I am going to try to find some time this fall to do another round of comparison or streaming via wifi/Ethernet to direct pc file playback via usb to spdif and perhaps even then throw in an oldie but goodie cd transport to see if I’ve lost anything for convenience. As I recall now, one of the benefits of file playback over pc was it allowed me to run room correction software that I will not available with only the CD player as the front end.I will also take the plunge into streaming one of these days, it's inevitable.
I like the idea of removing my PC from the chain completely, but also wonder about sound quality changes.
I'm in no rush however, but that said, the next well-priced Lumin that comes along...
