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

I had a Node 2i before the Lumin and I think the U-1 was a very nice improvement. Using both with an external DAC of course.

It’s looking like I might be following you. The U2 mini is $2400 and I’m seeing U1 mini for less than half of that. Wife loves Amazon Music, but I’m guessing she can be persuaded to Tidal  or Qobuz.

Thanks for your input.

If you wouldn't mind sharing offline where you found one at that price, I'd appreciate it. My son has a Node and is interested in upgrading.

Wanted to add that I also had a Node 130 with upgraded power supply, and switched to the full Lumin U1 with the X1 PSU. It was a substantial upgrade across the board in terms of sound quality, and while I initially missed the ease of the BlueOS app, like a lot of things about the Lumin app more now.

Granted the Lumin setup is a lot more expensive, but I found one in mint condition used so deals are out there.

My bad,

When I did the search again it was for a M1 not a U1.
