Replace Macbook into Oppo with Lumin T2 for streamer/DAC?


I’m currently using Qobuz on a Macbook Pro (via USB) into an Oppo 105D as a makeshift DAC/streamer combo. The Lumin T2 seems like a significant step up as a DAC/streamer. I’d appreciate any advice on the upside or downside of the Lumin T2.
I understand there are many other DAC/streamer/server/ripper options available. I’m specifically interested in feedback on the Lumin T2 with Qobuz. Cheers.

I have owned a T2 for a little over two years. It has performed flawlessly and the sound quality it provides is what I like: very good tone, soundstaging and detail without sounding analytical. I have used the LUMIN app but I am a Roon man so that supersedes use of the app, which took me about a day to master and is more than adequate.The only tweaks I did are Herbie’s footers and an audioquest monsoon power cord. Previous to the LUMIN, I used a Mac mini and it’s an understatement to say it was a step up when I went with the LUMIN. I am a Qobuz user And I could easily hear the sonic differences between that service and Tidal while the Lumin lets you hear more into the recording as the resolution numbers climb with the Qobuz stream

Look the main thing to keep in mind is that the Oppo is a universal player and it will play all your physical media if thats important. Also, Feeding a signal from your computer to the Oppo is fine, the Oppo does the rest and dont discount what that means, its a serious contender against anything in the 5K range. Oppo dosent make these players anymore and they are special considering the new price ($1200). I would look to upgrade the way you stream  music by purchasing a LEGIT streamer from Aurender ($2500-$3500) and connect USB to the Oppo,and do it right! Oppo 105 is a awesome DAC by itself.
