Which component to upgrade 1st ?

lwin, ty! I admit currently I listen to mostly digital, and the node is definitely the weak link in my system. I find I'm torn though I keep thinking about how much better my phono could sound with a better phono amp. Then again these are first world problems I am lucky to have.

mwinkc I made the mistake of previewing a the Aurender A10 and N100 streamers in my system, ever since then my ears protest when listening to the node.

Sort of wondering if you should even keep the TT? Or just move it on…

I am the other way around, and just moved from the 5 disc 90’s CD player to a DAC this year… but only use that when I am not run the TT. (Like podcasts and doing the kitchen work.)

The node is definitely the weak link. I replaced mine with a U-1 mini and it was a nice upgrade. Both were using an outboard DAC.

Instead of opting for the T-2, I suggest bringing in the U2-mini and a good NOS DAC of your choice.

For very little money, replace the power board in the bluesound with another from PD Creative and get an external power supply. For a few hundred dollars, it ups the game of the Bluesound by a lot.
