Wow. Just added the Lumin T2 to my set up...


Hi guys,
This post is apropos of nothing except that I have been struggling to get good bass and separation from my system... which ostensibly should have sounded great already. I started with the Hegel H390 running roon on a dedicated mac mini. These are paired with the new KLH Model 5s (which do punch above their weight) but I was getting rather thin, bright sound. So I upgraded many cables to the tune of $thousands. Each new cable brought incremental improvement (audible but not enough). Finally I sprung for the Lumin T2.
CRAZY improvement. I had to run it without connection to the H390 for a couple of days as I waited for my XLR cables so it was a little broken in. Finally listened to it yesterday and practically wept at the improvement.
In a nutshell, the bass is now well defined but appropriately deep when necessary. I can hear separation between instruments and between speakers. It feels like I discovered a new deeper dimension of music.
So, for everyone wondering about the T2, the answer is yes.

Looking forward to it. Fedex dropped the ball yesterday, so I don't have it yet, hopefully tomorrow.
I exaggerated a little, I had a cheap streamer for a few years, was okay for what it was, but it wasn't capable of running Tidal or anything like that.
@builder3 It is really true what they say... break it in for two weeks. I have been running mine to my amp (which is off) 24/7 for a week. The improvement is amazing. Going to keep it running for another 2 weeks as one poster said that it really needs 500 hours. 
The T2 is also my first streamer... I just decided to go big or go home :)
I just bought a T2, it will be here today. I'll be back with a hundred questions, I expect, lol. This will be my first real streaming device, looks like I have a lot to learn.
@fuzztone, I have tried the Raspi. It is a lot worse than Mac Mini. Sorry for bursting your bubble. 
Love the Lumin T2 in the right system. Sounds like you have the right system!!
