Just installed a bluesound node 2i , quality not so good


Sounds flat vs streaming from marantz 5014 heos, which is more revealing and open.  Both ways are wired.
Is there a break in period?  Otherwise it is disappointing.

I am listening thru b&w spkrs and mcintosh amp. And wired to analogue inputs of avr

thanks for any comments, suggestions

Don't use AVR input.  Use the RCA input to your amp.  I have the bluesound node 2i and it is very good as a streamer and decent as a DAC.  I use it with coax output to Denafrips Ares ii.  I have a marantz streamer with heos and the bluesound is much much better.
