Innuos Zenith mk3 complete disappointment
The node is not in the same league as any innuos most likely low quality sb,or Ethernet cables. The sense app is better then Roon also.  
Innuos Zenith mk3 complete disappointment
The Ethernet and usb cable to the streamer can make all the difference in the world the Tubulus digital cables. The best I have heard the Concentus and Ximius I2S  cables  beat cables at 3 x the price.

Innuos use Mundorf capacitors which warm the sound up a bit  some people want a more neutral perspective .  
Would a DDC (Denafrips Iris) improve my system?
I  see Hermes DDC used for almost $1100, I sell them New for not much over $1100
