Experience with Lumin L2?
So, I guess I need to ask this again. I am very skeptical about paying $4000+ for an item (Lumin L2) that is essentially an external hard drive. I have my Lumin X1 (it has a direct fiber input) connected via fiber from the EtherRegen which is co...

Worst Speakers Ever??
Way back in the early 70’s for a few months I was a Radio Shack Manager (my age was 18) I remember we had a speaker that was called the MC 500. It sold for $50 bucks. The store paid about $12 bucks for them from Tandy Corp. Frequently we would h...

Experience with Lumin L2?
I own the Lumin X1 and I have an 8TB hard drive attached to it. I really don't see anything that would suggest that the sound quality would be better with the L2. ozzy  
Worst Speakers Ever??
botrytis, I still have the Radio Shack Mach 1’s. But, I replaced all the interior wiring, changed the midrange and the tweeters along with a new crossover and 5-way speaker binding posts. Re-braced and sealed the cabinet and now I use it in my p...

MICHI 8 Amp(s)
"previous to the Michi 8 I owned Bob Carver M 350, Pass Labs X350.8.350.5, Atmosphere M60-3.3, Krell amps and several others." The Michi 8 amps have more soundstage, depth and an effortless sound that works very well with my present speakers. ozzy  
MICHI 8 Amp(s)
My Michi Mono amps are very heavy (140lbs). I have them sitting on top of 4” solid Maple amp stand(s). Pictures are on my systems page. Underneath the stand I installed 2” Audio Points and underneath the Audio points I placed some Herbie’s spike ...
