Why Lumin U2?
Following the huge success of our price-performance superstar LUMIN T3, the LUMIN U2 brings the same design philosophy to a streaming van for the first time. Inheriting the chassis construction, linear power design and dual network of the award-winning LUMIN P1, the new LUMIN U2 brings high-end digital technology right to the heart of the LUMIN product line.
