Lumin U2 Mini Audiophile Network Music Player

Following in the footsteps of one of our most popular models, LUMIN U2 Mini introduces our all-new processing system, delivering greater flexibility and future-proofing. Capable of upsampling and downsampling all the way from 44.1kHz to 384kHz/DSD256 and supporting playback of DSD512, LUMIN U2 MINI is the perfect streaming partner for your DAC.

Completely new processing hardware and software deliver improved features and increased resampling flexibility while retaining all the musicality that was noted in so many outstanding U1 Mini reviews. Key hardware features carried over from U1 Mini include the quad clocking system and 5 different digital outputs with USB now capable of up to DSD512!

The new model is also finished in a new silky surfacing process taken from our high-end P1 that is less susceptible to finger marks and easier to clean.

Lumin U2 Mini

29 January 2023 | John

I’ve had my eye on this product for some time. The sound quality it produces is excellent, it is ultra simple to set up, and it is extremely versatile. I particularly like the upscaling it offers. Previously I had a Quad CD player which upscaled from 44.1kbps to double that, but the Lumin will upscale (or downscale if you prefer) over a very wide range, as well as convert 16 bit to 24 bit. I use it with Qobuz, which is excellent for HD music files to start with. I already had a quality DAC, so couldn’t see the point in paying again for digital to analogue converters in a streaming box. Altogether I am delighted with this product and the sound I get out of it.
