INNUOS LAUNCHES STREAM SERIES MUSIC STREAMERS AND SERVERS

Innuos Stream Series and Sense 3.3 debut at Axpona, Shanghai, and Kaohsiung Audio Shows.

Innuos has introduced its new Stream Series, unveiling two HiFi music streamers and servers—Innuos Stream1 and Innuos Stream3—at AXPONA in Chicago, the Shanghai International Audio&Video Show, and the Kaohsiung Hi-End Audio Show.

The launch marks a significant shift in Innuos’ digital audio lineup, replacing the ZEN Mk3 Series, which has now been discontinued but remains supported.

INNUOS STREAM1: COMPACT DESIGN WITH EXPANDABLE PERFORMANCE

The Innuos Stream1 is positioned as an entry-level HiFi music streamer and server but includes features aimed at serious music lovers. Its compact, half-width form houses a dedicated CX regulator for clean power delivery to the output module, enhancing sound quality. The Stream1 is upgradeable via the optional LPS1 linear power supply, which comes in a matching chassis. Users can start with built-in USB audio outputs or select from optional output modules, including Standard DAC, Performance DAC, PhoenixUSB, or SPDIF boards.

INNUOS STREAM3: HIGH-END STREAMING WITH FLEXIBLE OUTPUTS

At the top end of the new range, the Innuos Stream3 is aimed at those seeking reference-grade audio performance. It features a 10mm thick CNC-machined aluminium chassis for vibration control and shielding, along with a high-end ARC6-CX linear power supply and Mundorf capacitors developed with input from Dr Sean Jacobs. For audiophiles seeking integrated DAC functionality, the optional PhoenixDAC output module offers dual-mono RCA and XLR outputs, OCXO and FEMTO clocks, and a dedicated analogue regulation stage. Output options mirror those of Stream1, with additional modules including PhoenixI2S.

INNUOS SENSE 3.3 BETA INTRODUCES SPOTIFY CONNECT AND SMARTQ

In parallel with the hardware, Innuos has released the Sense 3.3 beta version of its in-house music management app. New features include Spotify Connect integration, Qobuz Connect support (currently for Qobuz beta users), and a SmartQ function that continues playback when a playlist ends. A new Presets widget also allows quick access to favourite playlists, mixes, and radio stations, improving ease of use.

INNUOS STREAM SERIES DEMOED WORLDWIDE

To demonstrate the Stream Series and Sense 3.3, Innuos has created dedicated listening rooms at the three launch events. At AXPONA, Innuos partnered with reference-level amplification and loudspeaker systems in rooms 1408 and 1410 of the Renaissance Schaumburg Hotel. In Shanghai, Innuos featured its setup at the Jinjiang Hotel, with support from its APAC Sales Manager. In Taiwan, Taifu Audio showcased the range at the Kaohsiung Grand Hotel.
