Practically, “As with all Lumins, it offers a lossless digital volume control, allowing your DAC to be connected straight into power amps, no preamp needed if you don’t have multiple sources.” As our DAC was onboard the Hegel, I used the Hegel remote for volume and mute duties.

The volume could be cranked with no deleterious effects. The Paradigm Personas can handle just about anything but the sound the Lumin was making was so immersive and beautiful at all levels, I didn’t feel the need to boost the volume too much to feel the music’s full effect.
