Luxman D-N150 Digital CD Player

Luxman D-N150 Digital CD Player

Part of LUXMAN’s NeoClassico II Series, the compact D-N150 combines uncompromising audiophile design with exceptional flexibility. Audio bona fides include a 5mm thick aluminium chassis and internal parts selected through exhaustive listening tests. Flexibility takes the form of coax, optical and USB digital inputs for converting hi-res audio files to gorgeous, unconstrained analogue sound.

CD transport and D/A converter

The D-N150 has the same CD transport as LUXMAN’s highly regarded D-380. Carefully auditioned parts include the power transformer, filtering capacitors, Schottky barrier diodes and LUXMAN’s own Oxygen Free Copper (OFC) wire. The Texas Instruments PCM5102A digital-to-analog converter helps deliver a signal-to-noise ratio of 110 dB, presenting music against a background very close to absolute silence.

Coax, optical and USB input with Bulk Pet® transfer

You can take advantage of the digital-to-analogue converter built into the D-N150 to reproduce external sources. Coaxial and optical inputs accept S/PDIF signals up to 192 kHz/24 bits, while the USB input accepts personal computer PCM signals up to 192 kHz/32 bits. The D-N150 is the first LUXMAN product to support Bulk Pet ®*　transmission in addition to conventional, isochronous USB transfer. This achieves exceptional sound by reducing the processing load on the DAC. Optical output empowers you to use the D-N150 as a single DAC hub.*Bulk Pet® is a registered trademark of INTERFACE Co., LTD.

High-grade aluminium remote control

The aluminium remote control feels substantial in your hand. This remote operates not only the D-N150 digital player but also the volume on the matching　SQ-N150 amplifier.

Understated design

The D-N150 has a compact “A4” footprint, just 210 x 297 mm (8-1/4 x 11-3/4 inches), not including projecting parts. The 5 mm thick aluminium chassis features an elegant, blasted white finish. Hairline finished controls provide a subtle contrast between white and silver.
