The Node can be used with and external DAC. I used an Ayre Codex with mine.
I eventually went with Innuos, and use Roon as a system manager.
The Bluesound Node is quite a buy for the money.
Not knowing your system, I would say get the Node and see if it is good enough. (BTW- Though the Node does unfold MQA partially, I never found MQA to be significantly better than a lossless High Rez format).
YMMV
