Electrical noise can travel from the Node 2i to your DAC through the coax cable. A streamer with a better power supply or one that would allow for use of a linear power supply (LPS) may make an improvement.
The only way to really know for sure is to audition other streamers and see.
I use a fanless NUC with a HD Plex LPS and there is a significant improvement over the switched mode brick supplied with NUC.
