New Innuos Stream Players vs the Innuos ZENmini Mk3 — Hear the Difference: Saturday 21st March
We're putting two generations of Innuos head to head at our Norwich showroom on Saturday 21st March. The ZENmini Mk3 has been one of the most popular entry points into serious digital streaming — the new STREAM1 is its successor. We'll be running both on the same system, including their matching linear power supplies, so you can hear exactly what's changed.
Three one-hour sessions are available, running from 10am to 4pm. Places are limited — call us to book yours.
What We'll Be Comparing
Innuos ZENmini Mk3 with LPSU — Music Server, CD Ripper and Streamer
The Innuos ZENmini Mk3 is the entry-level all-in-one music server and streamer. It rips CDs, stores your library internally via SSD, and streams — all from a single compact box. Key features include a custom motherboard with dual Ethernet ports, onboard analogue, optical and coaxial digital outputs, an integrated DAC, and fanless operation. It supports Qobuz, TIDAL and Spotify, and works as both a Roon Core and Roon endpoint. We'll be running it alongside the matching LPSU linear power supply on the day.
Innuos STREAM1 with LPS1 — New Generation Streamer and Server
The Innuos STREAM1 is the newly launched successor to the ZENmini Mk3, and it represents a significant step forward. Built around a 13th Gen Intel Quad-Core processor with 8GB of industrial-grade DDR5 RAM, it delivers processing speeds more than twice as fast as its predecessor. At the heart of its audio performance is the CX Regulator, developed in collaboration with Dr Sean Jacobs, supplying independent, low-noise power directly to the output module stage.
Storage is handled via an M.2 NVMe SSD expansion bay in 1TB, 2TB or 4TB configurations. CD ripping is available via a USB optical drive using Innuos's own ripping engine. Streaming services include Qobuz, TIDAL, Deezer and Spotify Connect. Roon Core and endpoint functionality is included. We'll be running it with the matching LPS1 linear power supply on the day.
The System
Both units will be demonstrated through the same downstream components throughout the day: Cyrus 40 Series 40 Amp integrated amplifier with Cyrus 40 PSU power supply, Spendor A7.2 loudspeakers, and Chord Epic cabling throughout.
Bring Your Own CD
Bring a disc along and we'll rip it on the ZENmini Mk3 and play back through both units. Familiar music makes for a more useful comparison.
Special Trade-In Deals
We'll be offering enhanced trade-in deals exclusively for attendees on the day. If you're considering moving to a new Innuos source, this is a good time to do it. Speak to our team when you arrive for details.
