Key Features & Benefits
High-Quality CD Playback
The D-N150 supports standard Compact Discs (CD) and CD-R media, bringing out musical clarity with stable disc reading and low-noise digital conversion.
Flexible High-Resolution Inputs
Equipped with USB, coaxial, and optical digital inputs, the D-N150 accepts PCM signals up to 192 kHz/24-bit, allowing seamless playback from computers, network streamers, and digital transports.
Premium DAC for Clean Conversion
Utilising a Texas Instruments PCM5102A digital-to-analogue converter, the D-N150 delivers a wide dynamic range and an open soundstage with a low noise floor, representing music with clarity and presence.
Analogue Output Optimised for Systems of All Sizes
The unbalanced 2.1 V / 300 Ω analogue output ensures transparent signal delivery to amplifiers and integrated systems alike.
Compact Build & Elegant Finish
With a 5 mm thick aluminium chassis and precision controls, the D-N150 not only performs beautifully—it complements any audiophile system visually.
Sonic Performance Highlights
-
Smooth frequency response and low distortion for natural music reproduction.
-
High S/N ratio delivers a quiet background for dynamic range and detail.
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-analog 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 volume on the matching SQ-N150 amplifier.
Understated design
The D-N150 has compact “A4” footprint, just 210 x 297 mm (8-1/4 x 11-3/4 inches), not including projecting parts. The 5 mm thick aluminum chassis features an elegant, blasted white finish. Hairline finished controls provide a subtle contrast between white and silver.
