WHY LUMIN X2
After years of dedicated in-house R&D, LUMIN X2 introduces our brand-new discrete DAC!
The introduction of a fully discrete DAC architecture marks a milestone in LUMIN’s digital evolution.
By building the converter from individually selected components, every aspect of the digital-to-analogue process can be precisely optimised — from circuit topology and power delivery to clocking and signal integrity.
Tailored to our streaming engine, this cohesive and stable foundation sets the stage for the next chapter of our flagship design.

DUAL LUMIN DISCRETE DAC
A new milestone for LUMIN!
A new core
This fully custom DAC sits at the heart of a redesigned system. Circuit layout, power management, and clocking have all been carefully tuned for maximum coherence, ensuring exceptional precision in network audio reproduction.
Controlled Signal Path
Designed from the ground up, each stage of the DAC has been optimised for component placement and routing to minimise interference and preserve channel separation.
Low-Noise Operation
Custom circuitry and refined power management reduce electrical noise and interference, allowing the DAC to operate within a highly controlled and stable environment.
Reduced Timing Errors
The discrete architecture enables direct implementation of clocking and conversion stages without intermediate frequency dividers, supporting precise timing and reduced jitter throughout the signal path.
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

Built-in Optical Network
- An industry-first with LUMIN X1 and now spreading through the range
- Provides complete isolation from the rest of the network
- Industry-standard SFP for maximum compatibility
- Additionally, dual network ports mean that you can connect other equipment (e.g. NAS)
Builds on the massive success of X1
The reputation of LUMIN X1 quickly spread worldwide, establishing itself as the streaming reference for countless music lovers.
With numerous awards and glowing 5-star reviews, it solidified LUMIN’s position as a global leader in streaming technology.
Now, LUMIN X2 raises the bar again — enhancing every aspect of the X1 to shine even more light on the music.
All the usual LUMIN refinements
- LUMIN is always evolving. The full LUMIN range benefits from our programme of continuous development, allowing you to relax in the knowledge that wherever possible we’ll bring you the latest streaming technologies.
- Unlike many manufacturers, LUMIN have in-house expertise to cover the full software and hardware development process from top to bottom, resulting in lightning-fast implementation of new features.
- The last 3 major releases have seen the introduction of Qobuz Connect, KKBox, QQMusic, Audirvāna Certification, TIDAL Max high-res FLAC support, Plex server support, additional free FLAC Lossless Radio Stations, improved Spotify Connect sound quality, JPlay iOS app support, and much more – all absolutely free of charge for all users!
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…
Some services may require a subscription payment.
Lossless volume control for all LUMIN players.
An innovative new digital volume adjustment algorithm that eliminates rounding errors is now included (at no additional cost) on all LUMIN players!
