Completely disagree. This DAC with the second PSU ($1750) hits way way above its price point. Aside from that, we were asked by Berkeley to give their latest products a listen and we have the REF3 coming in. But perhaps their Berkeley Alpha DAC...

ozzy, it has been mentioned a few times already but have you tried the Linn Kazoo app from the Windows App store? Or is it you are only interested in an official Lumin-provided app? Kazoo works well enough for me as a free alternative, although I...

You were a skeptic! Glad you got to experience “the real deal”! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Congrats! We love our Aqua LaScala. It’s seriously the best DAC I’ve heard under $10k. R2R + Tubes = yummy. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

I’ve owned both and for me, the 703’s hit way above their price point. They play bigger, more bass and smoother than Sopra 2. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Very nice! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I think you're asking what "dark mode" refers to? It's a commonly used user interface term referring to light-on-dark presentation. Such as white text on a black background. The term has been in use for a long time.

Yes, MSL is the most underrated family of cartridges around. People don’t know how many cartridges they make for other companies - like Air Tight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

704’s are great. I bet they sounded nice with tubes! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thank you. I had a very excited Euro dealer friend call me and rave about them. We started communicating early in 2022. We had evaluation pairs throughout 2022 and countless discussions. We inked the deal for Jan 1, 2023. Sent from my...

Might be your network connection? If your network is unreliable or doesn't have enough bandwidth then playback could get interrupted. That was often a situation that I saw on older Wi-Fi networks with various streaming products.

True. A few things. They kept asking me and Irv is a great guy. They will have some new things coming - nudge, nudge, wink, wink and we are showing together at Axpona and their stuff sounds GREAT! The funny story is that Irv has been asking me...

It sure is. When another dealer told me his nightmare stories with them, I honestly thought it was him. Nope. It’s not. Nobody is perfect, but I will defend our customers to the end when I know there is not an ounce of wrong doing. David...

One of the stupidest accusations deserves an appropriate response. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

When you accuse our customer of plugging RCA cables into a wall outlet (the stupidest thing I’ve heard in 40 years of audio), rather than look at the likely real cause - your tech likely touched the circuit board with a soldering gun with the unit...

Barry, the Opera is being redesigned at this time and hence why we don’t even have it on our price sheet. It’s the last to get the redesign and Neo treatment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
