Auralic Aries Mini vs Bluesound Node ll vs Sonos


Wondering if anyone has experience with either the node ll or the mini. Looking for a possible upgrade from Sonos for streaming Deezer Elite. I've read the interface on the mini only works with Ipad. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

@ justtubes2 that is the direction I am headed I have talked to others who basically echoed what your saying about the wyred modded sonos. 

@justubes2 where can one find a linear power supply for a Sonos connect? I see references to them but cannot seem to figure out where to buy one. Thanks.
Something to keep in mind with Sonos: you're limited to CD quality audio.  Also, make sure to turn of compression under advanced settings.  If you don't, Sonos will compress your CD quality audio while streaming it from your source.
Basically, you will find a few mod companies for the Sonos.

A power supply mod replaces the whole switch mode tiny PSU, which W4S does not do.

Look at fidelity audio which has the psu mod but not the upsampling portion.

Either get the W4S and have a custom psu connected, it runs 12v and also a 3.3v which can be tapped of the 12v, 2A psu will be fine.

Or, if you cannot have the PSU customed (seperate unit), you could go with offering with a linear PSU and add the W4S remedy reclocker. This option adds more in cables.

The works run into to an esoteric dac equals redbook cd's played by the esoteric transport, though very slight and negligable presentation differences.

This works if you are not into hi-rez music, i don't find many titles for hirez interesting. A lot is also hit and miss! Totally satisfied with cd quailty upsampled.

The reason why upsampling is important with the sonos is that it opens up the sound making  music more transparent and have better separation (more hirez sounding, if you would) and you really need this option together with a good psu, like for any piece of equipment is critical.

I do run my router direct with wireless function off, power also by a linear psu.
