Why not just add an outboard Dac to the Node? The switch to Lumin may be a worthwhile improvement but I am personally a fan of separating the streaming and Dac functions.
Node 2i to Lumin D2 using internal DAC
Hello
I’ve just started on a retirement upgrade path to create a system for when I have more free time, hoping to have components I'll be happy with for a good while, I’m happy with my Facal speakers and have just upgraded my amp to a Roksan Blak.
I want a 2 box set up without loads of cables so it streamer into amp.
The node 2i is OK, i wouldn’t call it warm and musical I guess you could describe it as clinical and does the job.
Price and quality wise it a good way behind the amp and it make we wonder if the D2 would bring rewards of a more balances warmer sounding system.
Anyone performed this upgrade or have a view if its a marginal, good, no brainer upgrade?
I’ve downloaded the app to my iPad and its reading my library off the NAS and I do like the interface, streaming wise
i’ll be adding my Tidal account.
Cheers
