Mint Bluesound Node 3 streamer: $410 choice of white or black

[chronometers]

I have two Bluesound node 3s (as in review below).  One is white and one black.  I used them about 10 hours each.  I do not need two of these (although if you have multiple systems, you can control multiple streamers from one point...smart phone, tablet or computer).  I paid an average of $410/ea. so I would like to sell them for.  They are essentially like new w/ box, papers and accessories.  

 

Here is node 3 review:

The built in DAC is super too.

 

I use one streaming through a PSE Studio SL pre to Studio V mono amps to La Scala speakers.  With high resolution source such a Tidal or Amazon HD, the sound is phenomenal! 

 

Price $410.

so buyer takes their pick white or black and you keep the other?

Is there a physical remote control or is everything controlled by an app? iPhone compatible?

 

This device may be just what I need to get my new RB 35s singing without investing in another receiver.

Yes, I will keep the other one.  This is a great solution to streaming music and has a high quality DAC built in.

An optional remote is available from Bluesound.  However, it is not necessary and of limited use as it only controls volume and allows for skipping ahead or back.  The unit is controlled for the Bluesound App on a smartphone or tablet. 

 

I've been using this system for 9 months or so and the high-resolution streaming from Amazon HD, Apple music, and Tidal is really phenomenal.

Thank you for your reply. I'm reading a lot of good things on the web about this device.

 

I have a whole house cat six network connected to my computer. I stream movies from that. Does this unit have an ethernet in port so I can connect to my network & stream music from my computer?

I think so.  There is an ethernet port.  From Bluesound's website:

PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS.

Bring music into your NODE using HDMI eARC, Wi-Fi or Ethernet, Apple AirPlay 2, aptX™ HD Bluetooth, or USB, to hear audio content from streaming services, TV, and your own music library. Listen to your music through your HiFi system or through wired or wireless headphones, by connecting to the RCA, TOSLINK optical, aptX™ HD Bluetooth, 3.5mm jack, Apple devices, or other Bluesound or BluOS players.

I have one unit connected to my router using an ethernet connection and the other is controlled and streams wirelessly.  If you can connect via ethernet, I think that is the best way.
