Run my RS250 to the PrimaLuna Evo 100 tube Dac
I have a Chord Qutest and the RME. The RS250 sounds just as good as the others. It’s a good device that needs a good bump in software simplicity

Guys, I finally received the unit and super excited. But also little disappointed. Not sure if I got a defective unit. First I went through the basic setup procedure and got it working fine. Before I connect it to my preamp, I tested it with my headphone, as soon as I plugged it in I hear distortion sound playing on and off. I also tried plug in my interconnect cable to my preamp and play it through my speaker. when I pause the music and adjust the volume knob to the max, there are lots of distortion noise. (loud) My Lumin is dead quiet. I am afraid I got a defective unit. Do any of you have this problem?
The most annoying part still the static noise. Should I call their support or just return the unit ?
I’m sorry to hear that. Definitely something is wrong with your unit. I would suggest you to contact your dealer and get it replaced.
Tom, just frustrated bro.
Totally understand.
Hope you get your replacement in no time!
Tom, I found out the problem. It is one of my tube amplifier. I guess the powerful transformer interfere the RS250. Once I moved it away next to my tube amp, the noise is gone. At least the unit is not defective. It took me long to troubleshoot the issues lol.
Great to know you finally figured it out! No wonder audiophiles spend $$$ on eliminating RF noise…
Now just enjoy your RS250 
Yes. I didn’t know the transformer from the tube amp has such large RF noise . My Lumin has no problem with it (same position as the RS250). The only fix is I need to get an isolation platform on the bottom and put RS250 on the top. That will get rid of it.
