INNUOS WORLD PREMIERE OF NEW ZEN NG AND ZENITH NG AT MUNICH

World premiere of the new Innuos ZEN NG and ZENith NG models featuring the new Sense 3, at High End Munich 2024.

Innuos unveils the new ZEN NG and ZENith NG music servers and streamers at High End Munich 2024.

INNUOS ZEN NG AND ZENITH NG

These new models are additions to the Innuos ZEN Series and benefit from unique features to be released on the new Sense 3. Visitors will be able to experience A/B Demonstrations, delve into the new Sense 3, and explore the wide product range offered by this digital HiFi specialist brand.

NEW ZEN SERIES MODELS NG INSPIRED

Drawing upon the finest trickled-down elements of STATEMENT NG whilst bringing several innovations, the new ZEN NG and ZENith NG extend the existing ZEN series with new higher-end NG versions, complementing thel Mk3 generation.

“The new ZEN NG and ZENith NG introduce our new electronics and software platform with innovations such as the PreciseAudio mainboard, NGaN regulation module and Sense 3. These are the result of almost 3 years of intense Research and Development, offering the most dramatic step forward in sound realism and versatility we’ve ever done in 3 generations of ZEN Music Servers. Come and have a listen, I’m confident you’ll find them a revelation” Nuno Vitorino, Innuos Co-founder and R&D Director

The PreciseAudio mainboard is extensively customised and tuned for low processor latency and minimizing operating power noise. It’s powered by the new Innuos NGaN regulation module, significantly reducing power supply impedance and heat inside the case while maintaining an ultra-low level of power noise. Both are the result of almost 3 years of Research and Development.

Other features include the new Expandable Storage Management System (XSM) supporting up to 16TB of seamless internal storage and upgradeable Digital Output Modules such as the PhoenixUSB Lite. Both ZEN NG and ZENith NG are enclosed in a high-precision 10mm thick CNC-machined aluminium chassis, bead-blasted and anodised in either silver or black.

INNUOS ZEN NG

The Innuos ZEN NG features an improved NGaN-regulated RECAP2 Power Supply, a processor with 4 physical + 4 virtual cores paired with 16GB of low-noise industrialgrade DDR4 RAM and a 3D TLC SSD for Sense 3. Recommended retail price for ZEN NG starts from € 9 500 | £ 9 000 | USD 12 000 | CAD 15 800.

INNUOS ZENITH NG

The Innuos ZENith NG further elevates audio and processing performance with NGaN-regulated ARC6 power supply with active rectification and over 130000uF of Mundorf capacitors, as well as an 8 physical core processor for AudioCore. This is complemented by the use of a pSLC SSD for Sense 3, ensuring ultra-low noise operation and extended durability. Recommended retail price for ZENith NG starts from €15 000 | £ 14 200 | USD 18 900 | CAD 25 000.

Following Innuos’ philosophy to provide upgrade paths whenever possible, the new ZEN NG is upgradeable to a ZENith NG.

The ZEN NG and ZENith NG models will be available in early Q3 this year.

INNUOS SENSE 3

To explore the most out of the new platform, Innuos has developed Sense 3, the next generation of innuOS. Sense 3 will be based on a custom Real-time OS Kernel for ultra-low latency and includes AudioCore technology to ensure audio-related processes are run without interruptions.

Sense 3 will further add TIDAL Connect, new music library and playlist management tools, support for external USB optical drives with drive-head alignment for accurate ripping, and UI improvements.

Sense 3 will be released together with the ZEN NG and ZENith NG and will be available as a software update to all ZEN Mk3 Series, PULSE series and STATEMENT.

INNUOS AT HIGH END MUNICH 2024

This year Innuos can be found in the Atrium 4.1 – F106.

Innuos setup for this show includes the Innuos PhoenixNET audiophile-grade network switch connected to a ZENith NG, which visitors will be able to compare, via A/B demos, to the ZENith Mk3. A Nagra HD DAC X paired with a Gryphon Commander pre-amplifier and Apex Stereo power amplifier will drive a pair of the newly released Kroma Irya speakers, also premiered at this show. Power conditioning will be handled by 2x STROMTANK S 2500 Quantum MK-II and Transparent cables will provide connections – all hosted inside an Artesania Exoteryc Pro Rack audio rack.

Beyond their dedicated exhibition areas, Innuos products will also be present in various partner rooms throughout the show.

The Innuos team, composed of 10 people, including Nuno Vitorino, R&D Director and co-founder, and Amélia Santos, CEO and co-founder, will be present throughout the show, eager to answer any questions, demonstrate the products, and discuss music listening needs.
