Given some news media suggestion of possible change of US tariff for Hong Kong (where I work), I encourage US customers who are considering to purchase a Lumin to place your order ASAP.
 
Not wanting to relay unconfirmed information or comment on social or political issue, I'd respectfully request interested parties to google US Hong Kong special status tariff.
 
My understanding is that, currently, Chinese electronics are subject to a 25% Duty rate heading in to the US. Are you telling me that items made in Hong Kong fall under a different Duty rate?
 
And what if the item is made in hong kong but isn’t coming directly from hong kong?

Ex, shipping from germany to the US?
 
I don't think anybody has an answer to that question except maybe the President. You can be sure he won't give any advance warning if/when it happens.

Peter,

First and most importantly - I am sorry, disappointed and disgusted to hear this news.

If I might ask, how soon and how much do you expect this development to affect the pricing on units sold and shipped to U.S. customers?

Thanks,

Jeff
 
I replaced my S1 with an X1 a year ago. You'll be very happy!

Thinking about upgrading D2 to T2, but if funds were tighter, I’d happily live with the D2 for years. That’s how good the Lumin products are, even the “entry level” streamer/DAC model.

End game in a couple of years: X1 (or maybe X2???)
