I have the Auralic Polaris all in 1 for a second system, much better than the bluesound, not sure about the other. Auralic makes very nice equipment. I’ve had large Usher speakers hooked up to it with no issues.
All-in-One (Streamer/DAC/Amp) - Powernode vs WiiM amps
I am looking for a small room setup, with Sonus faber Lumina II Amator speakers, to be driven by an all-in-one streamer, dac and amp. Is the Bluesound Powernode relevant any more? It’s been out for 4-5 years now. The WiiM amps (and pro) have gotten rave reviews and have tons more features. Does that render the Bluesound Powernode redundant at this point?
Is there anyone who switched from Powernode to the WiiM amps? Or to any other all-in-one system? I am looking to spend $1K, max. Thank you.
