Unitiqute 2 failing - what to do

I have a set of Harbeth P3ESR hooked up to a unitiqute 2...and it has been a beautiful marriage. I love the NAIM sound but their user interface is awful (at least on my device) and there are so many little glitches with the UQ streaming that I am not even going to start into it.  After an email to Naim (not the first) they say they no longer support the UQ2.

So, I purchased a B/S NODE (132 - the new one) and hooked it up (analogue) and none of the Harbeth greatness is coming through.  I may try a digital connect and/or improved analogue connectors but It's so bad I can't see it making up the lost ground.   The sound change is drastic...not subtle.  

Without sinking $3K into another "all in one" type streamer any recommendations? 

thx in advance

I had the same experience with Naim. Their product failed within 3 years. Sad part is they didn’t even bother to return my emails or offered any kind of advice. I don’t recommend Naim to anyone. They were yesterdays news running on past - 20 year old- reputation. 

See if you can find a used Aurender A1000.
