| Replacing a Cambridge Audio CXN V2 My limitations are that it needs to be wifi/Bluetooth capable as I don't have an ethernet plug accessible where my equipment is located If you switch to a mesh wireless you can have a mesh node at the rig and hardwire from the node to the st... | |
| Bluesound Node N130 Is it possible the Node has a faulty Coax out? Obviously you have proven there is no problem on the Simaudio. Might be time to contact BS. | |
