Iām patiently waiting for the Airlens and streaming from my Intel NUC for now. I have a credit at PSA from the MK1 trade-in that I intend to use as much of as possible.
Iām not in any rush.
@jamesh, please let me know when the beta units are ready to ship.
Finding black Aurenders is tough. They like silver also!
There are two on Audiogon. Going to buy some more power cords, maybe upgrade the MkIl tranny.
Who knows, there might even be a Master fuse in my future. Itās weird that tweaks are the safe purchase right now.
Are you really sure? I was thinking exactly the same, then Vince hypnotized me in some way and my wife has noticed that I was continuously repeating all night long ādCSā¦ dCSā¦ dCSā while sleeping. Once waked up I didnāt recall exactly my dreams, so I started to think āMSBā¦ MSBā¦ MSBā.
Be aware, Vinceās mental influence on your brain equilibrium is terrific!
I stopped going to audiophile shows, and the nearby dealers have gone out of business in the past few years. 
If I could resist this forum then I should be safe from the big rabbit holes (Hah, you and Vince are turning into big ones).
My solution is to spend more on vacation so I will not keep thinking of audio upgrade. We just planned another trip to Lake Louis, Canada in mid May for a week, and my wife loves the idea. I promised her no forum reading on vacation this time. 
I think we are living parallel lives. My wife and have recently gone on, or planning to go on, trips that well exceed my selfish audio needs but Iām mostly ok with that. You should like Lake Louise. That was our honeymoon trip many moon ago, with stays in Banff and Jasper.
Already seen that scene: a man on a beach with a tablet in his handsā¦ reading and dreaming about USB cablesā¦ good luck!
Ditto re Banff Honeymoon trip. Luggage was delayed and did not go out for the first couple daysā¦
I canāt stop chucking. I saw this and all I could think of was āthe burglar of Banff!ā, for those who get the reference.
But, since it was your honeymoonā¦no luggage/no big dealā¦
No comments from me about small furry animals stolen by Ze Burglar of Banff
We always wanted to go there. After all these years we finally will see this gorgeous park!
Hike up Tea House above Lake Louise.
Great idea. An easy hike. Forgot to mention that it is a must to stay at the hotel there. The only one on the lake when I was there.
Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is the only hotel on the lake. We will stay in a lake view room, and will dine at their fundue restaurant. We will also stay at Bniff for a couple of nights too. Hikeing around the lakes seem like a great idea.
We will fly to Calgary, and it is less than a two hours drive to there, I think.
We spent a Christmas holiday here. Magical is an understatement. Horse drawn sleigh rides, a Christmas tree in our suite, Santa visit for the kids, food as good as anywhere I have eaten, and the absolutely the best staff. It was awesome.
N20 would be my choice, streamer/server one box solution with great app. I havenāt had to use it but they have live customer service right on the app. They can login and fix anything if issues ever happen. You would have to audition both but Im willing to bet the N200 vs Lumin 2 is a fairer comparison and have a gut feeling the N20 is in a different league. Iām a Aurender fan!
Hi - noticed this thread and wanted some advice. I should be getting the Mk2 in the next several weeks along with the Lumin U2 mini. I currently have the Lumin P1 being fed by fiber optics. My plan is to upgrade the power supply on the U2 mini down the road. I have had 3 Lumin streamer or streamer / DAC comboās. Also had an Auralic Streamer, both brands to my ears had great sound quality and the functionality of there apps a huge plus. So, finally, my question, I stream 99 % of the time Qobuz - DSD isnāt a priority, PS Audio when I asked said in this scenario AES was the way to go, they didnāt direct me to USB which the Lumin has or point me toward a streamer with Is2 capabilities. I assume PS knows there gear but wanted to get some opinions, thoughts.
With MK2 DAC, many like USB link better than I2S. There are more great USB cables available, and with the right one the SQ will sound superior; like in my case.
