Streamer question

I've looked and looked and can't find the answer to my question.

I use a Bluesound Node to stream both Spotify and Qobuz.  The Bluesound lets me use the web app that I downloaded to my Ipad to play music.

I want to upgrade, but I'm not seeing whether or not that is possible.  Most of the better streamers ($2000 or so) seem to have their own software which I would rather not use.

Anybody know the answer to this?

Thank you!

I have the BS Node N-130 withe the Teddy Pardo PS and their cable and it is a huge improvement.  My only concern is that there are better DAC chips and chipsets out there. I have been looking at Aurender, but the prices are a bit high concidering  my amp was only 6K. It seems silly to put a 6-10K streamer on it with my external 2K DAC.

Hey, does the Pulse have a USB output to run to my DAC and does it work with Amazon HD?

Thanks.

While I know there are newer and better streamers out there, I am really in no hurry to find one.  Between the Pardo LPS and a good USB cable going to my DAC, I’m very happy with the sound.
