Default New Lumin U2 Digital Transport

The new Lumin U2...
https://luminmusic.com/lumin-u2.html

I just went and looked up the photos on the new U2. It looks very impressive.

Here's some photos (which I cropped slightly to fit on the web page more easily)...







Specs are very impressive:
DSD512, PCM768, DSD256 Upsampling, 3 USB ports including a NEW dedicated low-noise USB output (for connection to a DAC). 4, count 'em, 4 exceptionally low-phase-noise crystal clock oscillators (woot!), ultra-low-noise rectifier and linear regulator, extra large toroidal transformer, and LEEDH volume processing control.

Also note, the rear panel has a dedicated chassis ground terminal (inside red border box) you can connect to an Altaira.



Very impressed by this company...those guys at Lumin have got it goin' on.
