| WiFi System Upgrades @williewonka I've had my Node 2 for about three months. You are correct in your assessment of Bluesound. The Node 2 is the main source of my system. The whole family loves it. I use its DAC and it sounds fantastic. I've felt no need to use my exte... | |
| Good quality wireless, active speakers ?? Hi, albireo13,If I was in your situation I would check out the KEF LS50 Wireless. I’m looking forward to the user/professional reviews. It looks to be an outstanding value; streamer, DAC, amplification with 230 watts. Cheers,Scott | |
| Bluesound Node 2 "It is also my understanding that you cannot connect a computer by USB to the Node 2."This line should read; ".......cannot connect to a computer by USB to the Node 2 to play music." | |
| Bluesound Node 2 It is my understanding that Roon is software and Bluesound would provide an update which would make existing Node 2 streamers "Roon Ready".According to Bluesound; the type A USB port is for "connection to USB memory sticks and supported peripheral... | |
| Bluesound Node 2 According to the Roon Labs website the Node 2 will be Roon Ready soon. Another reason to try this great affordable streamer. Also, it sounds fantastic.Cheers,Scott | |

| Please help ...integrated amp under $1200 As paraneer suggests, pick your speakers first. The MA Sliver 10 is a great speaker but I would want at least 100 strong watts to drive them properly. Not just for satisfying volume levels but for good control of the speaker so you can enjoy all t... | |
| Replacement for Matrix 803 S2 B&W can be bright and forward but they are not inherently bright or forward. It all depends on the room, equipment and set-up. When looking for speakers I did audition GE and B&W together. I went with the B&Ws but it was not because th... | |
| Speakers for Rotel RA1570 integrated Hey, mgrec42,In a situation like yours I would check out the Audioengine HDP6 passive. Nearfield desktop set-ups are a strength of Audioengine. My wife uses their A2+ Powered speakers and they sound excellent. Good luck in your search.Cheers,Scott | |
| Bluesound Node 2 The Bluesound Node 2 is fantastic. I've had mine for a couple of months now. It has become my primary source. I use it connected by Ethernet to my router and its analog out to my integrated amp to stream internet radio and my music library on my i... | |
| Retooling the system upward?? What speakers would be a major upgrade over GET model 7's? Hey, sunnyjim,The GE 7 is a great speaker. I listened to it at length when I was in the market for new speakers a couple of years ago. Depending on what your looking for you could go up the GE chain to the Triton Three.Since you have been looking ... | |
| Oh brother, am I in desperate need of help! 8) I'll second the Monitor Audio Silver 10s and add the MA Silver 8s. Also check out the B&W 683 S2. You get a lot of the B&W sound you liked from the 802 in a beautifully made great sounding affordable speaker. Good luck with your speaker se... | |
| Integrated amps for Joseph Audio rm22si Great suggestions from goldprintaudio! I will add the Arcam FMJ A19. Fantastic integrated, outstanding build quality and great sound. | |
| Speakers for my room With a room as large as yours I would go with towers. Your NAD is a great amp and will do a great job with speakers like the PSB X2T or the B&W 683S2. Another great speaker is the Monitor Audio Sliver 8. Good luck with your speaker search.Chee... | |
| Arcam irDAC-II. Have you heard the news? Thanks, nutty. Good info. I enjoy the rDAC very much. I'll have to try to get a listen to the irDAC to see if it would be worth making a move. |
