Lumin U2 Mini

I was hoping to get user feedback on the Lumin U2 Mini. I currently have a Vault 2i and have really enjoyed it. The Lumin looks appealing to me for several reasons . I was hoping to find a server that would allow me to pull my Vault files through the network but it seems Bluesound is a closed ecosystem and doesn’t support UPnP . That said I noticed the Lumin has digital inputs . This would allow me to use anything in the Vault through the Lumin and my DAC 

I was also wondering how the Lumin app works compared to BluOS. Thanks !

Also, transferring files from the Vault is pretty easy. 
muse the IP address of the Vault as in \\xxx.xxx.xxx

and you will see three subfolders.  Some are the main storage, one is unknown albums, and the other is indexing. 
fron there it is drag and drop. Allow plenty of time, do 4 or 10 artist at a time and go from there.

1. It would be highly recommended that the music files be moved from the vault to a Nas or somewhere that has redundant storage.

2. My NAS runs the basic UPnP server to index and manage the music- the metadata, tags, annum art, etc.  

 

then my Lumin (a D2) streams the music, and the App does the controlling   
 

I’ve seen some people that don’t like the app, but once learned, it’s good.
 

All Lumin  hardware use the app 

The U2 mini looks like ice kit.
