Thanks guys! I was actually thinking of the Node 2 as a first step, to be followed by the addition of an ifi iDSD Black Label DAC (which I can get an employee discount on through a family member).
But, since it my current DAC only goes to 96/24, I expect I might be using the Node 2's DAC for a while until I could afford the ifi DAC. However, my current DAC is pretty good - a highly moded Beresford DAC called the Superberry, by K-Works. One of the things I like about it is that it has a really wide soundstage, although the depth is a little lacking. That's why I asked specifically about the Node 2 DAC's soundstage characteristics. Can anyone comment specifically on that for me? It's really the only area some of the reviews (none from Bo) criticized.
Thanks.
