Why LUMIN

Fidelity Magazine Review Quote

Late in 2012, after two years of development and hundreds of hours of critical listening, the World's first DSD-capable streamer was launched quietly with a single post on a web forum. Since then, news of LUMIN Audiophile Network Music Players has spread to all corners of the globe, with awards and reviews coming from the industry's most respected websites and magazines. Computer Audiophile described our first product as "the network player by which all others should be judged", and 6moons' Joël Chevassus described it as "the most exciting audio experience I've yet had".

In the 12 years since, the LUMIN range is expanding to include nine models covering a range of price points. All our products share the same focus on natural music-making, continuous software development, effortless setup, and a seamless, stable, and immersive streaming experience.

During this journey, we’ve been privileged to earn exceptional reviews and awards. Excerpts are included throughout this website, whilst full reviews for each model can always be found in our extensive reviews section.

From MQA to DSD, FLAC to WAV, LUMIN can play all the high-resolution formats you could ever want.

Have a thirst for new music? No problem – LUMIN comes with native support for TIDAL, Qobuz, Spotify and is AirPlay-compatible, giving you access to tens of millions of songs.

Take control

The LUMIN App is created in harmony with the LUMIN hardware to deliver the most intuitive and visually rich way to browse, select and play your music collection.

It represents our vision of how to make music browsing and playback easy, visual, and tactile.

"...a slick custom app that handles both control of music playback and configuration of hardware settings... it puts some other rival streaming apps to shame."

Review quotes

Musical performance

We put a huge amount of effort into sourcing the highest-grade matching components, creating truly balanced circuits, designing cases that shield from interference, etc, etc, but it's only important if the end result effectively communicates the intentions of the artist.

Notably, the common thread in every published and consumer review of all LUMIN products is musicality.
