Does Lumin x1 needs a dac ? does a good dac will improve it ?

Hi,

I have lumin x1 and metronome cd player. Most of the time I hear music by using lumin and tidal and I'm less using my cd player.

I'm a bit confused to decide if i have to add a DAC to my system, will it improve the sound of my lumin or not ? It defiantly will improve the sound of my cd player, but because I'm less using it I'm in a confused situation to decide. 

If it will improve my wonderful lumin sound too This  may convince me to buy a new DAC.

If it's important i have a vivid kaya 45 speakers, i have a CAT JLE 5 amp, lumin X1, metronome cd and Plinius pre 

Thanks for everyone.

Haim.

The x1 is amazing sounding And is a bargainfor the sound quality

 

We have to go to a 16k server plus a 16k dac

be able to beat an x1

 

 

So even for 14k the x1 is approaching the best digital playback possibile

Call Dave in NJ from the above text.  He sold me all of my Lumin products.  He can either help you  with the proper cabling and hookup to your CD player or he does sell a very good less expensive Music Server that would benefit your system
