Innuos Zenith SE Mk II

This is the "SE" version and was limited to a production run of only 100 units.  This coveted model sold out very quickly earlier this year and it is unlikely you will find one on the used market any time soon so consider this an opportunity to own one of the finest music servers available today at any price.  According to John Darko:  "I find myself haunted by my memory of its sound.  It was like no other digital source I had heard to date: richer and smoother."

This music server is among the most user-friendly music servers available today and is housed in an attractive, minimally-resonant, single chassis with very effective integrated anti-vibration footers.  This is a well-thought out design implementing low latency "direct from RAM playback" and a very low impedance custom power supply designed by Dr. Sean Jacobs.  It incorporates cascaded linear regulators and the finest Mundorf capacitors resulting in harsh-free musicality, incredible dynamics with wonderful immediacy and rich saturated tone.  It is virtually "plug and play" and is remote controllable by any iPad or Android tablet, PC/Mac, or iPhone/Android phone.  It is capable of CD-rips that will be among the best you will ever experience and may cause you to want to re-rip your collection.  It is a Roon Ready device that is also capable of Spotify playback.  It can also function as a Roon Server for a remote endpoint in a 2nd listening room if so desired and so this unit is extremely versatile.  It comes with 2TB of SSD storage although it can also stream files from any NAS providing virtually unlimited capacity.  At my asking price, I am happy to include nearly 1TB of audiophile-class recordings (mostly classical and jazz).  Also included is a Synergistic Research Blue fuse ($149 value).

This particular unit was used briefly as a demo at RMAF in Denver in 2017.  I purchased it directly from an authorized dealer in "as new" condition immediately after RMAF in November 2017 with only about 20 hours of playback on the unit and so I am considered the original owner.  The unit functions flawlessly and will ship in its original box with manual included.  The manufacturer (Innuos) is very receptive and timely with support issues should it be necessary and support can generally can be handled through remote access via the Internet.  

I will point out one unfortunate but minor cosmetic blemish that has no bearing on performance.  On the back of the unit, there are scratch marks and the white silk screening that surrounds the USB ports and the LAN port have been partially scratched away.  This is due to various attempts at blindly inserting USB cables and LAN cables with the unit tucked away in a cabinet.  This is the only blemish I am aware of and can be seen in the photos I have posted which is why I have conservatively rated this unit a 7/10, otherwise, I would rate this unit a 9/10 as the front, sides, top, and bottom of the server are without blemish.

At my asking price, PayPal fee will be included.
