any suggestions on what to replace Bluesound Node 2i with


I am doing a major upgrade on my home theater system. I want to upgrade my streamer. I can spend around $4500 if I have to. My dealer played a Lumin T2 and the music, Tidal, sounded amazing. He said I would be okay with the D2 if I wanted to save money
Any one have any experience with the the Lumin's. I am open to other streamers, it does not have to be Lumin. Thanks

I use a Mytek brooklyn bridge(version 1) and love it. It is a roon endpoint and sound is great.  I believe they just released the second edition which is still under your budget($3500) or you could find a version 1 used possibly for less.  Nice thing here is, it is a streamer and a great dac so you can run the bluesound through the dac and do some a/b comparing with the internal streamer of the mytek and use the winner?  I have compared to streaming through usb (through the Mytek)and the mytek streamer via roon always wins(ethernet)
I bought an astron rm-12 power supply for mine and it really helped the sound.
Highly recommended.
