What processor are you using?

I don't understand your question, what do you mean with processor? I use the BDP-3 and I on't know what processor is in it.

First impression after 24 hours:

- Much better sound then the BDP-1 => more depth and width and a more subtle low noise.
- Much quicker with updating the HDD then with the BDP-1
- I have a bad network and when the network is gone, I have to restart mine router eachtime. With the BDP-1 I also had to reset the player but with the BDP-3 NOT :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
- The BDP-3 get hot, really hot almost as hot as mine SP2, this is not positive because I have a little daughter here and now I have to watch to see she don't touch the device. Gladly see is 8 years old so she already listen a little  :wink:

Keep you posted.

Thanks Hoiman for your feedback! I think you're one of the first BDP3 users in Europe, for sure the first one on Audiocircle  :D

do you control the BDP3 with Ipad or Android? using manic moose or a different app?

many thanks for sharing your experience

No no permanently. I choose a playlist and then I shut down the laptop and just listen.

Ok now I'm understand. I use the Bryston BDA-3 (via USB) and this goes (analog) to the Bryston SP2.

Well then you shoul have a pretty good analog section in the SP2. Just keep playing the  BDP3 until in breaks in and at some point the outputs on the BDP3 will distinguish themselves.

Do you use an upgraded power supply with the Lumin?

I just connected my BDP2 to my SP3 by USB, and I got the same results. The BDP2 using the AES (XLR) balanced digital output to the SP3 sounds better than the USB connection. The balanced digital output has a punchier sound and the frequency extremes sound better. The differences could be identified immediately.

I can see why. I forgot to mention the USB sound was somewhat dryer sounding. :duh:
