How good does my system have to be to realize an improvement with cables?
Since many of us have “upgraditis” I bought the best cables I could afford knowing that I will probably upgrade my dac at some point. I went with Transparent Power cord and Transparent XLR’s with Reference Quality. I have a Lumin T2 and when I swi... 
Silver Speaker Cables
@gnoworyta  Having used and experienced both I found that silver provided more detail and an improved soundstage.  They can, however, brighten your music a bit too much.  I am not sure of your amp and speaker combo but that also plays a big role.... 
Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital?
@m-db  Lumin T2 and Roon Nucleus+.  Way under 10K OR used Lumin X1 and Roon Nucleus+ also throw in a NAS drive and you are still under 10K if you get the Lumin T2. Let us know how you make out with your decision!  
Looking for a streamer/DAC
Check out the Lumin T2.  One stop shopping.  Great app, great support and easy to use. Let us know know how you make out!

Lumin U2 Mini
@malibu457  I think the level of streamer you buy depends on your system.  Having just recently demoed Innuos and MSB products the SQ was way above any CD player I have heard.  
SQ difference XLR vs RCA ?
Based on my experience XLR has always sounded better.  I can't think of a single time when I used XLR's that I wish I had used RCA.

Lumin U2 Mini
I have a Lumin T2 and just recently demoed the Innuos.  Based on my experience the Lumin is the easier and more reliable of the two.  I had an issue early on with my Lumin and connected directly with the distributor in California and they walked m... 
Less Is Really More - Schiit's New Yggdrasil DAC - Less Is More
@creditingkarma +1 Nothing even close!  
Does anyone have any recent experience with Kharma loudspeakers?
@crwilli57  So happy for you and glad they worked out!  I remain shocked that Kharma does not get more recognition. Mike at @suncoast_audio is fantastic. What, in your opinion, is the best part about your Kharma's?
