Bryston BDP-1/2 vs Lumin

[Design Audio Video]

Has anyone compared the two units? I guess it would really depend on the DAC being used with the Bryston. Just curious if I'm missing out on performance by using Bryston and Accuphase DAC

I have the BDP-1 coupled to the Auralic Vega DAC. This DAC is an upgrade over the Bryston BDA-2. I love this combo, even more than I did before. It will easily hold its own against anything comparable.

The advantage to the Lumin is it is a single box player. The disadvantage is you cannot upgrade the DAC.

The advantage to the Bryston is it only does one thing, and does it well. The disadvantage is you need to buy a DAC, another power cord, and a digital IC.
