Matrix Audio have been featured in HiFi PiG a few times; in fact, my first review for HiFi PiG was of their Element X2. They are a brand I have known since long before this, though, and I first reviewed one of their headphone amps all the way back in 2016. In this review, we are looking at 2 of their more recent products, the TS-1 music streamer and the SS-1 network switch.
The TS-1 streamer retails at €2599 whilst the SS-1 comes in at €1499, lets look at what you get for your money.
The Innuos Next-Gen is the Portuguese brand’s latest high-end streaming offering with a host of innovative new features to maximise sound quality and usability. In this review of the ZEN NEXT-GEN from INNUOS, Alan McIntosh doesn’t seem to want to send it back.
