Puma Cat, can I ask how you are running them from your P1?

Re: Trying to play BD on my PC can be daunting.

Re: The amazing Lumin P-1 is now the Heart of my system.
Peter, I just read that Qobuz will be available in Canada in May, can you confirm this on your end? I currently use Tidal, but will definitely give it a try if it is true.

Re: The amazing Lumin P-1 is now the Heart of my system.
