Stereonet have published their review of LUMIN T3, presenting it with their Applause Award.
During the review Mark Gusew states:
----------
"LUMIN devices are amongst the easiest to set up and configure in the industry."
"This model is much closer to the P1 in overall sound quality than the price difference would suggest"
"LUMIN has got something very right here."
"Two things make it stand out from the crowd. First is the excellent sound quality, its dynamics and sheer drive giving life and excitement to music. Secondly, the ongoing software maintenance and support from the factory provide peace of mind and confidence in the purchase being future-proof."
