That's what I do for Amazon (not the HD) and Tidal, although only for casual listening away from "the chair". Not vinyl, but sounds pretty good.

I have a main system with separates. But i've been trying for years to build a system around my spare speakers. I took a look at the separate options but this is for my bedroom.It would be optimal to just have one box do it all. I can build something now but I'd rather de-clutter. Hi-res is really not important to me, but lossless is. I do like the Sonos AMP, I can plug my turntable into it and just have a turntable and the smart amp, and that's it.
Already have Sonos in the main system by way of the Connect. I tried the Sonos AMP already, it went well with the speakers.
If the option is HEOS which I've tried (crap software), BlueOS which I've tried (decent software) and Sonos which I already use (excellent software) it really boils down to how important high-res is. Not that much of that out there, just re-hashed old reel to reel archives recorded at a high bitrate.

I honestly believe you can't go wrong with either one. I would lean towards the Sonos Amp since you already have and enjoy the Sonos OS.
I have the BS Node 2 streamer in the main system and use Sonos in the bedroom. I enjoy both very much.
With different DACs and class-D modules the Powernode and the Amp may sound a bit different from each other but I doubt one would be appreciably better than the other. Again, I don't think you could go wrong with either one.
Cheers,
Scott
cheers to you too!
I'll lean towards Sonos. Now I have to figure out what kind of speaker cables to use and move on from there.
thanks all for the help.
