The nice thing about the Lumin P1 is I can run fiber directly from the EtherREGEN in the "remote server room" straight in to the back of the Lumin P1, and be done. No messin' around with network bridges, power supplies for network bridges, power cables for the power supplies for the network bridges, power cables for the DAC, Ethernet cables for the network bridge, USB cables for the DAC, interconnects from the DAC to the preamp, blah, blah, blah... 
Basically, with the P1, it's "one and done"! Simple is GOOD. 
Going to start out with the optical transceivers first, and then when I get a chance, I'll install the run of the new Corning fiber.
Stay tuned... |
Since this topic has slowed down, I thought I would add this here.
I have been considering the Lumin X1 in place of my Aurender N-200
I was using Roon before adding the Aurender N-200, but Aurender doesn't support Roon, whereas Lumin does.
Also I can connect the X1 optically via the EtherRegen.
Wondering if the Lumin SQ will be any better.
Thoughts?
