Difference between Bluesound Node 2i and Cambridge CXN v2

Looking at both of these units and I know there is a $500 difference but can anyone tell me the differences between them and which might be better? It seems as the CXN uses dual DACS and has balanced outs. It might actually sound better but any help would be appreciated.

Just saw the thread now,
I tried both the Node and the Cambridge using a Benchmark DAC.
Similar to someone’s opinion above, my view was the SQ of the Cambridge was better sounding.  So, I returned the Node and kept the Cambridge.
it also has more features than the Node (e.g. front display, internet radio) and is more flexible.
A better all-round unit in my opinion.
