Has anyone compared Lumin the U1 Mini to the U2 Mini?


What are your thoughts about the two? Is the sound quality that much better?  Is the price difference worth it?

The rest of the system is Denafrips Pontus ll > Hegel H390 > KEF Reference 5 speakers.

Thanks.

Well there you go! The reviewer loved it and heard a substantial improvement over the U1 Mini. So could be worth a shot!!!

My take away is that the U-2 mini is a natural progression with some updates over the U-1 mini, which I already own. I don't feel it is necessary to run out and replace mine with the newer one. But for someone who doesn't own either, the U-2 makes perfect sense. And I can attest that the original sounds darn good.

So I have had the new Node N130 for five ish months and I’m already getting upgradeitis. For a few hundred, I can replace the power supply or for (insert dollar amount here) I can get? The U1 mini got a ton of good press and it was on my short list last year.

Maybe It’s time to start looking at the used U1 mini market.
