Subwoofer Recommendation for Harbeth SHL5+ Rythmik F12 | |
Hegel HD25 w/Innous Zen mini mk 3 vs Lumin D1 w/Roon Nucleus If you are going to use the Hegel as the DAC then the U1 Mini is the proper choice. The D2 does MQA fully the U1 Mini just like the Zen does not. | |
Another streaming newbie To answer your question yes there are front end (streamer only) units but they start generally in the area of the top of your budget and are from companies like Lumin, Auralic, Aurender and Innuos unless you want to buy something based on the the ... | |
Need help replacing my beloved Magnepan.... Fritz. I own the Carrera Be's which suit me but he has other models that may suit your preferences better. Call him and talk. | |

Lumin u1 mini vs bryston bdp3 No, not a dealer anywhere near me and the reports of their problematic software never inspired me to hunt one out. The Lumin's and Auralic's I have owned have operated flawlessly so no need to explore further in that price range. | |
Lumin u1 mini vs bryston bdp3 U1 Mini+Sbooster or Aries G1 (no LPS needed) over the Bryston no contest. I don't buy digtial devices from a non-digital specialty company. | |
DAC Streamer Recommendation The list of streamers that are compatible with Amazon HD are on their website and that is all there are for the near future. Amazon seems to be in no hurry to release their API to other companies and all of them have asked. | |
Lampizator DAC Amber crackling noise Since good NOS 6X5's are readily available for less than $20 it is worth ordering one and see if that fixes the problem. | |
Component recommendations for Wilson Audio Alexx Based on recent reports you might want to add the newest EMM gear to the list along with the Lumin X1 if all you're going to do is stream Tidal or another service. | |
Lumin Player App Issues Have you tried re-booting everything all the way back to the router? | |
Tidal Error Message If you want to use it on multiple devices pay for the Family plan. | |
Tidal Error Message If you were using the app on the smart phone and went straight to the desktop it may still thing the phone is primary so shut both down and then bring up the desktop alone. |
