lumin P1



"P1 is an absolutely wonderful sounding and highly musical server. Even under the microscope of reference-level CH Precision electronics, Wilson Chronosonic XVX loudspeakers, and top-of-the-line cables and power conditioning, the P1 proved itself where it mattersâ communicating the music." - The Absolute Sound


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

Fiber Networking
Immensely popular on the 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.
Dual Femto Clock
P1 includes dual Femto crystal oscillators and our proprietary FPGA clock distribution system first debuted in X1.
Output Buffer
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.

"Some audio components have a kind of ineffable magic that transcends “good sound" and enters the realm of communicating the music in a more powerful and involving way.... the P1 possesses this quality, delivering an experience that is musically authentic and immersive."- Robert Harley
