    That is really a question for your ears to decide. I can say your Bluesound NODE N130 uses a Texas Instruments PCM 5242 Burr-Brown DAC, which has been implemented with a differential output design in an endeavour to cancel out as much unwanted noise as possible.

    In comparison, the NODE (N130) measures in at -113dB SNR and 0.002% distortion due to this change -- a notable improvement over the NODE 2i's -110dB SNR and 0.005% distortion.

    All Bluesound DACs are precisely tuned to be neutral allowing for the intention of the most accurate and faithful reproduction of the recording as possible.
