Bluesound Node (2021) PS upgrade to Teddy Pardo; is it worth it?
The TP power supply for the Node N130 is now $475 plus $70 to the US and you don’t need the PD board. It comes with a wire harness that plugs in where the Node’s ps board was and has a plate to make it look like it belongs.   
Using battery power to go off the City's power grid
So what about when the battery is charging, is there any noise?  I tried a couple of similar devices and both had clicks when the charger went on and off and the other also added a low hum. what is different with this product? Thanks. JD

@painter24  I was afraid you were going to say that.  PD doesn’t have a PSU for 110 volts. As I mentioned before, they suggested I get their board and the PSU from S Booster.  I just can’t pull the plug.    Thanks.

@derekw_hawaii  You might also consider a Class A/B amp. Just a thought.  
I think I just smoked my Amp
New, the D400’s came with two extra 8amp slo blow fuses.  Maybe there was a reason for that. Hopefully that’s all it is.

@jetter  Hey jetter,  I sent them an email asking what power supply I needed to go with the PD Creative board for the N130 and they said they had nothing 110 volts and told me to contact S Booster. I believe the 2i is a 7 volt system, so maybe y...

I know I’m late, but has anyone compared the PD Creative psu to the Pardo psu on the Node N130? PD currently doesn’t have a power supply for the US and suggested I get a S Booster, so Pardo would be the easiest to get, but… Thanks    
Streamer Upgrade
@baylinor  I have the new node and it’s going to a Pontus ll DAC. I was looking at getting the PD Creative power board and the S Booster power supply. Together, they will double the cost of the Node N130, so if the benefit outweighs the cost, I w... 
Did you notice....
I’ve only been streaming a couple months now and I have found a few streaming  tracks that sound better than the CD, but I’m mostly listening to music I don’t already have. I’ve been having a blast listening to tunes/albums that others have recomm... 
Does anyone on this Forum have any experience with Audio research ref 610t monoblocks
@agolde1110  Buy them, you won’t be sorry. I have a friend who has a pair, so I’ve listened to them several times and I drool each time.  Just remember, they do put off a lot of heat. I’ve teased my friend that we could do Sunday breakfast on the...

@willg1985  I just bought the new Node and was looking at doing the power supply upgrade.  How big of a difference was there when you did yours and do you think it was worth the money? Thanks.  
What are songs where people or instruments sound closer to you?
@larryi  I just listened to it twice and when the ladies start their Do Do’s, on the right and then on the left and louder then back to the right and louder still, really does give the impression of them coming toward you.
