HANDMADE IN
Lucas Domansky, founder and visionary of LDMS (Lucas Domanski Music Servers), has been a dedicated audiophile from an early age. Born in Poland, Lucas showed an early interest in elevating music playback quality beyond established norms. By age 10, he was already helping his father design and build custom speaker systems and hi-fi electronics.
Lucas’s early curiosity in digital sound led him to experiment with PC hardware, testing components and software modifications to improve audio quality. Two decades later, he transitioned smoothly into IT engineering, optimising industrial server systems for companies in the UK and Poland.
In 2015, Lucas's pursuit of flawless digital playback evolved into a serious endeavour. His home-built music server garnered the attention of seasoned audiophiles, and the pivotal moment came in 2017 when he showcased a prototype at the North West Audio Show at Cranage Hall, where it won HiFi Pig magazine’s Best Room award.
Spurred by this success, Lucas founded Lucas Audio Lab that same year, turning his passion into a full-fledged business dedicated to creating the world’s most refined music servers. His unique approach blends extensive IT and hardware-software integration experience with an audiophile’s insight. Yet, Lucas aims to deliver more than a mere technical solution.
“No two performances of any composition are ever the same…Nor are any two Lucas Domansky LDMS Music Servers.”

“There’s more to it than simply assembling high-spec parts that may not harmonise. I strive for lifelike playback free from digital harshness, achieving what some describe as an ‘analogue sound’ without DSP.” Lucas explains: "Each server is customised and tuned for optimal sound quality, matching any available DAC and tailored to specific music genres like classical, rock, pop, or jazz.”
By 2020, Lucas dedicated himself entirely to Lucas Audio Lab, expanding his production facility in Poland and adding three full-time team members. Speaking about the future of LDMS, he shares:
"I want to revolutionise the industry with my approach to after-sales care. It frustrates me when customer support ends after a purchase is made."
Lucas’s passion for customer support is evident. Owning an LDMS server means joining a community with personalised attention and ongoing software tune-ups to refine sound quality. His commitment to excellence is further highlighted by a seven-year warranty, with testimonials underscoring his unmatched aftercare experience.
