Great. I'm glad you're liking it! The Lumin T2 is definitely a great product! I recently upgraded my cable from my T2 to my preamp and also from preamp to power amp, and it hugely improved the bass. I'm now a happy camper.
Enjoy you Lumin T2!
Lumin T2 burn in time?
Hi, I just got a Lumin T2 streamer 3 days ago, and have been playing it continuously for 3 days. So far I think the sound is pretty good. Great details with excellent spaciousness. However, I find the bass to be a little bit thin. I'm comparing this to my current Cambridge Audio 851N streamer. The Lumin is 3x the price of the 851N.
My question for you Lumin owners - how long of a burn in period are you giving your streamer/dac before it reaches its optimal sound? and do you think the bass will improve with the burn in?
Overall I do like the sound, but if the bass department doesn't improve, it would be a show stopper for me. Another thing I wished I had known before purchasing this unit is the lack of remote control. The Lumin App is not bad, but the lack of basic control via an infrared remote is a real bummer. I'm not looking for full fledged feature set from a remote, just basic rewind, forward, start, and stop. It saves me the hassle of opening my phone every time to perform these simple tasks.
Anyway thanks in advance!

Yes, cables do a lot and I definitely can improve my XLR NF-cable. That is the first thing, that I will check with a good XLR from a friend. Surely, I will check other LS-cables too to optimize the whole sound picture. And another step would be a line filter to supply the whole system with clean and constant power. |
Unfortunately, for every user who thinks it’s important info, there is another that thinks that we are perpetuating a lie as they don’t believe burn-in exists. We’ve even been told that it’s a ’con’ to get people to keep players longer so that they get used to them. Thankfully our dealers are very good at communicating this when people buy players. Really glad you are enjoying your T2!

To the guys on the Lumin team. When I subscribed to Tidal I made up a playlist I could easily add to it and when playing the list it would play one song after the other. When I transfer the list to you Lumin app all on my songs have different numbers in front of them. Some of theses numbers are repeated multiple times. So I play the first song and it immediately stops after each song and will not play the next one. Not an issue in the Tidal app. So now I realize there Is something going on in a screen to my left. Sometimes a few songs appear in there. So I soon realize you can recreate your playlist such that it is numbered one after the other. So one day the magical list appears in the left screen and I have no idea wether I accidentally put it there. So who cares hear we go.There is also a place to delete so I’ma happy man . Next day I go to get the list and it’s gone. The old crappy original one is still to my left with my magical list somewhere in cyberspace. Why not write out a simple K.I.S.S list of step-by-step instructions to get a working list up and running. If I add new tunes to my Tidal app is there a way to get them into my Lumin playlist. Also some feature explanations like why when I press and hold the picture of the album covers does a bunch of squares pop up with lots of lines in them. These are great products and I like them. I think that your app is rated at 3 stars should give you a hint. I am willing to believe if people were able to go through that app in an effortless manner a lot more of your products would be sold. And really do we have to go looking for other apps to run your app. We all have enough problems.These are also really expensive products . You owe it to your customers to get them up and running in as painlessly a manner as possible
