The ZEN Mk3 provides another leap in sound quality compared to the ZENmini with its integrated dual-linear PSU, isolated dual-ethernet ports, and asymmetrical anti-vibration feet. The ZEN Mk3 represents new value for money in digital audio performance. ⦿ New Custom Motherboard with reduced EMI⦿ Dual Ethernet Ports for LAN and Streamer with dedicated isolation transformers⦿ Dual-Linear Power Supply with ultra-low noise regulators and Nichicon MUSE Capacitors⦿ 8GB RAM with 4GB In-Memory playback⦿ Asymmetrical isolation feet inspired by the ZENith SE⦿ Ultra-low Noise USB Audio Output⦿ Medical-Grade Mains Filter⦿ New Generation Quad-core Intel CPU 01. Dual-Linear Power Supply The ZEN ensures a cleaner digital signal by reducing power noise. Through a dual-linear power supply, designed by Dr. Sean Jacobs, with ultra-low noise regulator design, Nichicon MUSE Capacitors and medical-grade mains filter, your music opens up and reveals new levels of realism. 02. Custom Motherboard Our own custom-made Innuos 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. 03. 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 networked audio. 04. Anti-vibration Treatment New asymmetrical isolation feet derived from our award-winning ZENith SE plus added chassis treatment help to combat harmful vibrations that affect a clean audio signal. 05. In-Memory Playback Now with twice the memory of the Zen Mk2, the Zen MK3 has 8GB RAM with 4GB dedicated memory. Music is loaded directly to memory for playback so that it doesn’t engage the hard drive, improving sound quality.
