Innuos PhoenixUSB Reclocker
The Innuos PhoenixUSB is a high-performance USB reclocker designed to take the USB signal from your music server or computer and completely regenerate it with extreme precision before it reaches your DAC. By delivering a dramatically cleaner, more accurate signal, it allows your DAC to perform at its full potential.
Rather than functioning as a simple accessory, the PhoenixUSB effectively combines the performance benefits of three separate high-end components in one meticulously engineered chassis:
- A USB signal regenerator
- A dedicated linear power supply
- A precision master clock with its own independent linear power supply
Drawing on the engineering expertise developed for the flagship Innuos STATEMENT music server, the PhoenixUSB incorporates several key design principles that set it apart.
Precision Power Design
The USB regeneration stage is designed without switching regulators. Instead, three independent voltage rails are supplied by a dedicated linear power supply, with further refinement provided by three LT3045 regulator stages. This ultra-clean power architecture minimizes electrical noise at the source.
Ultra-Low Phase Noise OCXO Clock
At the heart of the PhoenixUSB is a 3ppb OCXO clock operating directly at 24MHz. The clock is positioned just inches from the USB chip and connected via a short board trace, eliminating the signal degradation that can occur with external 10MHz master clocks and additional clock generators. The result is exceptional timing accuracy and reduced jitter.
Dual Statement-Level Linear Power Supplies
Two independent, Statement-grade linear power supplies are used:
- One dedicated exclusively to the OCXO clock
- One dedicated to the USB chip and 5V USB line
This separation ensures optimal isolation and stability for each critical stage of operation.
What You Can Expect Sonically
When integrated into a revealing system, the PhoenixUSB typically delivers:
- Greater dimensionality and image precision
- Improved transient clarity
- Lower noise floor
- More natural flow and timing
- Increased overall realism
For systems where USB is the primary digital connection, the Innuos PhoenixUSB can be a transformative upgrade — elevating performance without replacing your existing DAC or server.

Innuos Phoenix USB reclocker review
Scary Monsters. And super creeps. David Bowie. And Robert Fripp. Listen intently to the album on a decent hi-fi system and you’ll not miss the King Crimson founder’s “Applied Frippertronics”: guitar sounds routed through a twin-tape-machine delay that tears at the very fabric of songs like “Fashion”, “It’s No Game Pt. 1“ and “Teenage Wildlife”. Fripp optimises Bowie.

Innuos Phoenix USB Reclocker Review
The Innuos Phoenix USB reclocker is here. Avid computer audiophiles are well aware of the sonic gains of having USB conditioning. If you’d like an introduction behind using USB reclockers in your digital playback system, check out my review of the SOtM tX-USBultra here. In short, the goal of a USB reclocker is to provide a clean and well-timed signal to the DAC from the server. The improvements are usually in soundstage, detail, solidity, and tonality.

Product Description
Lehmann Black Cube SE II – Precision Phono Stage for True Audiophiles
The Black Cube SE II builds on the acclaimed SE circuit, upgraded with superior sockets and an adjustable bass filter, allowing you to fine-tune your system to your personal listening preferences. Designed for maximum musical engagement, it delivers the sensation that your favorite recordings were crafted just for you, bringing instruments and vocals closer than ever.
Tailored for Every System
Compatible with nearly all MM and MC cartridges, the Black Cube SE II includes solder-free slots for custom impedance adjustments, plus an extra hardwired plug-in location for immediate flexibility. Optional matching resistors can be provided with your order at no extra cost, making it easy to optimize the phono stage for your system.
Audiophile-Grade Audio Circuitry
At its core, a high-precision passive RIAA filter network sits between two linear gain stages, built with surge-proof, narrow-tolerance polypropylene capacitors. This design preserves transients, dynamics, and timbres with exceptional clarity. Professional-grade input stages reduce noise while enhancing precision and power. Additional modules handle hum, high-frequency interference, and random voltage suppression, and the double-sided audio board ensures a low-interference signal path.
Dependable PWX Power Supply
The external PWX power supply features a custom toroidal transformer with static shielding, providing stable, safe, and powerful operation. Gold-plated Neutrik XLR connectors maintain secure connections, while shielded cables and mechanically damped aluminum housings minimize vibrations and interference.
Elegant Design
With a choice of silver, black, or chrome-plated front panels, the Black Cube SE II combines audiophile-grade performance with a refined aesthetic that looks as good in your HiFi rack as it sounds in your system.
Professional Endorsement
Known for its neutral, natural sound, Lehmann equipment is trusted by professional recording studios and music experts worldwide. The Black Cube SE II offers a high-fidelity listening experience that reveals every nuance in your favorite recordings.
Note: The sonic profile of Lehmann gear is perhaps the most neutral we can find. This brand is quite popular with our professional music/recording studio clients.

“Upgraded to the SE version by the PWX, it was definitely poking the fire again like almost no other phono pre in its price range. Merciless heavy rock by Vanilla Fudge or massive bigband attacks by Count Basie were just about to blaze through the listening room. Pimped in such a hot manner, the Lehmann Black Cube SE II is state-of-the-art.”

“This is a true audiophile phono stage and, partnered with equipment of equal quality, the results are remarkable. Indeed, the SE II is difficult to fault even compared to the competition in a much higher price bracket. The exceptionally low background noise allied to a fabulous rhythmic and tonal rendition makes it worthy of consideration for those seeking the most detail from their vinyl without having to make a hyperspace price jump.”
