Appreciate it---looking forward to hearing these in person. I'm also considering moving up a notch on the IC cables. I currently have the AQ Big Sur. Are you using the Yukon and ICs for the amps?
@bluorion Yes! And I still have it in my second system. The Lumin T2 adds another level of sonic clarity and sophistication but the Node is still very enjoyable to listen to.
Did you have a Bluesound Node at one time? If so, how much of a difference did you hear when you went with the Lumin? I'm going to audition the 1Ci+ next weekend---can't wait!

Thanks---that's good to know about the 1s. My local audio dealer carries Harbeth and I really like the C7s but they are double the price of the 1s and is outside my price range but he'll work with me if I go with the 7s. If I get the 1s, I plan to put them with my second system along the short wall facing out (rectangular room). I hear they can fill up a room pretty well which is what I'd like to do. I have a TT that I can connect to the Belles but it's with my other system. I have a Node with the Belles. Thanks for the info!
@bluorion In my room the 1’s put out an enormous amount of bass. My first speakers were the 1’s. Then I got the 2ce Signature III’s and they proved to be way more speaker than my little room could handle. I then purchased Treos and never really go on with them. The 1’s have better bass output, greater slam, and are more coherent than the Treo is IMO. So I ended up buying the 1’s all over again and love them. They’re a tremendous speaker. Good luck!
Love your system! I'm thinking of getting the 1Ci+ for my second system with my Belles Aria integrated. How's the bass response---any need for a sub? I'm going to audition them next month when I go out of town.
Thanks! I recently flipped the room 90 degrees and am loving being setup on the "long" wall for this room. The other way it always felt like I was listening in a cave. The imaging is really good. It extends outside of the speaker boundaries in all directions.
