Innuos owners. Chime in
@antigrunge2 The current version of the Sense app allows you to clear your queue cache without going through service personnel. Clearing the queue cache is like clearing the cache of your computer or phone. It regularly frees up memory hogged b...

Roon vs Innuos Sense app :- https://community.roonlabs.com/t/having-problems-with-roon-with-innuos-zenith/169710 Roon does not seem to synergise with Innuos.   
Innuos Network Isolation Switch and Reclocker (Phoenix)
@nyev, Roger that. Btw, I just read your review of the USB reclocker on another thread  :- https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/innuos-phoenix-usb-reclocker-sounds-worse As you say, everything is system dependent, so I probably need a home a... 
Innuos Network Isolation Switch and Reclocker (Phoenix)
@nyev, Thanks for your kind response. The sound from my system is very balanced now and from your description of the NET switch’s sonic character, it may smoothen things just a tad too much for my liking. Many thanks again for helping me decide...

@nyev Apologies for being late to this discussion. May I ask whether all the improvements that you hhave described after adding the Phoenix usb reclocker and NET switch apply only to streaming SQ or to stored files too? I would hazard a guess t... 
Innuos Network Isolation Switch and Reclocker (Phoenix)
@chilehed  I agree. Within the confines of my system, I find playing music from storage files to be very much superior to streaming. To get streaming to the same SQ as stored files, going by the duscussion here, I would need to spend a whole lot ...

@antigrunge2   Innuos is deliberately designed with a low power, low noise CPU. Hence the better sound from Sense on Innuos equipment.   +1. The Sense app has 2 great features that also optimise SQ - Offline mode and Queue cache clearing.

@carlsbad  I have read that SQ is optimal with the Sense app instead of with Roon. If you have compared both on SQ alone, you will know if SQ is really any different. Roon interface is of course a big plus that may negate any subtle SQ differences.

@jred Just wondering how you are coming along with your Zen Mk 3. I am enjoying mine very much with a Shunyata digital power cord and Shunyata usb cable. And the Sense app is just wonderful with all functions at your fingertips. Cheers! Enjoy ... 
Ethernet Switch- what's the point?
@recklesskelly  Thanks for the heads up. Cheers!  
Ethernet Switch- what's the point?
@recklesskelly  "Fiber and be done." Why does fibre not need a switch? I have fibre and am thinking of getting one until your post. Thanks in advance.  Jon  
MQA actually tested
My original post was that I was listening, or "using my ears to judge" as you so eloquently put it, to MQA files compared to my own FLAC collection and noticed a marked difference in that the FLAC was much richer and had better extension. The mea... 
The MQA debate is finally over
adds that DSD smoothness to whatever you are listening to.  Not something everyone would like for every recording but personal preferences are well respected.   
The MQA debate is finally over
You are describing my exact experiences with quad DSD vs PCM (24/96 and greater). +1  
The MQA debate is finally over
Here we go. I remember hardware companies refused to sign up for MQA licensing simply because they had to hardwire an increase in volume for the decode process. And that’s the difference folks are hearing. I have heard both formats through both MQ...
