| Lumin T2 with Anthem STR preamp signal going through both DACs? Not sure if you stream tidal, but I don’t think the Anthem DAC is fully MQA compatible, whereas the Lumin T2 is. | |
| Lumin T2 with Anthem STR preamp signal going through both DACs? Yes, unless you have the Anthem set to analog or digital bypass, the analog signal from your T2 is altered by the DSP of the Anthem. IMO, this degrades the signal. You can try it both ways and see which sounds better. I found putting my Clas... | |
| Lumin T2 burn in time? I felt the same way you did at first, but now I am really happy with it. Are you using IOS or Android for the app? I think IOS works much better for some reason. The app works great 99% of the time for me. Every once in while I have to close t... | |
| Lumin T2 burn in time? I have mine connected that way as well. Not sure if your preamp applies any DSP, but I noticed a big difference In sound quality when I set my preamp in digital bypass mode, which eliminates all of the DSP and sends an unaltered analog si... | |
| Lumin T2 burn in time? Are you using a preamp or are you connecting the Lumin directly to your amp?I purchased my T2 in January. I initially thought is was a little harsh and thin sounding on some music. However, after a month or so , the harshness went way and dynami... | |
| Lumin T2 dac gone bad? distortion "spitting" "splatty" in mids/highs I also wanted to mention my T2 sounded terrible on some songs until I set my Classe Sigma processor to digital bypass.. It cleared up the distortion I was having in some songs and the music was much clearer overall. It made quite a difference. | |
| Lumin T2 dac gone bad? distortion "spitting" "splatty" in mids/highs Make sure you set the Anthem to analog bypass, otherwise your T2 analog signal gets converted back to digital when it goes through DSP, which will degrade the quality. The downside is you lose room correction and bass management, but you will get... | |
| Lunim T2 vs Cary Audio DMS 600 I just talked to the sales department there. Apparently they are out of stock and no plans to manufacture any more due to supply issues. What is your thought on the 550? | |
| Lunim T2 vs Cary Audio DMS 600 Good to know about the sale pricing, but website does not currently list it on sale.I previously used the DAC in my Classe Sigma SSP. | |
| Lunim T2 vs Cary Audio DMS 600 Sounds like it is system dependent. I have the Lumin T2 and really like it. Big improvement coming from streaming from my computer. There are times when the Lumin can sound a little bright or harsh, but I think it is more due to the recording, ... | |

| Aurender vs. Roon Audio Troy,You mentioned your favorite streamer for sound quality is the Lumin x1. However, I am considering either the Lumin T2 or an Aurender. How would you rate the Lumin compared to the closest a Audender model? | |
| Blinded By The Light...The Movie I watched the movie last night. Enjoyed it. Motivated me to play a couple of Bruce’s older albums afterwards😀. | |
| Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening. CaphillI am actually using the Audioquest Coffee USB. Now I’m wondering if I should just upgrade the cable again instead of investing in the T2. I guess I just need to try both options. It never ends...... | |
| Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening. Caphill,I know you are well versed on Classe equipment so I thought I would ask you this question. I currently stream tidal from my computer via a high grade Audioquest USB to my Classe Sigma SSP. Although the Sigma has a very good DAC, would usin... |
