The Bluesound Node 2 is a replacement for a Squeezebox Duet. Both units are connected are connected to my receiver via TosLink. The Node 2 sounds significantly better than the Duet.
When setting this device up I recommend the following to get the best results: 1) If you are using a dual or tri-band wireless router, have one band set to wireless N only and have as few as devices as possible connected to that band to minimize dropouts. Connect the Node 2 to that band. 2) When I began using the Node 2 I found the volume output to be very low compared to the Duet. To correct this, in Settings, Audio change from variable to fixed. This will result in similar volume output to the Duet.
