Pros and Trade-offs

Your choice fundamentally comes down to involvement. If you enjoy the building process and want maximum control over mounting style, layout, and components, the Mek Studio Geometry70 kit is the superior platform.

Consider the Geometry70 a project and the Lumino a finished product.
