Lenbrook has not handled this very well...Looks like the acquisition of MQA has jinxed them -- not a good look!Looks like their website is down?
quality and reliability , you forgot the headphone output , sofware have years too ...Really... Even at $1K, Dirac should have been mentioned in the promo email, which implies, at least to me, that they don't have Dirac ready to be implemented in these products...
Dirac and XLR outputs are the only features that'll give the Node Icon a shot at competing with the Ultra...
yeah, the THX AAA circuit headphone amp - correct -- but with the 6.5mm port on the side of the device???quality and reliability , you forgot the headphone output , sofware have years too ...
The new NODE also has the DL option. A 4.2 setup is currently possible under BluOS and physical connections to just one device are not necessary. With the new BluOS version 4.0 and higher, larger surround setups should also be possible in the future.Looks like the Icon has Dirac but what version and only single subwoofer output.
I would guess full bandwidth will be available, but there's nothing that specifically says one or the other that I can see.Any idea dirac be full bandwith or just bass control
Any ball park on what cost would be?
You can't compare BluOS with other software. It is also compatible with many home integration systems. BluOS is also used in the professional sector, see Bluesound Professional. And other brands such as NAD, DALI, Roksan, Cyrus, ... are now also using BluOS."software have years too"
