I listened to some when I was looking for a site radio. I didn't like them at all, just couldn't have listened to them all day.
I got an Audio Pro portable box and it's great in all different rooms and outdoors, I listen to it all day on site without fatigue.

Its a really big space, 250m2 approx. Need to pick up a powered sub as nothing short of a PA system is going to fill this place. Just use it for casual listening while wrenching on bikes, and then for Sunday morning rave's
More I've looked into the SVS the more I don't like it, having an all in one box solution sounds great but watched a few vid reviews and everyone showed the same crappy app to control it.
The bluesound doesn't come with a remote but does have a £50 option to get one additionally.
Might get an ARCAM solo uno for home use, mostly my partner that uses it, pair of small ish book shelf speakers, medium sized good shape room, use it for TV/media/casual listening of radio + bluetooth from a phone (suspect the Arcam doesn't have bluetooth, mental that anyone can put out a multi media all in one solution product that does not support bluetooth these days, understand its maybe not got the highest bitrate).

Anyone got a bluesound powernode 2i, node 2i or an SVS sound base.
Looking for a one box solution for work, needs to be able to stream Tidal, dab radio, Bluetooth from a phone for parties, wifi or network port not fussed. Ideally have a toslink in for other items and a usb storage in, so can just leave a big fat usb stick full of flacs.
Noticed that pretty much every sub £1k streamer doesn't come with a remote, bit of a ballache when you simply want to adjust volume without having to unlock phone each time!
Also realise powernode is stand alone, has its own amp like the svs. Like that svs seems to have stacks of power (class d type), have fairly sensitive speakers that don't seem fussy anyways.
Basically bluesound seems to have the whole budget streamer thing nailed, and using an external dac they apparently sound fine. The SVs doesn't have a USB in, apparently the app is from the before times and also has annoying flashy led lights front, rear and on top! and none have remotes.
