Bluesound node 2i arrived. Yup does everything I need it to, just using its own dac for now, sounds fine decent level out of it (rca to an amp), app does most things except doesn't allow as much as Tidal's own app can offer. Bit more complicated to browse and que up music, maybe there is a way of using Tidal's app to drive the bluOS app instead but not got that far yet.
Lack of remote slightly annoying for volume. But like that the phone (controlling it) can drop out off the network and the node will continue on without issue.
DAB radio integration fairly good for live music, and being able to scan back through the current days music on that station.
