Lumin U2
Prefer to hear it first? We can arrange a demonstration in your own home across Suffolk, Essex and the surrounding areas, with set-up by people who actually listen.
Overview & specification
The next generation Streaming transport
An all-new LUMIN for DAC owners; LUMIN U2 focusses on pure digital.
After the huge success of our sweetspot price/performance LUMIN T3, LUMIN U2 brings the same design philosophy to a transport for the first time.
Taking chassis construction methods, linear power supply design and dual-network from the multi-award-winning LUMIN P1, the all-new LUMIN U2 brings high-end digital right into the heart of the LUMIN range.
