Personally, I'd rather have a Lumin T2 for approximately the same price.

And...the Lumin has a proper ground terminal on it.

And with the release of the Shunyata Altaira grounding hubs forthcoming at some point, that's going to be important.

It's particularly important for digital components because they are specifically very prone to ground-plane noise and that noise-component is insidious for it's impact on audio quality. It impacts threshold jitter and ultimately, timing.
