theo,My node just updated 5 minutes ago to version 3.20.49.No info on bluesound sight that I could find about update yet.Maybe this will help with the issue?
Bluesound Node 2 producing distortion and dropouts
I have my Bluesound Node connected via co-ax to a Chord Hugo TT-2 and have been experiencing some issues as of late. When I start to listen to music I sometimes have a distortion with dropouts. I have found that if I unplug the power cord on the Bluesound and press the buttons on the top and re-plug the power cord, the issue goes away.
is anyone else experiencing this? Is this a signal from the Bluesound that is starting to fail and I should start shopping for a replacement streamer. A little background, I originally bought this unit 3-4 years ago,new. I used a Rega DAC then a Chord Cutest and about 6-8 months ago the Hugo. Until a few weeks ago I had great service from this unit, so I don’t feel the DAC is related to the issue. I mainly am using Tidal and Qobuz for streaming.
any insight is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Mr-m mine was new 4 yrs ago and has been performing great until this past month. I hope it self corrects so I can continue to enjoy it. donlp33, I have 3.20.45 and have tried to do an update but I get the “no update required “ so maybe it will come in the next day or two. Thanks for letting me know.

Bluesound node was always problematic for me with wifi. My puls mini is better since it is hardwire. but… my issues with internet service in a very rural spot is where I have issues.. buffering, restarting, just break up of tracks.. really frustrating.. even the starlink exhibits these issues. Streaming lower bit rate is more “successful” yet hardly satisfying. Local lan from san is best. |
I can't vouch for the claims here, but some Node owners have complained about the units failing after about 3 years.... |
