Hello Bluesound!

I just received the new Node 2021, and pretty pumped about listening to it!

I just have a small quastion for you guys, as I know bluesound is part of the Lenbrook group ans so is NAD;

I have a NADC510 DAC (2015) and was wondering if the internal DAC of the new NODE2021 is nearly as good or if I should stick to bypassing through my NADC510 for better quality? I must say I can't find all the specs about the both and they are hard to compare..

So should I go straight to the amp with an RCA or  bypass with a COAX to my C510 and back to my amp? Which one do you reckon will have better performances?

Thankyou for your answer!

Etienne

  Hi Etienne

  That really is for your ears to decide... not ours. Try both and go with what works for you.
