LUMIN L2 Music Library and Network Switch

Your own music collection deserves the same effortless experience as streaming. The L2 makes it that simple: add your files, and they appear in the LUMIN app, ready to play, with no setup and no computer to maintain. Built in, a 4-port audiophile network switch with optical fibre cleans up your whole system at the same time.

Your library, served beautifully, with zero setup.

The Design

The L2 is a dedicated UPnP (OpenHome) music server running LUMIN's own server software, designed for rock-solid stability, rich tag support, and high-resolution PCM and DSD. Add music over USB 3.0 from a computer or across the network, and it's served automatically. Choose it with no drives to install your own, or with SSD storage fitted.

Its 4-port switch includes two SFP ports for optical fibre and two RJ45 ports. Run fibre from the L2 to your LUMIN player, and the player is completely isolated from electrical noise on the rest of your network, while the switch replaces the cheap, noisy consumer switches often found near hi-fi gear. A shielded, low-noise power supply and the same thick CNC chassis as LUMIN's P1 keep it silent and vibration-free.

How It Sounds

Reviewers were surprised by how much a library and switch can matter. Audiophile Style's Chris Connaker noticed a dead-silent, black background the moment he pressed play. High Fidelity's Wojciech Pacuła found it two steps ahead of a Synology NAS at retrieving fine detail, and added it to his reference system. Soundrebels heard strictly high-end sound with completely silent operation.

Where It Fits

The L2 is the natural companion to any LUMIN player, hub, or transport, and matches the look of the X2, T3X, and U2. If you stream only and want optical isolation across a larger system, the N1 switch offers ten ports and a 10MHz clock input.
