I had problems with both my Node2 and Vault2. The whole system goes kablooie at once. And I still haven’t heard back from my dealer about the Pulse Mini that died a year out of warranty.
I am burning my discs to a Synology NAS that I am currently controlling with the Bluesound. It works now but I hold my breath with each Bluesound Update. Travis from Bluesound Tech Support and I are now best buddies. Ultimately I’d like to get a Bryston BDP 3, but that will have to wait.
Bluesound is an amazing bargain, when it works. The Vault combines a ripper, storage, software player, DAC (MQA at that), for just over a grand. At that price point, it’s perhaps unrealistic to expect flawless performance.
