Is the node 2 with Mytek the prefered setup? I am in the same boat. I just what to stream Tidal with MQA without a computer using WiFi. I believe my signal strength and download speed should be more than adequate based on my analysis tools
I want to stream Tidal to Mytek Brooklyn DAC ...
I've been streaming music from Tidal through a Sonos Connect that's hooked into my main rig -- Sonos to DAC to preamp, etc. -- but I'm looking to improve the sound. I'm interested in MQA, when available, but will be plenty happy to stream non-MQA files from Tidal, too. If I get a Mytek Brooklyn DAC, which I'm close to pulling the trigger on, what streamer would fit the bill? From what I've read, it would seem that a Bluesound Node 2 might do the job. Are there others -- better options? -- that I should be considering?
As my router is a fairly long distance from my stereo, I'd very much prefer wireless solutions, though I'd suppose I could find a way to run a fairly long ethernet cable -- down into the basement, etc. -- all the way to the router, if that's the only viable solution.
That said, when a wired connection is necessary, would plugging the streamer into an Airport -- Extreme or Express -- on the network effectively fool the streamer into thinking it was wired to the router?
Thanks very much for any help you can provide an old-timer on this front.
