Bluesound POWERNODE

Source, control, and amplification come packed into the compact and minimalist POWERNODE. Get the most out of your favorite speakers with an award-winning, audiophile-grade amplifier that features 80 watts per channel of zero-distortion power. A premium DAC design flawlessly delivers hi-res, studio-quality music, including support for FLAC, MQA, and other popular file formats. The BluOS Controller app connects you to popular streaming services like Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz, SiriusXM, and dozens of others. You can also play files from your own music library through Apple AirPlay2, aptX HD Bluetooth, or even a network-connected drive or USB hard drive.

Whether it’s one room or many rooms, the POWERNODE is a versatile workhorse. It can be placed either freestanding or in a custom installation rack, allowing you to easily toggle back and forth amongst a number of listening setups. Looking for a traditional 2-channel audiophile listening experience? Just add a pair of your favorite speakers. Add the PULSE SUB+ to your 2-channel setup to create a capable and musical 2.1 wireless system. Bring a pair of optional PULSE FLEX 2i speakers to the party as rear channel additions to your 2.1 system for a wireless Dolby surround sound home theater experience. Sprinkle other Bluesound players around your home for a whole-home multiroom audio solution.

The POWERNODE supports HDMI eARC, dual-band Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet, Apple AirPlay 2, two-way aptX HD Bluetooth, optical, 3.5mm, and USB Type-A connections. Bring music into your POWERNODE from dozens of internet radio and streaming services, Bluetooth devices, TV and gaming consoles, network or local hard drives, nearby Apple devices, CD players, and many others. Then send your music into your favorite speakers, other Bluesound players or BluOS devices, Bluetooth headphones, wired headphones, Apple AirPlay devices, or other network-connected speakers.

With BluOS, you can easily create a DIY multiroom hi-res audio system with a few taps of the BluOS Controller app. Additional hands-free controls are available through voice assistants like Siri, the Google Assistant, or Alexa.
