Why LUMIN X1

Our flagship music player and its unique separate power supply are cut from solid aluminium billet for maximum rigidity and isolation performance.

LUMIN X1 became the world’s first network music player to feature optical fibre networking to provide complete isolation from network digital noise.

Flagship engineering throughout

  • Solid billet CNC chassis for maximum stiffness and isolation
  • External solid billet CNC dual-toroidal linear PSU
  • Dual ES9038PRO SABRE DACs featuring 140dB dynamic range
  • Native DSD512 & PCM768 playback
  • Dual mono design throughout maximises channel separation
  • Femto clock system with precision FPGA distribution
  • Our finest output buffer design
  • Dual mono dual stage linear regulator
  • Fibre network for complete isolation from network digital noise
  • USB digital audio output supports native DSD512
