Any Bluesound Node2 owners

The Ayre CODEX Dac is a excellent choice in conjunction with the Node2. You can pick one up used around $800-$1000. Not bad, considering it sells new for around $2000. Codex also has balanced outs to your amp. If your amp has balanced inputs, try this configuration. It improved SQ in my opinion. The Node 2's internal dac has very respectable sound.

Any way to turn off the LAN connector lights, the flashing orange is crazy

I have Tidal and just started a trial subscription to Qobuz. They are pretty comparable through my Blusound Node. I’m not sure why everyone wants to push a separate DAC. It sound good stock in my opinion. Somebody mentioned hooking it to a CD player for its Dac. I have an Oppo 105. Who thinks that Dac would be an improvement?

Im diggin this piece, the app actually controls the unit, it doesnt cast to it, no need for a tv to be on, and to boot i get my favorite sliding volume! My denon app has a sliding volume, its more of an attenuator on the node though, i set my volume at -20db MV and the app does the rest.

this is gonna get alot of use....
