Lumin X1

World-class digital audio broadcasting.

In just a few years, the digital specialists from LUMIN have manifested themselves as being "CUTTING EDGE" when it comes to digital audio communication.
Peter Lie and his dedicated team of specialists have set the bar exceptionally high from the start, in order to gain traction with the world's audiophiles.
This must be said to have succeeded to that extent...Few network players have received such great reviews and words of praise along the way as the products from LUMIN.

Right from the start, Peter Lie and his team knew what they were up against, namely a collection of serious and well-founded manufacturers who had already won large market shares and at the same time a respected place in the minds of buyers.
This kind of thing is very difficult to deal with, unless of course you know that you are able to produce a product that is so much better than the competition and at the same time at a significantly lower price.
The extremely well-reviewed LUMIN T2 network player is, if anything, proof that this has been completely successful.
It was basically manufactured with the sole purpose of crushing the competition..completely.
Whether this is the case is up to the individual ear, one thing is certain when you google the products from LUMIN.. Here, to a rare degree, a deep recognition and respect has arisen among reviewers from all over the world in an ultra short time, when you if you take LUMIN's relatively short existence into account, this is no less than an achievement of dimensions.

From the start, Lumin has endeavored to be innovative, both in terms of sound quality and firmware upgrades.
Among other things LEEDH PROCESSING volume control which is based on a special algorithm that audibly gives a more natural and significantly better sound.
This also means that LUMIN network players can act as a preamplifier if you want. A good one of its kind.
In addition, the LUMINS App can be mentioned, which to a rare extent is functional and well thought out.
A really good command center for playing our beloved music.

As usual, when we talk about HIGH-END, the sound quality comes first, and fortunately this is where LUMIN has the upper hand.
To that extent, Lumin have become experts in using the highly recognized Saber PRO Dac chips in their digital conversion, this together with their unrivaled expertise in digital engineering/circuitry and power supply has given LUMIN an extremely well-deserved place among demanding audiophiles worldwide.
The sound is unheard of and coherent without any kind of "digitalitis" at all.. Now you have to be a little careful when using the word ANALOG in digital contexts... but the sound from a LUMIN network player nevertheless leads the mind that way.
Trying to fully describe the sound from the LUMIN products will be a more extensive task than is good, this must be heard.
However, one thing is certain. LUMIN wins on superior raw "PERFORMANCE" in sound quality.
Even the smallest models deliver unsurpassed sound quality in the price range, but if you go just a little higher up the ranks to, for example, the LUMIN T2, you get an absolutely world-class sound that can withstand comparison with the best on the market today...and on top of that in the purchase at a price that can be paid by most enthusiasts without leaving home.
We mortals can only dream of what is longing for on the counter of musical delights when LUMIN's ultimate network player "X1" is from land.

We at the sound specialist are more than usual enthusiastic about LUMIN's musical ability, and we would therefore recommend anyone who has no experience with these fantastic sound transmitters to get acquainted with them as soon as possible.. Because life is too short for mediocre SOUND QUALITY.
