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.

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, ...

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?

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......

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... 
Lumin D2 DAC - worth it to upgrade?
How much better is the T2 compared to the D2? 
Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening.
Can you tell me what the Lumin T2 gives you over the D2?  I think I read the T2 uses 2 DAC chips per channel, whereas the D2 uses only 1.  Is that correct?   Also, the T2 uses Sabre Vs Wolfson for the D2?  What are your thoughts on these two produ...

@audiotroyWhich Lumin model are you using? 
Music Server for feeding Theta Gen VIII DAC
I have ave been considering using a Lumin D2 to replace my laptop to stream tidal to my Classé Sigma SSP. Although the Sigma and the Lumin use the same DAC, am I correct that the Lumin will give me better audio?
