Lumin U2 Streamer Presentation

[@mrronenza]

Great Video ! Why the chassis is so important ? And what iPad Size reccomended ? Thanks

[@PBlaik]

Am I right in thinking the only benefit to the U1X is the power supply and case?

[@kefman99]

Did I hear correct the possibility of a eq in the processor in the future ?

[@luminmusic]

It's a much-requested feature, so we are giving it some careful thought. No promises currently.

[@cckjoejoe]

@ Lumin, Will U1X be replaced by a newer model, say U2X, soon? or it will be the last flagship model of transport with external power supply?

[@luminmusic]

I know it's annoying, but we can't really comment on future plans.

@@luminmusici am a current D2 owner, and i'm close to pulling the trigger on an X1 ... so it's true that it's annoying not to know :-) ... if you had upgrading (or trade-in) possibility for anyone with your flagship products that would be great to know and would provide a lot of confidence to potential buyer ... also it would be good to know how long you are planning to support "older" products

[@luminmusic]

@ X1 will remain our flagship player for some time. With regard to our support, we always add every feature we can to our older players wherever it's technically possible. For example, we have just begun investigative work into potentially adding Plex support to our very first player launched 10 years ago.

@@luminmusic thanks and good to hear ... so i'll certainly be getting the X1 soon 🙂

Is it a possibility that the U1X will eventually be able to upsample to DSD256 and PCM 384? It seems that this an important disadvantage compared to the U2.

[@luminmusic]

Thank you very much for sharing!

Hello lumin, so do I get usb sound from lumin u2 mini, or the 2 usb are just for external storage? Thank you

[@luminmusic]

@@alialamri8525 Yes, USB on all our transports is for audio (U1 / U1 Mini / U2 / U2 Mini) output to a DAC. The difference with U2 is that there are slightly fewer electronics in the chain as we have a dedicated USB audio output which doesn't need to auto-detect whether storage/remote control/DAC has been connected.

[@luminmusic]

@@alialamri8525 Yes! USB is for digital audio output as well as other uses on U2 Mini. On U2, there is an additional direct-coupled USB which has fewer electronic components in the chain, but they all support the same bitrates, etc

Can this pull from a DLNA server?
