Innuos is the name for High Fidelity Digital Servers and Streamers.
Awarded and Applauded and when you Experience it you will understand Why! Now We Introduce to you The NEXT GEN ZEN & ZENITH
New Features
Features and Functionality You Will Love,,,
​
01
New
Innuos Precise Audio Mainboard – An all-new custom server-grade mainboard, tuned for low processor latency, power noise, and optimal clock frequencies;
further improved by enhanced power regulators and solid capacitors.
03
New
Multicore Processing – Intel™ Core i Embedded processors combine excellent response times while keep power consumption and temperatures low for the
best audio quality. Enhanced with Innuos AudioCore, allocating separate physical cores dedicated only to audio processes and 16GB of meticulously selected
industrial-grade DDR4 RAM, it’s the perfect combination of responsiveness and audio performance.
02
New
Innuos NGaN PSU – New cutting-edge Gallium Nitride power regulation stage to enhance our existing RECAP2 and ARC6 linear power modules with a tuned
switching frequency offering much lower impedance and thermal output, enclosed in an EMI-shielded chamber.
04
New
Expandable Storage Management System (XSM) – XSM creates a seamless and unified storage pool without the audio performance impact of a RAID solution.
Storage is based exclusively on M.2 NVMe boards with direct CPU connection for the lowest latency when reading files to RAM. An internal slot for up to 8TB is
complemented by a cable-free external expansion slot for up to 16TB of total storage.
New Features
For today and into the future.
05
New
Dedicated OS SSD - The Sense 3 Operating System resides on a custom industrial-grade ultra-low noise SSD module with power loss protection directly
attached to the PreciseAudio board and powered independently, resulting in both audio benefits and increasing system resiliency.
07
New
Sense 3 – Unique benefits for the new ZEN NG and ZENith NG models through Sense 3, including new custom Real-Time Kernel, lowering latency even further
for the whole Operating System; AudioCore for audio processes allocated to dedicated physical cores and new CD-ripping via external USB drives with drive-head
alignment for accurate ripping.
06
New
Digital Output Modules – Upgradeable audio output slot for different modules such as USB, I2S, or AES/Coaxial/Optical SPDIF that can be upgraded upon
evolving system requirements.
08
New
Premium Chassis – Newly-designed 10mm thick CNC-machined bead-blasted and anodized aluminium chassis, containing new vibration-dampened toroidal
platform and with Chassis Ground port connection.
Features
The Next Generation of ZEN and ZENith servers and streamers draw upon the finest design concepts trickled down from the flagship STATEMENT whilst introducing our new electronics and software platform with innovations resulting of almost 3 years of intense Research and Development. Together, they offer the most dramatic step forward in sound realism and versatility we’ve ever done in 3 generations of ZEN Music Servers.
A new modular approach for storage and audio connectivity options creates a hugely versatile device; use just as a streamer with no on-board storage atall or have up to 16TB for local file libraries, whilst maximizing sonic output through your choice of optimal Digital Output Module.

Innuos Sense App
Innuos Music Servers allow connecting to different types of music systems. Depending on the type of connection used, you will need different apps in order to browse and play music on your Music Server. Generally, there are 4 main options:
Music Server connected directly to a Digital to Analog Converter (DAC);
Music Server connected to UPnP Streamer(s) via Ethernet network;
Music Server connected to Sonos Wireless Speakers;
Music Server as a Roon Core or Roon Bridge.
Now InnuOS Version 2.6+ allows you to play directly from a connected USB storage device plus much more.
