yyyzsantabarbara,
Yes, I do have the Uptone Regen, After Dark clock and power supply and I am running fiber to my Lumin X1 when streaming. The Fiber to me was the best improvement.

Lumin P1 or X1 or others?
Hi,
Nowadays, audio companies are launching more and more streamers. I am listening music from jazz to electro-industrial, contemporain to baroque, dark ambient to experimental, so really wide genres.
I would actually need digital inputs as well. After all, I want to connect wadia transport and Sony dat to it - Of course I can sacrifice this for quality because I also have an analog tube amplifier.
In addition, in Hungary, where I live, my hearing opportunities are limited.
So i listened in a Solution power amp driven paradigm Persona 9H speaker system ( i like other kind of sound - it was too dry, emotionless, sterile for me). On some music you might have heard a difference e.g. Dead can Dance Anastasia sacd, JAZZ is noticeably airier and has some intangible sense of difference. On classical music, the x1 sounded airier again. I would say - if i can put it that way - the difference is 10-15% (for me).
I was also looking for a used streamer. My current option is either a new X1, or a new P1, or a used (1,5 years old ) X1 at the same price as new P1.
What do you think? Which is the best option? Or do you have other suggested option?
Thank your answer in advance
