Bluesound Node 2 - Replacement Powersupply

(1/3) > >>

shadowlight:
Does anyone know of a replacement power supply for Bluesound Node 2?  My Node 2 has the dread red led and Bluesound will not help me fix it since I bought it 2nd hand and I am willing to pay for the repair :duh.  They want me to send the non-function one in as a trade-in towards new one for 20% discount  ](*,)

I think the repair is replacing a couple of blown capacitors but do not have the skill set to do the job.

If you stream alot, consider a better streamer such as the Lumin u2 mini.
There is a difference for the better

At those prices he is better off taking them up on the 20% offer.

I thought you had the Lumin u1 mini or did you upgrade?

A really good lps or internal upgrade is the way to go. The kit from the guys in Poland isn’t that bad. 1PLN = 22 cents USD. I paid $600 for my lps which I was able to use on my iFi streamer. Well worth the money.

I order the kit from Poland with Meanwell power supply, which cost me $135 shipped.  Will let you guys know how it goes.  This is for casual listening when I do not want to turn the Lampizator DAC on or kids are listening via Spotify.  If I upgrade I will most likely go down the Innuos Zen Mini with LPSU route.

It's just disappointing that Bluesound is not willing to repair it and just charges me for it.  I was not willing to spend 500+ dollars on a new device after 20%.
