Enjoying LEEDH Processing….


With my Lumin T2 connected to my PrimaLuna integrated. I removed the pre-amp circuit completely using the HT bypass settings. I am still able to use Roon. I am hearing significantly more detail that is not analytical but more organic. The soundstage and imaging have improved very noticeably. I will go back to the full function with the pre-amp in a few weeks for comparison but I really like what I’m hearing right now. YMMV.

Does the LEEDH processing work with Lumin products that don't have an onboard DAC? I notice my U1-mini has this processor, but I always keep the volume control fixed. Can this work with an outboard DAC?

Ozzy, apparently yes is the answer to your question. Please go to the Roon community website and open the LUMIN hardware discussion group and you will see someone who asked this exact same question and you can see how he has configured things

While this speaks well for LEEDH processing, I think what you are really enjoying is the absence of the primaluna pre.  Primaluna has a full featured preamp that isn't as transparent as the simpler ones.  

OTOH, it is good to hear that Primaluna's amp gives a clear and detailed soundstage without the pre.
