I also received my unit yesterday. After running the Lumin for a few days Aries fees a bit clunky at times, but the general impression is positive.
The things I don't like so far...
- Linn Kazoo refuses to work with Aries
- Adding sons to queue requires several steps
- Internet radio not using TuneIt. You have to enter the radio station urls manually
- The TuneIt radio from my AssetUPnP does not seem to work. It works with Lumin though.
- Airplay requires to be turned on from the remote in order to work. Lumin is detected by the computer and if the output is selected from the computer, it'll switch to it automatically.
- You can't turn it on from the Lightning DS, but have to use a remote.
- At times it feels slow taking orders or starting to play a song. Once it gets going it's ok though.
But it sounds good, looks and feels ok and I'm sure the software will evolve with time.
