MoFi controversy
I'm a huge digital fan. I have tons of SACDs and Digital Hi-rez files. I'm also a vinyl collector. I think MoFi is now doing the right thing and all should be good.  MoFi can change the narrative about digital since so many find their versions of...

A couple of thoughts: 1. This is about misleading marketing practices...not which one sounds the best. A One Step could be made from an 8-track tape dub and may be the best sounding ever. However, the box needs to say the source and signal chain ...

@lewm The MoFi One Steps are typically $125 for a 2 45rpm box set. The single 33 ONE STEPS are $100.  The One Step is a higher end product over the General $40 Mofi Lp  
Luxman 595ASE
I think Suncoast still has one   
What next after Lumin T2

What next after Lumin T2
One good thing about the T2 is you can just use it as a streamer and add another Dac. Streaming-wise, I'm guessing you will not find anything much better. You now can focus on finding the right dac.  
Torus vs AudioQuest Niagara
I have the Taurus Tot with surge protection. FANTASTIC!!! Talk to Taylor at Goldprint Audio.

Hifi Rose RS150B

WAITAMINIT! Center stage disappeared with a Modwright KWA 150SE and Daedalus Athena V.2?!

Luxman 595ASE
I love mine    
Oh Boy Schiit Announces 10 Tube Headphone Amp for $1799.00
Each tube increases chance for noise  
McIntosh LB200?
I wish Luxman had some "merch" like McIntosh does  
Point of diminishing returns for a Network Streamers?
@rwwear Yes, however, with all the "bells and whistles" are you actually getting a better Dac and Streamer with the Lumin T2 for a similar price since the Lumin does not have movie screens, graphics, etc?
