Pickup locations possible this week: Gosford, Haymarket or Alexandria. Lumin T2 Streamer DAC Preamplifier is up for sale. It's less than a year old and still under warranty. I am the original owner, having purchased it from the authorized dealer, Krispy Audio. I acquired it as an interim solution while searching for an all-in-one amplifier. This exceptional product delivers crystal-clear sound from streaming platforms and seamlessly integrates with all major streaming services, including Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify, and Airplay 2. The Lumin T2 boasts a high-quality DAC that, in my experience, rivals even the Chord Qutest DAC in A/B testing. Its onboard DAC offers remarkable transparency, an airy soundstage, and impressive resolution when paired with a resolving downstream system. Regarding the T2 vs. T3 model comparison, I auditioned both and found that the sound quality improvement in the T3's DAC was negligible, making the T2 a more cost-effective choice. A standout feature of the Lumin T2 is its capability to upsample to DSD, which significantly enhanced sound quality in my system, particularly with my Pass Labs components. The digital volume control is truly transparent, and in my main Pass Labs setup, I couldn't discern any drop in quality when switching between the analog preamp and the Lumin's volume control. I have all the original packaging available, allowing me to ship anywhere in Australia.

akchart Posted December 13, 2023 Posted December 13, 2023 I upgreded to Lumin from a Cambridge and could not believe how much of a difference this chnage made in the firmness of the base above all.

I am curious, as a Lumin streamer/DAC owner myself what is an all-in-one-solution? I thought a combined streamer/DAC is the all-in-one and the streamer and separate DAC is the alternative, is there another option? If you don't mind saying, what is it you are changing too? Cheers

I'm moving this system to the main living room where I can accomodate one unit only everybody in household can use. That room is not acoustically friendly. So I'm going with TDAI 3400, which is a step down from Lumin, but I have to keep family (wife) happy. Lyngdorf is the only compromise I could accept.
maximus Posted December 18, 2023 Posted December 18, 2023 I've added an LPS to my T2 and a brand new Apple Mac Air with the M2 chip. 24 bit upscaling and DSD512 never sounded so good. Hair raising on some recordings., won't be selling mine in a hurry. Terrific streamer. GLWS. 1
