Lumin X1 with Innuous Zenith Mk3 Question
Hi OP,  Yes, I was also looking at the X1 and was surprised to see no other digital inputs.  I use my DAC as a streamer and endpoint for ROON, and also use additional optical input for TV Audio.  For this kind of money, I would strongly consider t... 
Caveat about the Cable Company return policy
I have had nothing but good service and good experiences with Steven at the Cable Company.  He guided me through several shipments from the lending library, and I ultimately bought nice B stock Audience cables.  Ken 
B&W 803 d3. Is a 16 x 12 size room ok for this spkr?
The 803 would be great.  Not too big.  Richer sound. 
B&W 804 D3 vs 803 D3
I have owned 804N and do own 803N and 802N.  I have auditioned the D3 802s and 803s.  Many here dump on BW but they are great speakers with right electronics.  How big is your room?  The 803s are a big upgrade, but to me, the 802s are a huge jump ...

WHY NO GENESIS HIGH RES LOVE?
Yes I agree Steve is awesome.  I have seen him several times in DC and Philadelphia.  Even the reenactment group The Musical Box is worth seeing.  That was when I went to concerts...   Ken

Hi discopants,  In my set up, my Modem / router and a giga bite switch are both in my office remote of my listening areas.  I also have my Nucleus+ in my office direct to the router.  Then cables (cat5E) travel through walls to my  DAC / Streamer ... 
What has been your costliest mistake in this hobby?
Also blew out one channel of a nice Yamaha Receiver in the 80's.....disconnected the speaker to paint, the wires shorted and the unit was on.  Learned that lesson.... 
What has been your costliest mistake in this hobby?
My biggest mistake?...I'll call it experience that led me to spending money.Went to a local home / dealer to audition a Parasound Halo Integrated amp. It was right in my 'wheelhouse'.for price point and has excellent reviews. It sounded good.  We ...
