When I was shopping for a new playback device recently, I strongly considered the Zenith mk3. It's a great sounding device. As someone said above, it is getting a bit old as far as the CPU platform, which was one of the main reasons I didn't choose it. I think that would impact you more if you used it more like a server to rip and store your entire library. If you are mainly streaming from Tidal/Qobuz/etc it shouldn't matter as much.
Innuos also has their Pulse line that is more focused on streaming, doesn't have optical drive or library storage. So that might be worth looking at if you don't need those options.
I do think almost everything has increased in price pretty significantly from a few years back. Not sure if Innuos is in line with the industry standard or a bit higher though.
