Can a Bluesound Node 2i power supply really be upgraded?

I’ve not come across anything for the Vault II, not IIi or might try it. I use a Teddy Pardo on my DAC and am I strong believer on power supplies... I’m a big fan of Walt Jung. I’m tempted to pop the case and see if it would be a simple affair. Half tempted to see if Teddy Pardo would take a stab at it and even ship my Vault II to them.

I do agree the BS sounds really good as a streamer, but I’m really curious what’s the next best cracker. None of our local shops carry anything in stock unfortunately, so I have nothing I drag home to compare. 

Meh.   
Anyway you cut it you are still stuck with BluOS

I have the Fidelity upgrade to the Node2i. Does make a small but discernable improvement.

Stuck with BLuos? Hardly. Even so, it's widely regarded as a solid iOS app. Very stable with easy 3rd part integration to Tidal, Qobuz, etc.

I can use it if I want.
I can go from Tidaldirect.
I can use Bluetooth.
I can use WiFi.
I can use ethernet.
I can use its DAC.
I can use my Chord Qutest.

It's simply a fantastic product and NO ONE has been able to measurably show that spending $1500 more on a Lumin actually improves SQ.

Sorry that you don’t know any better. It’s the first streaming app I ever used and I’ve found others that are faster, easier and do all that and more except for Tidal Connect and who needs it?
I’d rather have BandCamp and SoundCloud.
Too bad you don’t have THAT option on a BluNode.
Maybe you should bought something with LPS built in and swappable OS.
Instead of pricey lipstick.
