Background information
The LUMIN U2 Mini is a high-end network player that combines advanced audio technology with a sleek, minimalist design. Designed with the expertise of a dedicated team at LUMIN, it utilizes high-quality aluminum materials for the enclosure, providing superior vibration damping. Internally, the U2 Mini offers carefully selected components for optimal signal integrity, including precisely designed internal wiring. The design philosophy revolves around pure, uncompressed sound quality. Manufacturing methods focus on durability and precision, although specific sourcing information is limited.
Brand history
In 2012, LUMIN introduced the world’s first network player capable of playing DSD files. After two years of development and hundreds of hours of critical listening, this product was launched with a single forum post. Since then, LUMIN has expanded its lineup to nine models, ranging in price points. All products share a focus on natural music playback, continuous software development and a seamless streaming experience. In recent years, LUMIN has added support for services such as Roon, MQA and Spotify. In addition, the company has introduced features such as Leedh Processing, a digital volume control technology. LUMIN develops hardware, firmware and software internally, allowing for rapid implementation of new features.

An AES/EBU cable can be used for professional transmission of digital audio signals. AES3 was developed in a collaboration between the Audio Engineering Society (AES) and the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). An AES3 signal can carry two channels of PCM audio through various transfer media, including balanced cable, unbalanced cable, and optical fiber cable.

Optical input, interference-free and therefore proven to be the better option with some dacs, although they are often limiting in bitrate (yet there are dacs that let in up to 24 bit/192 kHz). The cable used is hugely important we can report, we’d be happy to let you assess these differences.

Optical

SPDIF is the abbreviation for Sony/Philips Digital Interface Format. (Nice that we, as a small country, have had influence there!) It is a standard for the transmission of a digital signal between, for example, a streamer or CD drive to dac. The cable used makes quite a difference in playback. A standard cable shows mostly a messy and abundant low, and the middle and high sludge into a mess. There are many who dispute this. Be skeptical, but there has to be a time for evaluation.

SPDIF

The BNC connector (in full Bayonet-Neill-Concelman connector) has a bayonet connection (rotary system) that requires a pin on the male side that attaches to the female side using a spring. This prevents the two components from becoming loose. There are manufacturers who consider this the only good coaxial connection. Pure adapters available in the shop!

BNC

Surely a streamer is not as important as a dac? We receive that question very regularly. Well … the influence of the streamer is huge. Comparing different streamers on the same dac creates extraordinary differences. The mere transmission of zeros and ones, there can not go much wrong there, you might think… Yet! We like to let you hear the difference.

CD

De Compact Disc (CD) kwam zoals de meeste uitvindingen niet uit de lucht vallen. Na de uitvinding van de laser in 1958 werd in 1961 het eerste octrooi voor optisch leesbare schijven ingediend. In 1972 werden de eerste digitale videoplaten geïntroduceerd. Na een flop van Philips kwam de fabrikant in 1979 samen met Sony met de eerste cd, wat erop stond weten wij niet maar in 1982 kwam de eerste cd voor de markt uit, het was het album Visitors van ABBA. In dit jaar kwam de eerste speler beschikbaar en zo begon de verdrijving van de lp uit de markt. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen. Heb je cd’s, geniet er vooral nog eens van, ze hebben immers geen oneindige levensduur.

CD

Die Compact Disc (CD) kam, wie die meisten Erfindungen, nicht aus heiterem Himmel. Nach der Erfindung des Lasers im Jahr 1958 wurde 1961 das erste Patent für optisch lesbare Discs angemeldet. 1972 wurden die ersten digitalen Video-Discs eingeführt. Nach einem Flop von Philips tat sich der Hersteller 1979 mit Sony zusammen, um die erste CD auf den Markt zu bringen. Was darauf war, wissen wir nicht, aber 1982 wurde die erste CD für den Markt veröffentlicht, es war ABBAs Album Visitors. In diesem Jahr kam auch der erste Player auf den Markt und damit begann die Verdrängung der LP vom Markt. Viele warfen ihre LPs buchstäblich in den Müll… einige Besucher schrecken immer noch zurück, wenn sie uns das erzählen. Wenn Sie CDs haben, sollten Sie sie auf jeden Fall wieder genießen, denn sie haben keine unendliche Lebenserwartung.

Live music!

Versterkt of onversterkt... livemuziek is anders. De atmosfeer van een bar, club of zaal haal je niet in huis. En gelukkig ook maar! 
Voor die genen die hun comfortabele bank soms verlaten om de afslag naar een concert te nemen is het misschien leuk om deze pagina soms door te scrollen. Iedereen die een leuke tip heeft of een event wil promoten, plaatst het hier vooral, net als leuke clubs en barretjes die je ergens op de
wereld ontdekt hebt.

Soon hopefully!

We are having a great time with all the audio and we can share that feeling with most visitors. Yet sometimes there are companions who have no interest in it at all. 
Audio can be stolen from them. 
We also like to make those genes happy.

Soon hopefully!

Wir schreiben regelmäßig Antworten auf Hilfsfragen, Erklärungen zur Funktionsweise bestimmter Produkte oder technische Erklärungen zu bestimmten Themen. Wir dachten, diese könnten auch für andere nützlich sein. Deshalb stellen wir sie gerne in unser eigenes Wiki. Betrachten Sie es nicht als vollständig und perfekt, denn das ist es ganz und gar nicht. Es ist nichts weiter als eine Sammlung von Reaktionen. Wenn Sie einen Fehler entdecken, können Sie uns gerne darauf hinweisen.

CD

The Compact Disc (CD), like most inventions, did not appear out of thin air. After the invention of the laser in 1958, the first patent for optically readable disks was filed in 1961. The first digital video records were introduced in 1972. After a flop by Philips, the manufacturer, together with Sony, released the first CD in 1979. We do not know what it contained, but in 1982 the first CD was released for the market, it was the album Visitors by ABBA. In this year the first player became available and so began the elimination of the LP from the market. Many have literally thrown their LPs in the trash… we still see some visitors being disappointed when they tell us this. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen.

Live music!

Amplified or unamplified ... live music is different. You don't bring the atmosphere of a bar, club or hall into your home. And thankfully so! For those genes who sometimes leave their comfortable couches to make the exit to a concert, it might be fun to scroll through this page from time to time. Anyone who has a fun tip or wants to promote an event, please post it here especially, as well as fun clubs and bars you've discovered somewhere on the
world.
