Hi Guillaume,

That can be arranged. We'd start with a Zenith first as we currently have our demo SEs on shows and other reviews.
I'm currently in Lyon for the HifiLink Audio Show for this weekend. PM me and we can discuss the details.

P.S. If any member is around Lyon this weekend, come and say hi. Were the ones with Innuos shirts :-)

PM sent!  Smile

I am presently auditioning a Zenith II with my D250 pro CI. I am just using a simple decent USB cable and it sounds great. Devialet claims that the core board improved significantly the USB input seem to be true. I even wonder if AES would be still the best input option.
My dealer mentioned that he preferred sound wise an ethernet connection but I have not figured out how that is possible with the CI installed.

P.S. I am also curious about the SE version but I guess it is sold out by now.

Just a quick note to say the SE is still available but we are now in the last 10 units. Delivery for these units is now scheduled for end of February/March. Some of our dealers will have a couple of units in stock in February so it may be possible to get one from them at that time.

I’ve just added a Zenith MK II running Roon to my system (replacing an iMAC) as the source, now I need a decent USB cable.

I’m interested in Innuos/Dev owner experiences/suggestions, not the usual bits and bytes discussion Tongue

Of course if anyone is using Ethernet direct to Dev that would be interesting as well.

thanks

I am using a Zenith II but without Roon. Roon makes navigation easier but it sounded better without it (using iPeng). I am using an Inakustic Reference USB cable. It is well balanced, highly resolving not euphonically warm nor HiFi-ish bright.
I am also curious about a direct ethernet (streamer on the Zenith) connection but I have not figured out how (as I am presently busy with ripping CDs).

I going to try Shunyata Venom USB first (thanks Guillaume). Should have time today to investigate Ethernet direct.
