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
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"...
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 just received my Lumin T2 today (4/15/19) from Upscale Audio. It's Beautiful. I will let you know about the SQ after burn in. But thus far, I am loving it.
Thanks, Jerome!
I think I might try this one over the Aurelic
@@alvidrez7956 the Auralic is 2695!
did you listen to the G1?
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 🙏
Whole Lotta love
nice, awesome
keep sharing them good job
thanks for this
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
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 ??
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!
"Since I've Been Loving You" Led Zep III. I am an XXL. :)
AC/DC - T.N.T. Thx for the shirt upfront ;-)
Since I've been loving you.
Hope you guys are back in action soon! In the big store.
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.
Without Doubt...
Kashmir.
Period.
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~!
Stairway has been played out and over rated. more folk rock
how about the D2? whats the msrp? i think 6k? D2 2.5k how would this compare to the G1?
Whole lotta love, L Z
Led Zeppelin. "Babe I'm gonna leave you"
Kevin, how does this compair to the Mytech Brooklyn Bridge?
Thunderstruck AC/DC love it 😎😎😎😎 Try that on your tube amp Kevin 👍👍👍👍
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'.
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!
Ok, thank you
Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin. Gotta be the greatest rock song for me. Loving your reviews so far.
how does this compare to the IFI Zen Stream. i am having big issues with it.
Whole lotta love LZ
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
Since I've been loving you..no question
Led Zeppelin - Rock and Roll clearly its Led Zep and has the name integrated into your question.
yaay a new vid
Why can't we have both 😥 Long live CD 💿🎶
“You Shook Me” LZ 3XL I’m am built like a Led Zepplin
Le Zeppelin " Heartbreaker" would be my next choice.
Since I’ve been lovin’ you
Does T2 have fiber optic input like X1?
Since I've been lovin you
MC 5, kick out the jam,
Yes, of course the live version
My vote for greatest rock song of all time is "Stairway to Heaven" by Lead Zepplin. I wear a large.
How about a review of the U2 Mini?
stairway to heaven
Since I've Been Loving You - Led Zeppelin
WINNER WINNER WINNER!!!!!!! Post a link to our contact page and we'll get you a shirt!!!!
Kevin Deal oh that’s great thank you. I’m an Upscale Tube customer so that will be a cool thing. I’ll be in touch :-)
Kevin Deal just sent a message to your website contact page. Hope that was the correct thing to do.
As soon as he said LZ and blues I knew exactly what it was! Great friggin song.
What about Aurender N10 competitor?
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
Led Zeppelins "When the Levee Breaks".
That is what I would say too.
Yes
Stairway to Heaven
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.....
How does it compare to A1?
I like this dude - he’s passionate about what he does
Baby I'm gonna Leave you By the Zep gets my vote.
MrCatalysis101 WINS!!!!!! Since I've Been Loving You!!!!!!! (others guessed it too...this guy was first) Send us your info through our website contact page!!!!
Greatest rock song - wish you were here by Incubus. You’re welcome 😉
"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.
Johnny Be Good!!!!
Stairway to heaven Led Zeppelin
How many more times
Well, if you are talking Led Zeppelin--it has to be from LZ II: My guess is Ramble On.
Plex server > Chromecast Audio via optical cable > Emotiva DAC = Amazing sound. Didn't cost $4,,500.
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?

There are companies out there Kevin that use commercial standard components and will last many many years of enjoyable listening. Chord Electronics are one such company that design and build their own electronics and very well indeed. I believe as other HiFi enthusiasts believe that CD is here to stay and that can only be a good thing in my eyes. As for the greatest rock song of all time. That's a very difficult question to answer, as each individual song has it's merits and argument to be the greatest.People have asked me many times who is the greatest guitarist and I say all of them, as they all have a unique style. Based on my emotions when listening to it just for the guitar solo, one such song would be Hotel California. Others would be All along the Watchtower, November Rain, Riff Raff by AC/DC. For me it doesn't have to come from what would be considered a huge band. I'm going to pick one for this competition and it is Hotel California. XL for me please and keep up the great work Kevin. Your channel is fun to watch.
Led Zeppelin- traveling Riverside Blues
Dazed and confused, led zeplin
