Innuos PULSE Mini?

The mini is great without a lpsu, using just the supplied smps. Used a Sbooster botw p&p power supply, , and the results were phenomenal. Found out Innuos says there is no warranty support if power supply is found  to be at fault. Sent it back to the dealer.  Went with a zenmini lpsu as advised by the company. Am waiting for delivery, ordered one last week. But, yeah you gonna wanna save and get the lpsu.

yes the Zen Mini power supply works and is recommended by Innuos.

I was just sharing that they are planning to release the same supply in a case that more closely matches the PulseMini visually at some point.  The sales manager didn’t have a date on that.  And the Zen Mini supply isn’t that different looking

Here's another recent review of the Mano ULTRA mkIII Farad Music Streamer:-

I have a Innuos Zenith and the Phoenix Network and USB on my main system. For my secondary system, I am strongly tempted to not try other streamers where the connection to the DAC is via I2S, and not as expensive as devices on the Innuos ecosystem. 

The Holo Audio Red streamer is another option. It can serve as a DDC or a streamer. 

Any updates on your end as to where you are now on your streamer journey? It sure is going to be a long journey ... LOL.

Thank you for providing the review link. I’ve been sidetracked with my audio streaming pursuit. Since receiving my new DAC awhile back, it pairs fabulously with my Pro-Ject RS2T transport. I’ve been totally engrossed with listening to CDs. Quite a marvelous music presentation that this combo yields.

I know what you mean! Comparatively good CDPs beat good streaming rigs (a generalisation). I have a Hegel Mohican, Metronome LePlayer 1 and am about to get delivery of a PS Audio SACD transport which I will link to my Holo May DAC via I2S. I2S seems to be a major differentiator so I am eager to try it out!

Have heard good things about the Pro-Jest RS2T CDT with its next-gen CD system. Do share your findings if you are able!  And if you do get back on your audio streaming pursuit, do let me know your "discoveries" as you navigate the uncharted seas :-)
