I think you really need to look at the Bluesound Node 2i. The Bluesound software can be run from any device and provides access to a wide range of applications. You may prefer other UIs, but the UI is pretty straightforward. While it is true that the analog outputs are not the best, I don't think you'll notice much given that you're using a vintage Denon receiver. If you decide you've outgrown the analog outputs, you can use the digital outputs by adding an external DAC. I think the Node is a great choice if you want a complete, hassle free, out of the box solution. trappy 1 (1) holo audio red (hqp naa) > chord dave > luxman cl-38uc/mq-88uc > kef reference 1 (2) simaudio moon mind 2 > chord qutest > luxman sq-n150 > monitor audio gold gx100 Link to comment
