Think ill just go with a lumin


Starting out anew. reading all of the post into the wee evening hours, and getting more and more confused, I think I may just get a Lumin DAC/streamer combo. D2 or T2 i suppose, maybe an S1 if i can find one a little cheaper and I scrimp and save a little more.

My situation is rebuilding from scratch, so waiting for pieces to come together. Going with a Mac MA 352, and a pair of devore o96 speakers. Smallish room, just plan on streaming and putting a turntable onto the system, but nothing else. Figure i will just subscribe to tidal or Qbouz for the convenience, although anything appl conected is a plus. Will have a hard wire connection and decent wifi. I suppose i am most worried about how technology may change, and whether I should go R2R, but that rabbit hole started to make my head hurt.

If anyone has some opinions, either it wont work or seems like a solid approach, views are much appreciated.

I have the Mac 352 Integrated with Lumin T2.  Set it up a few months ago.  Quite happy with it even pushing some old PSB towers (they will be upgraded in the near future).  I imagine with your Devore's the sound will be great.  Very happy with the T2. No regrets at all.  I stream mostly Qobuz through Roon although I do use the Lumin App occasionally.  I do find the app a little challenging to use so mostly stick to Roon. Good luck.
