Play time! a nice array of digital outputs including Coax (RCA and BNC), Toslink, 2x USB (can also be used for attaching USB Storage), and AESīut the Lumin U2 Mini has a much more extensive feature set up its proverbial sleeve. The last step was to tell Roon to play through the Lumin which had already appeared, automatically, in the Roon App. What this means for me, since I already have Roon running on my network, is the U2 Mini set up process consisted of connecting it to my network (Ethernet), connecting it to my DAC (AES), plugging it in, and powering it on. The other item on my Must Have List for any streamer is support for Roon, and I’m happy to report that the Lumin U2 Mini, like all Lumin streamers, is Roon Ready. Poof!įor some users, like me, that’s pretty much all we want from a streamer-Ethernet in, digital audio out. Just like an ice bullet-by the time music comes out of the speakers, there’s no trace of the Lumin to be found. Or don’t hear it as the case may be.Īs you may have surmised, the Lumin U2 Mini passes a digital music signal through its input, innards, and output without imparting any discernible fingerprint. The thing about not hearing something is we don’t know what that sounds like until we hear it. In my experience, not hearing an audio component can equate to hearing more of music’s finer points-finer fine-grained detail, increased image specificity, more natural timbre, and a greater sense of scale. The less you ‘hear’ a streamer, the better. Perhaps more than any other audio component, you want a streamer to get out of the way.

Whether you use a MadeMan regimen or a Lumin regimen, it is common for you to see results in 3 to 6 weeks. Lumin, on the other hand, would require you to use a cleanser, moisturizer, toner, serum, oil, and eye cream every day, an exfoliator, face mask, and eye mask weekly, and a pore strip biweekly. If we expand our view and examine what a week with these products would look like, MadeMan would still only require that you use your cleanser/shaving cream and moisturizer daily. On a daily basis, a MadeMan skincare regimen will take two minutes or less to complete, while a Lumin skincare regimen takes at least four minutes. These methods definitely pay off, with MadeMan receiving an average review of 4.7/5. Rather than including a ton of unhealthy chemicals like other skincare brands, MadeMan packs its products with the highest quality ingredients available. MadeMan prides itself in its use of all-natural ingredients and minimal use of artificial ingredients. Lumin’s 12 products contain, on average, 43 ingredients. MadeMan products are water-based and contain on average 20 ingredients. This not only applies to prices but to ingredients, as well. MadeMan products typically last an entire month longer than Lumin’s do. This investment is even better when you consider each product’s shelf life. Investing in Lumin’s products is, on average, already more expensive than buying MadeMan’s cleanser, shaving gel, and moisturizer, with Lumin costing about $60 a month and MadeMan $42. MadeMan will only ever recommend that men invest in The Re(Set) Collection because that is all that men need to maintain healthy skin. Meanwhile, Lumin will typically recommend that they purchase somewhere between four and six products.
