Lumin X2 Has anyone used this device yet?


Lumin X2 Has anyone used this device yet?

I own the Lumin X1 and I have been very happy with it. Recently Lumin has now released the X2 model.

The updated X2 is supposed to have superior internal components that exceed the X1 in sonic attributes.

Still, there doesn't seem to be much info that I can find about it compared to the X1.

ozzy,

My cables are Cardas Clear which run a bit on the warm side. Your silver dragons would be ultra sharp and responsive (as they should be!)

You will love the sound of the X2.

Happy listening - don't forget to eat.

´´ ...with the Russ Andrews ground cable connected only to the Lumin power supply . ´´

 

What does it add , to use this grounding cable ?

Well, you asked:

Both the X2/X1 have separate ground terminals on the main unit and also on the power supply. However, I have found using both ground connections to not be as good as just using the one on the X2 power supply.

Surprisingly, adding the ground cable does add a bit of clarity to the soundstage. I used it with the X1 and now with the X2.

And as jimpainter stated there was no Fed Ex tracking available until late last night. Very weird, must remember it.

For goods going from one side of America to the other, Fed Ex uses trains, so unlike truck where it gets scanned every few hours, in my case shipping from GIK Acoustics there was no scan from Atlanta until the train freight was unloaded in Portland- about 4-5 days. A little unnerving for sure, there at least should be some notice mentioning this strategy.

So , one end of the cable is connected to the power supply’ s terminal

But where is the other end of the cable , connected ?  ( in the X2 terminal ? )
