| Bryston BDP-1 vs Bluesound Node 2i See if you can find a deal on a Aries Femto w/LPS. I had a BDP -1 and reminded me of a 1985 CD player. Hard and cold sounding. Can’t think you would be happy with it. | |
| Any Cambridge users on Tidal? Differences in Tidal levels? I got a bud who has a modded CXN and loves Tidal , but is using Roon. Silly not to try it for free. | |

| New Cary DMS 700 I really liked the Lumin T2 but would have to start over with Speakers and cabling to make it sound good long term in my system. The DMS 600 has a much fuller sound but lacks a tinge of the detail of the Lumin The new 700 hopefully has the best ... | |
| New Cary DMS 700 Street price will be under 6k and Cary will sell a ton of them. Much better sounding than the Aurender A10 and the Lumin T2. Plus more features I don’t think the Rasperry Pi crowd is their target audience. It’s guys like me that want a one box so... | |
| Dedicated Music Room Recessed Lighting (High Hats)? Just finished up my listening room and using led 2700k cans. Airtight unlike the old style cans. Good dimmer and you are good to goi have a couple of cases of green glue and s few tubes of acoustic caulk if you need them. Russ | |
| New Cary DMS 700 Some fluff for sure. I think the team at Cary are very excited about their new player. 30 day trial so kinda risk free. | |
| Warm romantic & detailed Your Lumin T2 may be your problem. Had one in my system for a couple of weeks. Very detailed , but definitely can definitely get fatiguing over time. Look for a Dac with a AKM chipset or similar Sonics. You will lose a touch of detail but you will... | |

| New silversmith fidelium cable What you hear is what you get. Very little break in time. It’s a great cable | |
| New Cary DMS 700 Audiotroy,You are no longer a Cary dealer correct? You are a Lumin dealer though, correct?By meaning plug and play I mean into an existing system SQ wise. Not hardware.Most systems will have to be tuned to fit the Lumin. The Cary will sound good ... | |
| New Cary DMS 700 Tough to compare the Lumin T2 to the Cary 700 if the Cary is anything like the DMS 600. You cannot just swap players. They are so different, to get each of their best you have to match the electronics, speakers and cabling.The Lumin is super deta... | |
