Need speaker cable
Audio Envy 
Fitz Carrera BE
Thanks b_limo.  Last time I talked to him on the phone he mentioned doing something with their drivers but didn't know he had gotten around to it yet.  Which tweeter did he use.  Same cabinet size I assume.

Are you sure on the model name as I suspect you have the same model that Hilde had. 
Good Streamer with WiFi Connectivity
I've owned the Aries Mini, Aries Femto and the Aries G1 and have never had a problem running any of them via wireless and could never tell any difference in sound running them wired.  Also have owned a Lumin and the Teac NT-505, which runs off of ... 
Good Streamer with WiFi Connectivity
Aries G1 or G2 
I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?

AURALIC ALTAIR G1 X AURALIC ALTAIR

Warm/Forgiving AES/EBU digital cable less then $1000
Try the Triode Wire Lab AES cable well under your budget limit.  Pete has a 30 day return policy and he runs his cables in on the newest model Cable Cooker before he sends them out.  
Best way to hook up a streamer. Specifically Lumin T2
Lumin recommends the XLR outputs but if you have both types of cables, preferably the same one, then try it both ways and pick the one that sounds best to you.
