What would be the recommendation for these two options (or other options)?
(1) Powernode
(2) Bluesound Node (or Node 2i) + Topping E50 + Topping PA5 (the PA5 is a new 2-channel amp)
#2 would be ~$250 more expensive. Would there be a noticeable improvement in sound for #2 compared to the Powernode?
Are there better overall streaming options under $1300? Not interested in DIY options.
Speakers are Ascend 2-EX. Also have an Oppo DV-980H player I will use for CDs.
Thank you.
