Just installed a bluesound node 2i , quality not so good

presently searching for a higher quality dac.  So many to chose from, kinda like all the ice cream choices.  If I can find a chocolate Chip cookie dough dac I’ll be happy

Ha,  man after my own heart, or stomach...lol
Watch the Key Lime pie variety though!

@superstoked,
Can you provide a link to the equipment?

Also a nice article about the fiber optic bridge here:

Pretty funny what goes around...lol
Back in the 90,s we were using fiber optic comms for industrial usage, I liked it a lot as no noise, the "wiring" could be routed anywhere even 360 degree loops etc with zero issues.
The programmers say it did not allow enough heavy duty information exchange as Profibus and then later Profinet so we ditched it and moved on.
Canbus that you now find in cars( for a few years actually) was basically Profibus that we started with in the late 90,s, early 00,s . Profinet is really just a variation of ethernet.

Now it is showing up as the latest audio "darling"

Pretty interesting tbh.
Good luck.

superstoked, does this "tweak" still require a "hardwire" connection to the router using the fiber optic cable instead? I'm not following how it addresses the scenarios where the hardwire connection to the router is not possible due to location logistics.
