Hi,

I am considering to buy the NODE 2i in order to wirelessly stream the audio from my computer (Windows 10) to my amplifier. Is this possible with NODE 2i or I can just stream one of the supported cloud services?

Thank you in advance.

  Hi Theo

  Ditch the computer and use one of the Music Services such as TIDAL, Spotify, Amazon, or many others.

  If you however have a bunch of downloaded music, we can do that too by creating a network share to it and stream directly from the BluOS App. Here's how; https://support.bluos.net/hc/en-us/articles/360000186887

  Hi Tony,

  Thank you for your answer. I have my music on AppleMusic so I guess I could use airplay, although I am considering a transition to TIDAL. Although I am also interested in being able to stream the audio from Netflix or HBO on my computer to my amplifier. Is that possible?

  Players with a 2i designation are Certifed Apple AirPlay endpoints - and yes you can still use the line in out of the headphone of your laptop.

  Last year, we added an HDMI port to the Bluesound POWERNODE for Audio Return Channel specifically for this.

  I am not sure that we are talking about the same thing. What I meant was audio from Netflix that plays on my computer to be streamed through the Node 2i to my amplifier wirelessly. So Netlfix(PC) ---> Node 2i ---> Amp. Is that possible? 

  Sorry if I am sounding dumb or if I am using confusing terms but I am a newbie in the Hi-Fi world.
