Lumin U2X Transport - Flagship-Level Digital Output
The Lumin U2X isn’t just another transport, it’s a precision instrument built to elevate your DAC and source chain into something extraordinary. Designed for purists who already own excellent DACs, it delivers unmatched fidelity, timing, and build quality so you hear your music with clarity, power, and lifelike realism.
Why the U2X Stands Apart
-
Transport-first engineering
Built using the same solid billet CNC chassis as Lumin’s flagship X1, with a dedicated external dual-toroidal linear power supply. Everything in its design serves fidelity: isolation, strength, and minimal interference. -
Ultra-high resolution support
Native playback of DSD512 and PCM up to 768kHz, plus up/down-sampling options (PCM384 / DSD256), ensures your system can handle the finest recordings without compromise. -
Advanced clock and USB output
Includes 10 MHz clock input & output for synchronizing with external clocks, and a dedicated isolated USB audio output so the digital signal leaving the transport is as clean and stable as possible. -
Clean networking & volume control
Fibre network input to reduce “noise from the network,” dual network interfaces, and built-in Leedh Processing lossless digital volume control for fine control without damaging resolution.
Tech You Can Hear
| What You Hear | Why It Happens |
|---|---|
| Improved timing, tighter bass | Dual-toroidal external power supply + strong clock design |
| Ultra-clean backgrounds, no hiss or buzz | Isolated USB output + solid billet chassis shielding of internal circuitry |
| Clarity in high-res recordings | Native DSD512 + PCM768 support |
| Seamless integration of storage & outputs | Multiple USB ports + fibre & RJ45 networking + AES/EBU / Optical / Coax outputs |
| Flexible system scaling | 10 MHz clock I/O for master/slave sync with other digital components |

Why Audio Two Recommends the U2X
If you already own a reference DAC and want to maximize what you're hearing—this is the transport that unlocks the next level. The U2X gives you precision timing, ultra-quiet power, and flexibility to integrate beautifully into serious hi-fi chains. Paired with the right DAC, the difference between “very good” and “jaw-dropping” becomes audible.
