X1 Heritage

LUMIN P1 takes many flagship features from the outstanding LUMIN X1:

Fibre Networking

Immensely popular on X1, optical networking provides complete isolation from network noise. Additionally, dual network ports mean that you can connect LUMIN L1 or a NAS directly to P1.

Femto Clocking System

P1 includes dual Femto crystal oscillators and our proprietary FPGA clock distribution system first debuted in X1.

Output Buffer Design

The fully balanced Dual Mono analogue output module including legendary Lundahl Output transformers has been keeping music-lovers happy since the original LUMIN A1.

Dual-toroidal Power Supply

The roomy P1 chassis provides space to move the X1 toroids inboard for a cleaner installation, while retaining all the benefits of separate analogue and digital circuits.
