LUMIN X2 Reviews

The Absolute Sound have published their fantastic review of LUMIN X2 while also sharing experiences of LUMIN L2 Music Library.

During the review, Neil Gader states:

...for Lumin everything up to this point has been prologue to the X2.

The Lumin X2 excels in an almost clairvoyant ability to communicate the lifelike silences in a venue, the musical rests and pauses, the decay of a note, the moments when players and audience alike are taking a breath.

...as if hearing that piece of music for the first time through a fresh set of ears. Rediscovery.

it exuded a tingly presence factor, a centeredness and poise that elevated the physical and tactile to a higher level

The sheer musicality and naturalism of the Lumin X2 blows past the data and transcends commonly quoted stats...

The X1 has been surpassed in every way by the new X2

I don’t know what could make this listening experience better.

The Lumin app makes setting up the player simple and using it a pleasure.

It was a bit of a shock to go back to my own components

During the review, Hajime Sakaki states:

Overall, X2 is a wonderful remake that truly makes you feel like the wait has been worth it.

Considering the soaring prices of products, this unit offers outstanding value, even in the unique high-end category. I have no hesitation in calling the X2 ‘one of the world’s best network players.’

High Fidelity have published their review of LUMIN X2, presenting it with their coveted 'Gold Fingerprint' award!

During the review, Wojciech Pacuła states:

The X2 combines saturation with speed, beautifully nuanced soundscapes and combining this with clear shaping of instrument bodies. We get a beautiful, wide and very deep soundstage with very low bass. Listen to the double bass from "Autumn Leaves" by AROOJ AFTAB, and you'll know what I mean.

That's why we listen to music with the Lumin X2 every time as if we were hearing it for the first time. Because it's surprising and interesting . Surprising because it's different, and interesting because it has so much energy and desire to play that we want to be a part of it.

An excellent product, one of the best complete file players currently on the market. And certainly the best Lumin has ever produced. From us, GOLD FINGERPRINT.
