New Lumiin M1 - integrated streamer + DAC + amp
Looks like this category of products is getting popular. Similar to Dartzeel LHC-208 but at a different price level. Wonder how the SMPS + Class-D amplification will sound. No option for external PS upgrade, even for the DAC/streamer section.

NEW! LUMIN M1
Today, we are pleased to announce the release of a new LUMIN model. LUMIN M1 is our first audiophile network music player to feature an integrated amplifier.
Due to our initial limited-quantity production run, M1 is currently on sale in Hong Kong only. Please contact your dealer for further sales details (full list below).
Look out for a Worldwide launch announcement soon.

LUMIN M1 Features:
With LUMIN M1, our aim was clear – take all the award-winning sonic characteristics that the LUMIN music players are renowned for and surprise people with just how amazing an integrated system can sound.
18 months of continual development has lead to our uniquely efficient design including an oversized switching power supply and a fully-digital signal path all the way to the speaker outputs.
Outperforming larger and more expensive separates, LUMIN M1 shouldn't be dismissed as a second system. With 60W of amplifying power it can drive room-filling speakers and has the same musical heart as every other LUMIN music player.
