Any recommendations for aftermarket C-7 power cord for Bluesound Node 2i

@big_greg
Thanks for the selection..Even though I have a Node 2i on the way, I'll look into the Lumin's..

I have such a great DAC in my processor that it bothers me to buy a streamer with a DAC as it is like an appendix. Don't need it.

I wish there were good streamers out there without a DAC so all the money went to the streamer.
And one that has TIDAL select!
I was watching a YouTube video with the designers of HiFi Rose streamers and they said they were looking into a streamer without a DAC. But that is likely far away....

I did exactly what adg101 did... built my own through VHAudio. Same configuration, though they have other wire avail. Excellent cable. There are great DIY options on parts Connexion as well if you want to tackle it on your own. A PC isn’t too hard to do... 

@vinylshadow Lumin and others make streamers only. I was seriously considering the UI Mini before I bought the TEAC. The biggest downside to the TEAC is that there is no digital out, so you are committed to its DAC. It has a great DAC though. 

@vinylshadow Find a dealer that carries Lumin or any other high-end streamers to demo. You will find out if the difference is worth it compared to the upgraded Bluesound. 

@big_greg Unless you had a chance to try the upgraded PSU board you might be surprised the potential of Pawel's board + LPS. There's a 150+ page thread on highfiwigwam with people who have done the upgrade and compared to other streamers. I think everyone of them kept the Node 2i.

I would definitely wait and use your Node 2i through your DAC before investing in anything else except a good Ethernet cable.. I run mine through an older Museatex Meitner DAC and love it.  I did purchase a Supra CAT8 Ethernet cable for less than $70 which was a worthwhile upgrade..

Your not purchasing just a piece of equipment, but a key to a whole universe of music.
