Phone to receiver, or streamer?


I'm streaming music from my phone to Marantz 8012 receiver and it sounds great. Just sending via bluetooth, no complaints. 

If I were to purchase something like the Bluenote node 2i and connect via ethernet etc. do you believe the sound quality improvement would justify the $550? 

I'm assuming the DAC in the 2i would be an improvement over the Marantz, but not certain. 

Thanks!

Its very difficult to improve upon the sound quality from a receiver. Particularly when using such a high-resolution source. It is after all digital. Hard to imagine how it could get any better for any amount of money.
