McIntosh to Luxman?
@russbutton There actually is a significant audible difference between McIntosh and Luxman.  The detail and soundstage of Luxman is superior to McIntosh.  Having owned McIntosh 1.25KW mono amps and demoed Luxman products you would be surprised at ... 
McIntosh to Luxman?
As a current owner of McIntosh MX160 and MC8207 and former owner of a pair MC1.25kw mono blocks the answer for me is go with the Luxman.  Two years ago I decided to "see what else was out there" and demoed several amps from various manufacturer's....

@essrand i tried to reach out to them but no one responded to my inquiry. Does it have Roon software built in?  
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
Appreciate feedback @macdude still demoing the Grimm.but leaning towards a purchase.  One major item that The Grimm MU1 offers is that there is significant simplification in the set up. Ethernet to the Grimm then AES to my Nagra Tube Dac. With oth...

Curious to know your streaming and dac set up and the best recommended streamer under $15k
@metaldetektor  interested in hearing more about the DP MPS-X. They have an impressive looking array of products.  On your demo are you working with a dealer or direct with manufacturer? Thanks! Mark

Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
Little late to the party but received a Grimm MU1 a couple days ago to demo. Quite honestly, I’m shocked by the transformation this unit makes to my system. System had NUC for Roon, then my Lumin T2 as my streamer into my Nagra tube dac. The Grimm...

Fee for home audition
There are other dealers that will ship you this as a new unit and send a "demo" invoice and give you a week to 10 days to demo in your home.  If you like it then you buy it within those 10 days and keep it. If you don't like it then you ship it ba...

Should I upgrade my speaker cables?
Check with a local dealer. Often demoing cables is a lot easier than equipment. Good luck and let us know how you make out.   
Roon….can anyone point me to “human” tech support
Contacted dealer and did some trouble shooting. In the end I sent back to Roon and they replaced the SSD.  It was failing.  Unfortunately, it was just out of warranty.  The repair and shipping both ways ended up costing me $199 total.  As bad as R...
