Lumin T2 burn in time?
Thingswelike, Does changing the output setting from normal to low on my Lumin T2 change any of the dynamics, or does it simply lower the volume. I noticed The specs on my Classe processor say maximum XLR analog input is 4VRMS (which I think is voltage). I believe the low output On the Lumin T2 is also 4 volts. If I set it to low output, am I losing any data? |
Firstly for the proper LUMIN support channels you are best emailing [email protected] as that gets distributed to the correct expert technician (which is definitely not me), however... Hi bwguy - no compromise with setting it low. Another way is to connect with RCA instead of XLR - that has the lower voltage anyway. If possible you could compare both. |
Hi, I just want to give an update to everyone on this thread on the Lumin T2 after a little over 2 weeks of burning in. I have to say the T2 is sounding much better now. Bass has definitely improved, and the overall sound is just so 'sweet', for a lack of better word. I am really liking the sound of this unit. The treble is not harsh or bright and bass goes pretty low. Overall it is very musical, and enjoyable to listen to. I think this is going to be a keeper for me. Now I wonder how much better the X1 sounds at 3 times the price. Anyone here who has heard both the T2 and X1 cares to comment? There are still a few things I would like to see, and hopefully the Lumin team will consider it for the next version: - more robust Lumin app. I'm still losing connection to the unit every so often, and it's annoying as hell. - The Lumin app is actually not bad to use. It is pretty fast when it is working. There is one feature that I wish Lumin team would consider re-implementing and that is the 'shuffle' feature. I had already described it in one of my previous posts in this thread. - consider adding a desktop version of the app. - Add infrared remote capability to the unit. I'm talking just a handful of convenient features like starting, stoping, pausing, skipping, rewinding songs, powering on/off the unit, and for bonus, ability to scroll up and down the playlist. I still find it annoying to always have to go to my phone for simple control. I prefer to just use a remote control instead of reaching for my phone. Simple things like dimming the display takes a handful of steps to get to. I understand the Lumin team is probably trying to keep the unit as simple as possible, and I get that. I think the unit looks simple and beautiful. I am not asking for buttons on the front panel, but a simple infrared sensor. I am willing to pay up to $1000 more for this addition. Anyway, this is a great sounding unit from Lumin at a reasonable price tag for the sound quality that it delivers. Kudos to the Lumin team. Well done! |
@xcoolHave you considered buying a relatively cheap tablet for dedicated use controlling your T2? I really enjoy mine, and keep it propped up in view to see what’s playing. It’s always there when you need it, like an infrared remote, but so much more useful. Then, if you are not near the tablet you can also pull out your phone as well. I have found that both can be active at the same time. |
