Doesn’t fit node 2i pin connector. No info online stated that so I’m sending back. Need to make that clear

Easy to install; took me about 20 minutes. Easy to connect to SBooster BOTW 5-6 volt power supply that I purchased at the same time. I recommend these two. I am hearing blacker black backgrounds, more extended soundstages, and less clinical recordings.

It’s an easy install, not scary at all. If you’re buying this product you’re smart enough to get the job done right, so go slow enjoy the task and ROCK ON!

Immediately noticeable difference! Installed on a Node X in about 10 minutes. Quieter background, more (and cleaner) details coming through, cleaner bass, improved soundstage. Some of the changes were subtle, but the changes to soundstage and bass were not! Staff at Upscale Audio answered all my questions and were very helpful. I had been considering adding an external DAC to my Node X, but this SBooster upgrade cured me of that notion (and for a fraction of the price). I highly recommend it. I’ve tried a cheaper power upgrade for my Node X with poor results. This one rocks!

All I have to say is WOW! I've happily lived with my Bluesound node for over a year. I happened to catch Kevin's video and became curious. I'm not compelled to write reviews, but the improvement is more than subtle in my opinion. This is within 5 minutes of plugging in the system. I can't wait to see what I have after the 100 hour burn in. Modding is straightforward and the set up really improves an already great product. A well deserved 5 stars!!

Install was straightforward and easy. The instructions are clear about removing this small plastic piece in the node. It seemed to fit fine with or without that divider but I removed as instructions stated. I didn’t use the node with original power source so I cannot comment on sonic improvement with the Sbooster but I have had good results with other equipment and Sbooster power supplies.

I like everything about my Bluesound Node and decided to upgrade the sound quality rather than upgrading to another streamer. I was somewhat skeptical but that was put to rest as soon as I connected the Sbooster. Not a night and day difference but an easily recognizable improvement. If you don't already have a Node perhaps buying a superior streamer from the get go makes more sense, but as I said already, I like everything about the Node, if you've got one the Sbooster does make a difference.
