I have been using the Bluesound Node 2i for a few years as a streamer only. About a year ago I tried the N10 and was just not impressed. I really tried to love it and got a great deal used. I kept going back and forth and could just not appreciate much. I seem to be the outlier piece of data you would throw out LOL. I am only suggesting you watch the market close and be sure you get a nice price and consider also picking up a Node from Crutchfield or also a used one and compare for yourself. If you feel the same then you have $2000 or more to use elsewhere.
I was calling random dealers last week looking for a specific set of interconnects. One of them was very inquisitive and asked about my whole system and I told him of my experience. He said to not give up on Aurender and suggested I try an A15 to have an all-in-one. I think that or a dCS Bartok will be my next big purchase.
Good luck with your digital!
