The new Zen series is the result of 2 years intensive research and development. Focused on taking digital sound quality to new heights whilst providing an intuitive interface anyone can use, not just computer wizards. This can only be achieved through a unique combination of hardware and software working together as one
Most music servers require a computer to manage the music library. Innuos are now taking the user experience to the next level, and as a result innuOS has been created. This new OS enables the server and ripper capabilities, including album cover and data editing to be fully managed and controlled by only using a smartphone or a tablet.
Sound quality is only as good as its source, and as such the music server has a crucial role in the overall audible quality of any system. Innuos took a fresh approach in creating their new Zen and Zenith models by adopting a design philosophy that focuses on producing the minimum amount of noise possible, instead of focusing on filtering noise afterwards. Nature provides us with a perfect example: A polluted water stream can be cleaned, but will never be as pure as if it was never polluted in the first place.
ZENith
Ideal for audiophiles who want to enjoy music as pure as it can get through their high end systems.
The flagship model, combining features not seen before in a music server.
The Zenith takes the Zen’s ability to reduce power noise on the outputs to the next level by offering a ground-breaking Triple-Linear design, which provides separate power to different parts of the system.
Available with either a 1TB (Std) or 2TB (XL) SSD, which also plays an important role in reducing power as well as mechanical noise.
The New ZEN Mk. II Series
Made for music lovers through the perfect symbiosis of easy to use software running on a highly optimised hardware platform.
my.innuos.com network discovery
No more figuring out IP addresses to access systems. Just go to my.innuos.com on your tablet or smartphone to list all Innuos devices on the network, select which one you want and you’re taken directly to the intelligent homepage.
Intelligent homepage
Tells you what’s happening with your system at any given moment, so you don’t need to guess nor to navigate through the menus to get there. For example, if a CD is being ripped when you start the user interface, it will take you to the ripping status screen.
Music Library Management On Tablet & Smart Phone
innuOS enables complete computer-free operation for managing CD ripping, editing album data & cover art plus unknown albums.
Edit Album Data and Cover Art
Browse or search your library, select the album you want to update and just start editing - couldn’t be easier.
Auto-import existing digital library
Music files (FLAC, DSD, Apple Lossless, WAV, MP3 and AIFF) just need to be moved to a folder in the Zen and it will automatically organise the library by artist, album and quality (compressed, CD-quality or Hi-Res).
Automatic backup to USB drive or NAS
Backup can be set-up to start automatically, based on library growth (i.e. every time 50 CDs are added). Easily check Information on last successful backup, as well as last backup status.
Automatic music library rescan
After music is added to your library it automatically rescans the library and updates the integrated music player as well as connected systems such as Sonos or UPnP streamers.
Intelligent CD Ripper
innuOS automatically obtains album data, including artists, composers, track names and cover art from multiple online databases, as well as performing a bit-perfect rip of your CD to FLAC with zero compression.
Automatic and Assisted
mode Automatic mode: for those who have more main stream music collections. Insert the CD, wait 3-5 min and the CD will pop-out. Assisted mode: for Classical and World music lovers. Confirm or edit album data and cover before ripping each CD.
Offline CD ripping
CD will rip without internet connection. When connected, data will be automatically obtained with a simple click.
Album Quarantine
Unidentified albums during automatic ripping are stored in the Quarantine area where track samples can be listened to and album data & cover can be edited.
Audiophile Design
Stealth design case with precision CNC machined aluminium front holds our custom designed hardware optimised for either low power operation (Zen Mini) or ultra-low noise electronics (Zen and Zenith). All models are completely fanless so you can enjoy your music without distractions.
Third Party Integration
Integrates a UPnP server and can be used like a NAS, allowing out of the box integration with multiple systems: · Wireless multi-room, such as sonos, naim Mu-so, denon HeOs, amongst others · Music streamers such as naim, linn, auralic and many others · Hi-Fi systems such as DACs, Digital Amplifiers, active speakers and others
Hi-Fi Music Player
Play your stored music, Internet Radio and Online Services such as Spotify*, Tidal* or BBC iPlayer Radio with the best sound quality by connecting to a device with a USB audio input such as a DAC. Supports up to 32bit/384KHz, DSD256 and MQA, when connecting to compatible DACs.
