(its own ap is fine, not fantastic)
I'm also using a Blusound Node with a Pardo linear power supply feeding a Denefrips DAC. Consider a streaming service that uses lossless compression (FLAC) and also offers high-res (24bit, 96kHz)...you'll be quite surprised just how good and analog-ish it can sound. I use Tidal, many also like Qobuz. Noticeably better SQ than Spotify.
