Lumin U2 vs Aurender N200
I’m looking to upgrade my streamer from a Bluesound Node 2i. My DAC is the module that comes in the McIntosh MA 8950.
I curious about others experience with these two streamers. How they may differ.
currently I’m using Tidal but would change it SQ could be improved. I thing the interface with the Node is decent.
Thanks for any feedback.
Aurender support is excellent. That is worth something to me. I flipped some equipment and that plus $800 out of pocket put me into the N200. I never thought I would buy such a pricey streamer but that deal was a huge value proposition for me. I’m glad I picked it up. It , along with my LAB 12 DAC 1 Ref is a great sounding combo. Sounds fantastic. I am done chasing good digital sound…. |

@vonhelmholtz Great thought on the upgrade path. My thought is @john1629 could avoid a double hit on purchasing both a DAC and a streamer now, and as he improves his system he may want to move up the line on an even better DAC or streamer. Buying a used A200 gives him a significantly improved experience for less money. Allowing more money for other tweaks in the shortrun. The good and bad news is, John has so many choices. So many toys so little time. |
