Bluesound Node for Hegel 190?

Hey all,

I have a Hegel 190 driving a pair of PSB Synchrony One floor standers, my only source is streaming of Tidal via Airplay to the DAC internal to the H190. Streaming is via Airplay from my iPhone then Ethernet.

Would the new Node best Airplay and Hegel’s internal DAC? The Node has a 30 day trial period, so no risk other than time.

Does anyone use a Node with your Hegel integrated? Your experience would be welcome.

Thanks

First make sure you like the Hegels DAC, try playing some CD’s. If you like the DAC then try a better transport (eg. iFi Istream, Martin Logan Unison, Zidoo Eversolo).

I think the Hegel is a mismatch with the Node. The Node is not as transparent and a bit too laid back.
