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.
