To extend Ethernet to remote location, are Powerline extenders or Mesh systems better?
@musicfan2349 Can you go into more detail on how the mesh point affected your MC preamp/playback. I have one  near my turntable.   
CDP or Transport and DAC? Recomendations?
  @stuartk Same question here.    
Appreciate Some Dac Advice
I'll chime in also. I've had the Pontus II  for about 2 weeks and it is superb. It sounded great right out of the box.  Great sound, built like a tank and  reasonable price. Very happy with this DAC. I spent about four hours  today listening...

@btscott  Yes! I've had my Pontus II for a couple of weeks. Wonderful sounding DAC right out of the box, still breaking in. Great build quality and the price is very reasonable. Several online reviews you can check out.

DAC Upgrade
I totally get buying American when possible. The two DACs I own, MHDT and Denafrips Pontus II are excellent and a great value. The Pontus is also about same net $$.

Google Nest WiFi
Thanks, I'll try it.  
Google Nest WiFi
@jbs So you think I could integrate an older nest point into my present set up? I tried researching this online, couldn’t find much help.    
Google Nest WiFi
Yes, it is my understanding the older version points had ethernet connections. BTW my house is built on a concrete slab so I can't run a cable under the house. Can't fish a wire either, too much trouble and it's an exterior wall full of insulation... 
Can a Bluesound Node 2i power supply really be upgraded?
@ianrmack  Anything to report regarding the T. Pardo LPS?
