Innuos statement


Just upgraded yesterday from the innuos zenith mk3 to the innuos statement. It is a huge step forward. 
The jump in performance from one level to another was clear and obvious, and the improvement was across the board fantastic.  The background was quieter. The dynamics were better. The detail is just more....

I had originally ordered a innuos Phoenix. As I started to look at the cost for a new USB and a new power cord (plus the dollars from the sale of my zenith) and the cost of the Phoenix, I realized that I was getting close to the cost of the statement. I never got the Phoenix in my system but I have read that the combination of the Phoenix and the zenith mkiii is 90% of the statement. Really glad I went full Monty. 
This is by far the single biggest improvement in sound quality that I have added.

Two tweaks on the Statement come to mind, that have worked very well for me:

1 - Get a nice power cord. It will a substantial improvement over stock pc

2 - Chord over in UK makes some Statement-specific umbilical cords. They are pricey ($1,375 for a 0.5M pair), but well worth it. Even at 0.5M length, they are longer than stock umbilicals, which will make it easier to set two units in different shelves.
Congratulations on your new Statement! You made it on top of summit for servers/ streamers. It’s a truly magic piece of equipment.
There is only one after market umbilical cord officially approved from Innuos, the Chord one.

I would not do anything else, as you may brick the unit. Talk to your Innuos dealer, and they will know what I am talking about 

There is a Statement available for sale today over at the other site (USAM). Good price. Maybe some "wiggle room" too
