| Lumin or Aurender I chose Lumin, very happy with it. | |
| Amp Upgrade time, $6000 budget, used or new. There is a nice pair of Parasound JC1's listed for $4500. I've had mine for years and have no desire to upgrade. | |
| What is Happening? Is it possible you have some tubes that need to be replaced? | |
| Audioquest DBS System Mine just died after probably 5 years or so, easy replacement. | |
| Need a preamp, new or used. I have very similar musical tastes and also use Parasound amplification (JC1's) with AQ cabling and have been really happy with my Levinson 326 preamp.The rest of my system includes a Lumin streamer, Ayre QB-9 Twenty DAC, Aerial 10T's and a JL F11... | |
| Is the Mytek Brooklyn Bridge or Lumin D2 good buys in 2021? Another vote for Lumin. I'm using their U1 Mini to my Ayre QB-9 and thrilled with the combo. | |

I used my Mac Mini connected to my Ayre QB-9 DAC with a USB cable (I use Audioquest Diamond since you asked), and played Tidal and Amazon HD streaming services. I recently replaced it with a Lumin ... | |

| Will streaming ever be "audiophile-worthy"? I agree, it already is. I used Tidal for a while and prefer Amazon HD but streaming is a fantastic source - in fact it's my only source! | |
| velodyne dd plus? still considered best of the best? The DD subs use to be cutting edge, but like others I would not purchase one now with the new ownership and questionable support.One of the most musical subs I've heard is the Aerial Acoustics SW-12, however these are pricier than the others you m... |
