LUMIN X2 review!

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 Absolute Sound issue 372 July/Aug 2026 is available to buy online and on newstands now!

Thank you to our US distributor Source Systems for organising this review unit.

To jest Robert. Robert zna się na muzyce. Robert słucha baaaaaaardzo dużo muzyki i od lat dzieli się swoją pasją na łamach Audiofezzowanie. Robert przez długi czas korzystał w swoim stereo z kabli Tellurium Q z serii Black i postanowił sprawdzić, czy usłyszy różnicę zamieniając je na Ultra Blue II, oraz najnowszego Silver III. Czy coś się zmieniło? Jaka jest ta zmiana? Czy jest oczywista, czy subtelna? Odpowiedzi na te pytania są dostępne od ręki, i to z ust faceta, dla którego liczy się przede wszystkim muzyka, a dopiero później sprzęt :-) Link do opinii dostępny w komentarzu pod postem. Zapraszamy.
