Innuos ZENith "STATEMENT"

[matthias]

There is only one server I would like to compare the Statement to, the Taiko Audio SGM Extreme.

I hope I can listen to both at HIGH END 2019 in Munich.

Have a listen to the Pink Faun 2.16x.  Jord says they'll be there in Munich.

 

So far PF is not on the list of exhibitors in Munich.

If anyone is planning to visit RMAF I'll be happy to demo it personally. 

 

Please, can you comment on your set-up with Phoenix at X-Fi Show in the Netherlands.

Thanks.

According to Innuos HP Innuos will be at X-FI Show but Innuos has disappeared from the exhibitor list.

 

Please, can you shed some light on this?

 

Thanks

One omission I must mention, i’ve never tried the Statement without the AQVox and given that the Statement reclocks incoming ethernet, its not totally clear that the AQVox is actually needed, good as its sounds.  I really must try a direct connection 

 

Hi @Blackmorec,

 

it would be really nice if you can try it and share your impressions.

 

Thanks

In regards to reclocking, you are referring to the tx-usbultra used with your SE, correct?

 

"I implemented a Zenith SE which sounded pretty damned good, even with a cheap Chord C USB cable. Implementing a TX-USBUltra + sPS-500 was always a downgrade and even just plugging in the TX’s standard wall wart PS robbed the system of some of its magic."

The Next Gen upgrade to the Statement is phenomenal. Mine is still running in but there’s already tons of that magic ingredient that make you feel like you’re in the venue with the musicians,  

 

BTW, did you manage to listen to the new PULSAR which also has an ARC6 PS?

Thx

No I haven’t heard the Pulsar.

 

I have got the impression that the PULSAR will be delayed. Even on the Dutch Audio Event this weekend there will be only comparisons between PULSEmini and PULSE.

As for the PULSAR I have a doubt. Assuming you already are a ZENith owner, does make sense adding the PULSAR acting as streamer to it (then acting as server only)?

 

The Pulsar makes perfectly sense for people like me who do not play local files (and do not own a Zenith)) but want the best SQ from streaming services. I do not think that the Pulsar makes sense for people who have a next-gen Statement.

@Blackmorec

Great post :-)

I am just curious,, what is your percentage listening to streaming services (including Radio Swiss) in comparison to local files?

Thank you

@Blackmorec

A second question if you may allow:

 

Do you still use your modified TPLink RE650 bridge with the NG Statement or did you found something superior?

Thanks again.
