Lumin U2 or Aurender N200

@audphile1 Which USB cable did you decide on? I will probably replace my Bryston BDP-3 with the N200. (Not willing to pay twice the price for a N20) Currently using a Siltech Classic Legend 380 USB.

FWIW I upgraded from a AQ Diamond USB to the Audience frontRow Reserve USB and it is sensational, but highly expensive. I only needed .75M so that helped. I was going "all in" and end game. N200 as source.

@swede58 I use Audioquest Diamond. I also tried Audience StudioOne and liked it a lot. Fuller and smoother than the AQ but slightly softer on top and woolier in the bass. I can only imagine how good the FrontRow is. 

Will be trying Nordost Tyr 2 soon. I can report back. 

@audphile1

I recommend trying Network Acoustics’s Muon or ENO USB cables. Comes with 30 days return privileges. I’ve owned their ENO USB and it was by far the most natural sounding USB cable under $2K. My 2nd best was Kimber Hybrid USB :-)

@lalitk cool. Will keep it on the list.
I’m about to try Tyr 2 speaker cables so figured I’ll do a full norfost loom for this evaluation. I have Tyr 2 XLRs and Frey 2 PCs
