It will be interesting if mrcyrpuz and others who compared the U1 to the mini with sbooster, tried upgrading the DC cable on the LPS powering the mini.
I am willing to bet upgrading the DC cable will close the gap significantly between the U1 and the mini.
I have done this for my U1 mini and it is very good.
