My home audio project over Labor Day Weekend was to install my Lumin D2 purchased from Upscale. The system was complimented by a Qobuz subscription and new Wireless VPN. I am thrilled, Kevin your people were fantastic to work with, a great experience.
I recently compared the D2 and T2 and T2 literally blew me away, definitely on my bucket list
Great video! Love your no bullshit style,. and youre right about the song!! Question... can I use the T2 straight to a power amp? Such as the Cambridge Audio Edge W ??
nice, awesome keep sharing them good job thanks for this
Hope you guys are back in action soon! In the big store.
Without Doubt... Kashmir. Period.
My favorite Led Zep song is a cover of Robert Johnson’s “Traveling Riverside Blues”...best rock song is hard to say, but Layla is up there for me
AC/DC - T.N.T. Thx for the shirt upfront ;-)
Whole Lotta love
"Since I've Been Loving You" Led Zep III. I am an XXL. :)
how does this compare to the IFI Zen Stream. i am having big issues with it.
Kevin, I would love to see your impression of the new Lumin T3 and your opinion of using an LPS... Keep the great Lumin videos coming on!
how about the D2? whats the msrp? i think 6k? D2 2.5k how would this compare to the G1?
Does T2 have fiber optic input like X1?
Think you want me to say: Whole Lotta' Love. My personal favs are: The Rover, Misty Mountain Hop and Ulysses's Last Stand. P.S. Good to see you "back on the horse"...
How about a review of the U2 Mini?
Just seen this video and you mention at $25 box you sell for connecting a Lan cable since this device doesn’t have an antenna. What is your catalog part number?

LZ- Rock and Roll! ...was gonna say: Rock and Roon! ....Just sayin'.
With you saying its got a lot of blues in it...i would say Led Zeppelin - "When the levee breaks" \m/ and I would love that t-shirt ...Love your videos 🙏
Led Zeppelin - Rock and Roll clearly its Led Zep and has the name integrated into your question.
Kevin, tough challenge! So many Zep tunes steeped in the blues. It is told that when Robert Plant and Jimmy Page first got together at Page's house, Plant showed up with an arm full of blues records he liked, and the two of them bonded over those blues jams. I am way late to this thread but I am going to guess the 'Lemon Song' because it is a version of a song originally done by Willie Dixon, and Willie wrote many of the songs at Chess Records for the many late, great bluesman. Anyway, been fun. lol.
yaay a new vid
Kevin, if ever there is a question concerning time invested in producing youtube videos. Fear not, you separate yourself from others with your depth of knowledge, honesty, and energy. The brick and mortars are a dying breed, and you've proven that it's possible to bridge the gap!!! I only wish your store was in Dallas. Oh yeah, Led Zeppelin, Stairway to Heaven...My size is medium husky :)

I have the T2 Lumin and it is plugged into my Anthem AVM 90 via Red Dawn XLR analog cables. Am I losing the benefit of the Lumin DAC by connecting this way. My dealer told me this is the best way to hook it up. He said I am not losing anything by using the DAC of the AVM 90. I use Qobuz to stream and I also stream my CD's via a network hard drive. It all sounds pretty great, I think it is close between streaming my converted CD's and streaming Qobuz. The sound is a little different but I have a hard time deciding which I prefer. I previously was using Bluesound Node 2i and the Lumin is night and day better. Thanks

If you're using the XLR analog outputs on the T2, you're using the Lumin DAC, which is the way to go. Send us a message on our website chat or to info at upscaleaudio dot com. One of our digital nerds will be happy to help with more information!

Why can't we have both 😥 Long live CD 💿🎶
I would have guessed 'Whole lot of Love' - you know by whom ;¬D - I saw it done live in 1970. Great times - Greetings to one and All
Thunderstruck AC/DC love it 😎😎😎😎 Try that on your tube amp Kevin 👍👍👍👍
“You Shook Me” LZ 3XL I’m am built like a Led Zepplin
Le Zeppelin " Heartbreaker" would be my next choice.
Probably "Stairway", maybe "Dazed", could be "Fool In the Rain". Gotta be from the first (or maybe the second or third album). Waitin for the videos on the new Primas~!

Anyone have the T2? Any feedback?
My vote for greatest rock song of all time is "Stairway to Heaven" by Lead Zepplin. I wear a large.
stairway to heaven
"Since I've Been Loving You" Led Zeppelin
Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin
PS....how about you do a little vid from Axpona, for all of us that can't be there to see the set-up....just sayin.....
Lumin or Auralic anyone try them A/B ? ? ?
Led Zeppelins "When the Levee Breaks".

Yes
Stairway to Heaven
People can argue about what the greatest rock song of all time is..... but I hope none would argue with your assertion that Led Zeppelin were the greatest band. They changed the landscape of rock music with their hypnotic mix of rock and blues. They were all extremely talented musicians in their own right and their live performances from the early 70s remain legendary. My picks are How Many more times.. Dazed and Confused... or Whole lot of Love...... but it could be any one of a dozen other tracks
Question: Do your sales people work on a commission basis?

Well, if you are talking Led Zeppelin--it has to be from LZ II: My guess is Ramble On.

I have Audirvana Plus ($75) on iMac decodes MQA and sends 384/32 stream to BubbleUPnP for Android (free app). Now I need to pass on this to Roku 3 which is HDMI to AVR, but don't know how. Should I use Chromecast Audio? Will BubbleUPnP see Chromecast?

Thunder by Imagine Dragon...hahha. Needs to expand his listening repertoire.
Led Zeppelin - Bring it on Home it's also 4:20 long
“Like a Rolling Stone” by Bob Dylan
led zeppelin stairway to heaven I am a XXL thanks ;)
D'yer mak'er - Led Zeppelin. The largest size you have, thanks Kevin!
"Thunder" does have a good video. I love to watch aliens dancing. I have zero interest in streaming music. I'll stick with my CDs and SACDs. Travelling Riverside Blues is one of my favorite songs from Led Zeppelin. I'm a big dude. I hope you have that t-shirt in 3XL.
When the Levee Breaks...Zeppelin
Come on feel the Noize by Quiet Riot
Rolling stones - Red door
Actually I do care to be right because I would like that T-shirt but I’m not going to rack my brain trying to figure it out

About this woman who had to pay to buy her way to heaven. I think she took some stairs to get there. Song was by Led Zeppelin.

Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin. Gotta be the greatest rock song for me. Loving your reviews so far.

Cd players are not on their way out. Streamers are inconsistent shit. Emotiva makes great cd players and if you have a blu ray player at home or 4k player... That's fine for a cd player. I have the pioneer udp lx500 which is one of the best players ever made if not the best. It has a 22lb steel plate under it to minimize vibrations and it is smoother than butter.
Imagine Dragons is the new Nickleback! You said Zep was the band and if so I would have gone with Kashmir But for you with Zep I'm going to go with "Whole Lotta Love" My overall choice for best Rock N Roll song of all time, The Stooges "I Wanna Be Your Dog"
Dazed and confused, led zeplin
Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin.
