Bluesound


Anyone try the new node update ? After the last update I'm afraid to.

I bought a Bluesound Node at Christmas from Crutchfield because it was on sale for the holiday season. Well, the first unit that arrived here wouldn't update or do much of anything except illuminate it's LED's. Called Crutchfield and the technical response was great. The CS rep sent me a new unit that he personally updated and everything has been bliss there after. I have updated it a few times since the holiday season without any problems. I know that there are better DAC's out there but the Node is the best bang for the buck !

I installed the latest version, 4.4.19, with no issue. It actually fixed an issue I reported to Bluesound after the last upgrade. With Qobuz after the last version, going into genres and looking for music in those genres suddenly did not work. This upgrade fixes the issue as the release notes indicate.

I haven’t noticed any other differences.

I am having major issues with my 3-4 year old Node 2i.  It was operating very well until about a month ago when I started getting a message "Remote Service Error, Internet Server Error".  I then decided to update the software to the latest version and it has become MUCH worse.  I control the streamer with either an Ipad Pro or Iphone 12 pro.  I have unplugged my router, deleted the app etc, but nothing improves.  It is essentially unworkable.  As a temp solution, I am using Airplay 2 with Amazon Music HD and bypassing the BluOS app. Any suggestions are very welcome.  I have sent a message to Bluesound but have not had a response yet.  Thank you, Anthony
