I really liked the Lumin T2 but would have to start over with Speakers and cabling to make it sound good long term in my system. The DMS 600 has a much fuller sound but lacks a tinge of the detail of the Lumin   The new 700 hopefully has the best ...

Street price will be under 6k and Cary will sell a ton of them. Much better sounding than the Aurender A10 and the Lumin T2.  Plus more features I don’t think the Rasperry Pi crowd is their target audience. It’s guys like me that want a one box so... 
Dedicated Music Room Recessed Lighting (High Hats)?
Just finished up my listening room and using led 2700k cans.  Airtight unlike the old style cans. Good dimmer and you are good to goi have a couple of cases of green glue and s few tubes of acoustic caulk if you need them. Russ

Some fluff for sure. I think the team at Cary are very excited about their new player.  30 day trial so kinda risk free.  
Warm romantic & detailed
Your Lumin T2 may be your problem. Had one in my system for a couple of weeks. Very detailed , but definitely can definitely get fatiguing over time. Look for a Dac with a AKM chipset or similar Sonics. You will lose a touch of detail but you will...

Audiotroy,You are no longer a Cary dealer correct?  You are a Lumin dealer though, correct?By meaning plug and play I mean into an existing system SQ wise. Not hardware.Most systems will have to be tuned to fit the Lumin. The Cary will sound good ...

Tough to compare the Lumin T2 to the Cary 700 if the Cary is anything like the DMS 600. You cannot just swap players.  They are so different, to get each of their best you have to match the electronics, speakers and cabling.The Lumin is super deta...

BTW an EtherRegen will get you closer to SQ of local files.

That’s cool. Know you are excited. Rip some of your great files to a SD card   You will be amazed.  
Persona 9h vs S3 mk 2
Like to see a tube pre amp with the Personas. Tames the little bump in the upper mid. Plus a big room really helps. Once dialed though they are a great speaker.  
Speaker cables Mid High end
Another plus one on the Fidelium. Much better sounding cable than any of the Audience 24 series. ( had them all)   Trial and you can’t beat the price. Best bass definition you will find under a grand. Very detailed but in a warmer way which makes ...
