggyzotac is comparable with the Aurender N10 at 1/3 of the price.
Great thing about Euphony is that you can order the ssd drive only so you can upgrade your computer or media player with their software.
Has anyone an opinion or experience on Euphony?

Buggy Zotac. Bet Devialet wished they’d pocketed that name for the CI board.

I don’t know anything about it but a quick google took me to this comment which I found pretty amusing after seeing their airflow diagram.
“Pretty sure no engineer has touched this if they think the feet help dissipate heat.”
