Thick aluminium walls provide even more shielding
Separate digital and analogue circuitry
Low-noise Linear Regulator
The highest quality components used throughout

COMPLETELY NEW CLOCKING CIRCUITRY

LUMIN U2X is the first LUMIN model to include 10M Clock I/O.

Two 10M clock outputs provide flexibility in synchronising multiple digital audio devices and allows for a “master” clock configuration, where one unit dictates the timing for other units. This approach can help minimize jitter by ensuring all devices are operating on a consistent and stable timing reference.

DEDICATED USB PORT FOR AUDIO OUTPUT

New dedicated isolated USB digital audio output port

Leaves two ports free for music storage and accessories

LATEST PROCESSING SYSTEM

The first LUMIN flagship to feature our fastest processor

First launched in 2022, the latest architecture provides a new foundation for LUMIN

Increased processing power and storage capacity provide greater resampling flexibility, audio processing performance and future-proofing.

Up/down sampling up to DSD256

SINGLE-BILLET CNC CHASSIS CONSTRUCTION

Like our other flagship products, LUMIN U2X is milled from a solid block of aluminium

The thick uninterrupted walls provide maximum stiffness and isolation

“The specs alone don’t tell you just how solid and well-built this hewn- from-solid pair of chunky slabs of black or silver aluminium feel in the flesh.” X1: Hi-Fi+ Issue 169

ADVANCED STREAMING SERVICES & TECHNOLOGIES

Every LUMIN player comes with support for a wide range of popular streaming services including Roon, TIDAL, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz, Qobuz Connect, Spotify, KKBox, QQMusic, FLAC Radio Stations and more…
