Hi, Node 2i owner and love it but wonder if it could be even better.  There is now a polish made power supply "upgrade" available for these.  Does it actually improve the output sound quality?  Are you looking at incorporating a better PSU in the next Node 2i?

  The NODE 2i has been discontinued and replaced with the new NODE N130. No changes were made to the PSU as none were required. Changes were made to the DAC to reduce the SNR.

  The Bluesound NODE is a finished goods product and not a DIY kit - make unauthorised changes to your equipment will not only void your warranty but can permanently damage your equipment. We do not in any circumstances recommend such changes.

  Bluesound are happy with the PSU and I am certain no changes were made to the new NODE in this respect. 
  
  

  As for the sound have a Google for users who have upgraded their PSUs. Be aware that any modification would invalidate the warranty.

  Thankyou for your prompt reply.  My Node is already out of the warranty period.

  Are you actually referring me to Google?  Being an aircraft engineer, I'm looking for something more substantial than subjective user opinions....
