Hi there I wish you all the best for this year end I would like to ask a question about the Led light behind the Lumin units: is there any reason for letting it on? Best

I have a Lumin U1 Mini. And I mostly use Roon I just discovered that when I plug my PC in USB mode directly to my USB DAC using my licenced DAC driver. I have much more abilities enabled: I can use my DAC with PCM 768k as well as DSD 512 Sound is very good too So I am wondering if it is not...

Hi there I use Roon to play to my Lumin U1 Mini and via USB to my Sony TA H1ES headphone amp/DAC. I set Roon to play at maximum PCM bitrate so Roon recognizes that my system can handle up to 32b 384k. The anomaly is that the front panel of the Lumin shows PCM 384k 32b as expected but the front...

Hi there I am tired with my Sonos Amp. Not well integrated with Roon, no real HiRes.. I would like to have a nice just-plug-speakers amp. I have my Lumin U1 Mini which is my best streamer and which makes me very confident with Lumin products. Is the Lumin M1 worth the extra price vs...

The Lumin is a really masterpiece of hardware. Really I love my u1 mini. Feeding my Sony Taz1hes via usb. And I have another master room that I think I will feed with a t2 since I have nice b&w speakers in it The funny fact is I am trying Omer Avital - Muhammad’s market (Qobuz - 24b 88.2khz)...

Hey Need to make sure of my configuration and audio skills I have my lumin u1 mini connected to my Marantz nd8006 DAC then to my Sony z1r headphones Using Roon / Meshell Ndegeocello - The spirit of music jamia (CD from Tidal) I tried : 1- Coax output from lumin to my marantz with QED...

Hi ln my iPhone for layout purposes, I don’t want to add a music library. Just want to use Tidal/Qobuz. But every time I start the app after shutdown, Lumin app prompt me to add a music library. Is there a way avoid this popups rather than adding a music library? Thanks

Hey there. Hope you are fine during these crazy times. I have a question about MQA that I did not have a chance to ask before. Let’s say we have a MQA album FLAC 24b 48k and completely unfolding it will deliver 96k like for example the last Tony Allen album on Tidal “Rejoice” (amazing album by...

Hi I would like to use my U1 Mini with 2 DACs A DAC for my speakers - Marantz ND8006 / Marantz PM8006 with B&W CM8 and a DAC/amp for my headphones - Sony Z1HES with Sony MDR Z1R headphones The 2 DACs have only USB/COAX/OPT inputs 1- I am thinking about feeding the 1st DAC with a coax RCA cable...

Roon app improves dramatically the music experience. One has to try it to understand. I just bought a lifetime membership and I’m very happy about it. But one thing is still surprising me. On iOS, how come Lumin is very often still working properly on background while Roon goes to sleep just...

Hi there I recently bought an iPhone XR. I installed lumin app to enjoy my music - everything normal so far. However, with the iPhone XR there is something really annoying when swiping right from ”listening to” view to libraries view. Very often the gesture erases or tries to erase a song in...

Like some of you I have now problems with tidal streaming in my Lumin U1 Mini. It seems it is related to the dns of my internet provider. I changed dns settings to google’s directly in my iPhone and it solved the problem. My internet provider does not allow changing of dns directly in the...

Hey all music lovers For Lumin transporters ie U1 and U1MINI. 1- USB vs COAX Do you advice USB output or COAX output? What are your tests about SQ? What advice do LUMIN designers give? 2- COAX vs COAX BNC What is the difference between COAX spdif and COAX BNC? Which is better when it comes...

Hey there ! I finally bought my first Lumin!!! Lumin U1 Mini. I am very happy about it ! It works like a charm with my existing system. I have some suggestions for you: 1- Improve the display of airplay: when playing a song through airplay, I noticed that the artist, the name of the song and...

Hi there, Sonos team managed recently to create a playing now notification showing what is playing on sonos directly in the lock screen of iPhone/iPad. Will be great to get the same notification when playing something on Lumin, right?
