I purchased a Node 2i and was talked into adding a ProJect DAC. When I connect the DAC, I noticed the sound was too thin and I thought the Bluesound Node 2i sounded better by itself. It seemed to play bass better and I don't care what anyone thinks, I can hear the difference when I play MQA using TIDAL. I still wonder why MQA sounds better to me. Maybe I am just imaging this. I would have loved to hear more expensive streamers before deciding on the BlueSound.
