Innuos Digital Players - Innuos Zenith MK2 vs Zenith MK3 or ZEN MK3

Used Zenith MK2's and new ZEN MK3's are around the same price point. I am assuming that the Zenith models may be the sweet spot in the Innuos line. A new Zenith MK3 is above my price range but I do wonder how much of a sound quality improvement there is between the Zenith MK2 and Zenith MK3. Recently I got a Lampizator Amber 3 DAC with the newest USB interface which has built in superclocks. I was shopping used Lampizator's in the higher models when someone suggested that, with the ongoing technical upgrades the new Amber 3 may actually sound better than older higher end models. With that dynamic in mind, I wonder if the same could be true of the ZEN MK3 vs the Zenith MK2?

Oglefront if your only interest is with streaming then look at Lumin or equivalent quality brand , if overall sound quality is a priority and as your budget allows you will have to upgrade your entire network , it will take a lot to maybe rival stored / ripped CDs .
Currently I am very satisfied and content with my Innous Zenith 3 along with a very recent addition of the Innuos Phoenix , I don’t have any desire right now to stream music so the Innuos is a great fit for me , sound quality of stored music on the Zenith 3 alone is fabulous,.
