I am very happy with my Node 2 sound quality. It seems to lose connection via WiFi, which doesn’t occur with wired LAN connection. May just be my home network. It is a keeper for streaming internet radio (eventually adding Spotify). It is also my backup Roon endpoint for playing NAS-stored music. Well worth its cost for what it does.
Add streamer with quality sound to system for Tidal and portable drive
I want to add a streamer to my system, I am currently using a Dell laptop with a decent USB cable.
Will I be satisfied with a Node 2 streaming Tidal and plugging in a portable drive? I want to control from my phone. I don't need multi room access.
This is my equipment in terms of expectations:

I've used this https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00VAQM48Y?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title for almost 2 years now, 1st with my mydac and then with my node2. Never compared with any other cords including stock but very satisfied. Also bought a c7 to IEC adapter from ebay <~$3 (shipped from GB) to use with any IEC but never had to try it. |
