Innuos ZENmini Mk3 Music Server

Description

ZENmini Mk3

With its compact footprint, low-power efficiency, quiet operation and range of connectivity, the ZENmini Mk3 is a convenient and discreet music server for all your Digital Audio needs – from CD ripping to purchased downloads, Internet Radio to Spotify Connect.

ZENmini offers more than just casual usage. Floating optical and storage drives paired with a custom motherboard and premium components offer far greater musical performance than conventional computers and NAS drives.

Featuring additional Optical and Coaxial digital outputs as well has a high-resolution 24bit/192KHz Digital to Analog Converter (DAC). The perfect CD player replacement, ZENmini allows you to connect directly to all your favourite devices such as soundbars, AV Receivers or integrated amplifiers the easy way.

Using the exclusive innuOS operating system, the ZENmini server is configured and optimised from the ground up for the perfect balance of performance and simplicity. Control your library from the comfort of your tablet or smartphone – no computer required.

New ZENmini S

The ZENmini S takes one of Innuos’s most popular music servers and replaces the hard drive with a quiet, lightning-quick Solid-State Drive (SSD). ZENmini S upgrades the RAM from 4GB to 8GB for additional performance benefits when searching for music or copying files. It even has a power-loss protection protection circuit so if you lose your power, you don’t lose your music.

Owners of the original ZENmini Mk2 and Mk3 will be able to upgrade to ZENmini S in early 2023.
