Triple-Linear Power Supply
Inspired by the high-end power supply engineering of the SE, the ZENith Mk3 benefits from new premium Mundorf capacitors with ultra-low noise regulators and a medical-grade mains filter to provide even greater audio clarity.

Custom Motherboard
Innuos' own custom-made motherboard is completely reworked for optimized audio performance. Sources of EMI have been removed and internal clocks optimized, resulting in a “blacker” music background and enhanced realism.

Ultra-low Noise Streamer Output
Dual-ethernet ports with isolation transformers provide an ultra-low noise network connection for your streamer, removing noise from the path and improving sound quality on all network audio.

Anti-vibration and EMI Treatment
New asymmetrical isolation feet derived from the ZENith SE plus added treatment to the chassis help to combat harmful vibration that affects a clean audio signal, with even greater treatment now applied to the SSD.

In-Memory Playback
With 4GB dedicated memory, the ZENith loads music directly to memory for playback so that it doesn’t need to engage the SSD during playback, improving sound quality.
