Bluesound, best value streamer?

Best value I have seen is plex on Amazon fire tv box. Box costs less than 100 and supports high res audio and video via toslink and hdmi. Plex app to run on it is $5. Does not require Amazon prime to run plex. You can run plex on smart phones or tablets and "cast" to Amazon fire tv plex to use those as controllers. Use standard hdmi to any tv for display.

Plex runs on many platforms costs virtually nothing and sounds and looks great.

Apologies if this had been covered and I can't understand the answer. 

Question: I have an iPhone with Bluesound app installed. I'm willing to purchase a stand-alone mqa dac (e.g., Meridian Explorer 2). I'm willing to (re) subscribe to Tidal. Can I stream full mqa?

Thanks

The Bluesound app only works if you have a Bluesound device like a Node2, Vault, etc. You need to use the Tidal app on your mobile device to stream thru the non-Bluesound devices such as Meridian, etc. And as far as I know, full MQA capability is currently only supported when using the Tidal app on a PC/Mac. Hope this helped.

The analog outs of Bluesound Node2 will allow FULL Mqa. The internal Dac is about as good as any DAC in the under $700 or so price range (maybe higher). If you go digital out from the node, 24/96 is limit unless you have an MQA Dac. I believe the explorer only takes USB in, so one would have to have a computer.
