| Bluesound Node 2i digital output problems... Have you looked through the settings yet? You can change the output mode between stereo, mono, left and right. Settings, Player, Audio, Output Mode.Also, if the internal DAC in your Marantz is not MQA capable you can turn off the "MQA external DA... | |
| BlueSound Stinks(!), anyone? I have a node 2i and initially had similar issues. I initially had the bluesound app on my android phone and also on my android tablet. The issue you describe of the app not finding the node seemed to happen when I would switch between devices. I ... | |
| Distortion using Node 2i as streamer with Denafrips Pontus Dac Also, they make MQA DACs that can fully unfold MQA if that's your thing. The Topping D90 MQA comes to mind. Its $100 extra over the non-MQA version to add MQA compatibility. Mytek also makes MQA DACs. | |
| Distortion using Node 2i as streamer with Denafrips Pontus Dac @larry5729The problem was the DAC you purchased was subpar from the internal DAC in the bluesound. If I remember correctly from your previous posts, it was a Pro-ject DAC Box S2. Thats like saying a $300 turntable doesn't sound as good as the Blue... | |

| turntable recommendations I had a modified planar 2 with all the groovetracer goodies and an upgraded rb330 tonearm. After a few cocktails I submitted an online trade in form to Hi'Fi Heaven in Wisconsin for a new model Planar 8 and they made me a very generous offer. I h... | |
| Just recieved my new Rega Planar 8 I bought a deer hide mat from "Jake's Turntable Mats" on Amazon and have been very happy with it. I have been using it since March 2018 with my previous Planar 2 and moved it over to the Planar 8 when I upgraded. Being deer hide it is very thin an... | |
| Thinking about the good old days... elliottbnewcombjr... I enjoyed your post very much, thank you for adding links to the gear as I am a few decades removed from the era and it adds to the story.My parents bought me a cheap all-in-one from Montgomery Ward when I was 8 or 9 because ... | |
| Just recieved my new Rega Planar 8 Thank you noromance, I was just looking through your system photos. You are a mad genius. I'm envious of your record collection and that display stand. That looks super convenient. Pretty amazing looking systems. | |
| Just recieved my new Rega Planar 8 Congrats on your planar 8 jkeitel, have you replaced the Rega felt mat yet on yours? Since receiving my Planar 8 I have upgraded from the Ania to an Apheta 3 cartridge. I have also replaced the Rega Phono MC with a Rega Aria V2 phono stage. Both ... | |
