The Weiss is top of the heap IMO. A streamer is built in and the Weiss has impressive functionality. If you are a headphone person go 502 otherwise 501 will cost less. It also can drive your amp without a preamp in the chain. I owned a T2 and the Weiss is significantly more musical to me, although twice the price of the LUMIN.
Which component to upgrade 1st ?
Hey folks here is my dilemma I have a budget of about 6K for a new component. I currently have Martin Logan Vantage speakers, Audio Research Ref75 amp, Audio Research LS17SE preamp, Rega P6 turntable, and a bluesound node (makes my ears hurt but you have to start somewhere) and a Chord Qutest dac. My wishlist includes Lumin T2, (sell Qutest and node), Audio Research Ref 5 used ( sell LS17SE), used Phono tube dac (currently have Mofi), or used Weiss 502 dac with either a Lumin U2 mini or Bricasti M5. I know start with source first but I can’t wrap my head around which toy first. Thoughts and be kind.
