Can a Bluesound Node 2i power supply really be upgraded?

@ianrmack 

Anything to report regarding the T. Pardo LPS?

Installed the Teddy Pardo LPS to my Bluesound Node (2021) last week.

install was smooth but not quite like the pics on TP web site. They miss a few things.

very happy with result. What is delivered is simple: fuller, darker, juicier sound.

well worth it. I use the Node as “transport only” as I have a Pontus II DAC and since I had the TP 5v already with a Chord Qutest, i only had to buy the kit and cable for $100. No brainer. 

I got the PD Creative update from Poland and installed it in a node2.  It then requires an out board linear power supply which I didn’t know when I did it.. however  I got one from Amazon and installed a synergistic black fuse, and used a thick shielded 2.5mm cable to hook the power supply to the node.

May I ask what the total cost was?
It seems that the Teddy Pardo kit is expensive compared to the one from PD from Poland, but then there's more required than just the adapter from PD Creative, right?

So, I'm wondering what the PD setup costs, after adding in the other necessaries.

Thanks.

@jjss49 Ever more ahead with yours?

I bought the one from Poland; the total was US $129 -- that's "all in".  That included shipping and the kit required no additional parts.  Easy installation, and it works great!  Could not be happier.

@hilde45 Less than $200 all in. Easy to install. The power supply is available on Amazon. The power supply cord I got on eBay. The AC power cord I had made was a Cullen. As it’s broken in, everything I play off the node( streaming and files)  has improved dramatically. Extremely quiet….spooky as compared to without the supply. This has taken some time to break in, buts it’s noticeable even on back ground music playing. It’s held me off on buying a new streamer and was fun to install.
