    LUMIN T2 vs. X1

    How close does the T2 come to the X1? I have a D1 with the Sbooster power supply and have enjoyed it immensely and especially its ease of use as I exclusively stream Quobuz and Tidal. Might be time for an upgrade! Thanks.

    Have compared the S1 and X1. The latter is a step up over the S1.

    I did try both although its some time ago now i had them on loan , but i can assure you that the X1 is a really big step up from the T2. All things gets better , imaging , 3D , seperation , and so on , its just an awesome streamer.
    T2 is also very good in its own . and for the money. But no comparison to the X1.

    Coming from some one who has owned both... the X1 is definitely smoother/more nuanced than the T2. The improvements are more noticeable in more expensive and transparent systems. The T2 is the much better deal for most people with complete systems in the $15-$30K range.
