2 channel preamp and a/v processor setup to avoid dual volume control issues.
Unfortunately no easy way to do that , the Krell has no Unity Gain or HT bypass input.    I would imagine the Krell's  ladder type volume control is virtually transparent,  I would just set it at a volume that is high enough to get good sound at ... 
Lumin U2 or Aurender N200
I will echo how great Aurender support is.    These are basically computers so support is key.  Aurender can correct some issues over the network.    I was having an issue with internet radio stations and they took care of it remotely.   
Lumin U2 or Aurender N200
I was hoping to demo a Lumen and that didn’t work out.   Have heard a lot of positive things about the hardware and SQ.       I bought a N200 and have zero regrets , it is a great machine   
Bluesound Node settings
My last few cable purchases have been DH Labs. I think the D750 Coax and Mirage cables are excellent quality for the money.   I also have their Air Matrix Cryo RCA and my all tube system is dead quiet ....  put your ear right against the horn twee... 
Bluesound Node settings
Enjoy.   My first streamer was the Bluesound Vault 2i.   That machine changed my life...    I have never discovered so much great music in such a short time.    I still play LPs but find myself streaming most of the time.   Try them both.  When ... 
Eversolo a6 and Lampizator
The Eversolo is better than you would think at it's price.   I have always been a harsh critic of budget Chinese gear, but I have first hand experience with the A6 and it is pretty damn good as a streamer only .  I set one up in my Dad's system , ... 
Potentially Dumb Question on Aurender Models/Pricing A200 vs N200
I have a N200 and initially thought the same thing.   If you look at the inside of a N200 it's clear that its not just an A200 without a DAC.   A lot of that space is dedicated to the power supply and USB isolation.    I already had a great sound... 
Polishing a Micro Seiki RT 3000G Gunmetal platter
As Carlsbad noted, work up to finer abrasives. I like the 3m foam sanding pads for auto use.   1200, 3000, 5000.    5000 makes a lacquer finish look like glass.  3m makes sandpaper and pads for polishing / fine sanding from 1000 on up. 1200, 1500,...

Weakest link in my system

Lab12 DAC1 Reference Problem
So they have since update the original manual since I got mine...  
Lab12 DAC1 Reference Problem
Do you by any chance have CAT 8 ethernet cable?   I had a different problem, not sure it was limited to the DAC where I had dropouts and noise.  Went back to cat 6 and problem solved.   I took that advice from a member here , not to use cat 8 for ... 
Lab12 DAC1 Reference Problem
Any settings in the Electrocompeniet ?   Upsampling?   If so turn it  off.     
Lab12 DAC1 Reference Problem
Try swapping Coax 1 for 2 and keep the Bluesound out of the loop while troubleshooting     
Oppo Blu-Ray Players in 2023
I still use an OPPO 103d to spin discs.    It's been a great machine , too bad OPPO got out of the game.
