Bluesound Vault Combined with Node 2


I have a bluesound node 2 connected to my high-end stereo system (Krell amp, Thiel speakers) in my living room. I am getting the Vault 2i to replace it, plus house all my CDs (over 1000). I have a second stereo system in my bedroom (Nad amp, Polk speakers) which I use with a grace digital Internet radio. Would there be any advantage for me to replace the grace Internet radio with the node 2? Can the node 2 and the vault “talk” to each other so that I can play my burned CDs from the vault in my bedroom? Any other suggestions of what I can do with both devices would be gratefully appreciated.

Update to the update: after 2+ months of loading all my CDs into the vault (over 1,000), I finally finished. According to the vaults statistics, I have only used up 12% of the hard drive, which sounds a bit too incredible to me. It displayed a total of 10,100 “songs” occupying 245 GB of disc space.

Be that as it may, it has changed my listening life completely! I now listen to CDs in my collection a good 20 times more than I used to. The ability to lie on the couch (or anywhere around the house) and play any CD, or multiple CDs, I want, in an instant, is fantastic. The ease of which I can now search for a CD, a song, a title is simply amazing. Combining albums, songs, etc. is a piece of cake. And the clarity I get through my stereo system is superb; even when using the Internet streaming services, like Amazon HD, Spotify or Radio Paradise (which is a station I highly recommend to anyone.)

Now my biggest problem is what to do with my CD collection. I have put my Theta Miles CD player on eBay and I will keep my NAD CD player as a backup in case the Vault breaks down and I sell the Miles. 

And, The Bluesound Node 2 that I have on my bedroom stereo, talks seamlessly with the Vault, giving me the best of both worlds. I cannot be happier!


Larry- what is tbe distance between the node and vault and are you using wifi ir bluetooth?

Anyone else with vault and node connections and if so, how far away can this be done by wifi?
Recluse…

The Bluesound node 2 is connected to the Vault via Wi-Fi on my home network. I use a TP-link Deco mesh Wi-Fi system and one of the tp-link’s nodes is hardwired to the Vault which is maybe 5 feet from the vault. The Bluesound node 2, although it is in my bedroom (and the vault is in my living room) I don’t think they are more than 10 feet apart, with a wall separating them. I hope that answers your question.

I have a Vault 2 in the great room and a Node 2i in a second bedroom system.  I can access the stored music files via the Node wirelessly.  I experience no connection difficulties or dropouts.
 I estimate the distance to about 30 feet with two walls between.  The router is a Hitron that was supplied by SparkLight with their internet service.
