@big_greg How do you have the impression LUMIN is a part of TEAC/Esoteric? I thought LUMIN is a part of Pixel Magic Systems in Hong Kong, whereas TEAC is part of TEAC Group (along with Tascam & Esoteric) in Japan.
Lumin T2 burn in time?
Hi, I just got a Lumin T2 streamer 3 days ago, and have been playing it continuously for 3 days. So far I think the sound is pretty good. Great details with excellent spaciousness. However, I find the bass to be a little bit thin. I'm comparing this to my current Cambridge Audio 851N streamer. The Lumin is 3x the price of the 851N.
My question for you Lumin owners - how long of a burn in period are you giving your streamer/dac before it reaches its optimal sound? and do you think the bass will improve with the burn in?
Overall I do like the sound, but if the bass department doesn't improve, it would be a show stopper for me. Another thing I wished I had known before purchasing this unit is the lack of remote control. The Lumin App is not bad, but the lack of basic control via an infrared remote is a real bummer. I'm not looking for full fledged feature set from a remote, just basic rewind, forward, start, and stop. It saves me the hassle of opening my phone every time to perform these simple tasks.
Anyway thanks in advance!
