About the NODE

Connect the NODE to your amplifier and it becomes a modern streaming system: Spotify, TIDAL, Qobuz, internet radio, podcasts and your own music library, all in high resolution and all controlled from the BluOS app. The latest generation adds an ESS SABRE ES9039Q2M converter, DSD playback and a full-size THX AAA headphone output.

HDMI eARC with Dolby Digital decoding brings your TV into the system too, and AirPlay 2 and aptX Adaptive Bluetooth mean any phone can play to it. Add more Bluesound players around the house and the NODE becomes one room of a multi-room system.

Genuine UK-supplied Bluesound from an authorised dealer. Want it set up properly? We install Bluesound across the New Forest and the south coast. See our audio and video work.

Questions about the NODE

Will the NODE work with my old amplifier?

Almost certainly. Any amplifier or receiver with a spare analogue (RCA) input works, and if it has an optical or coaxial input you can use the NODE as a transport for its own DAC instead.

Can I connect my TV to the NODE?

Yes. Use the HDMI eARC socket and TV sound plays through your hi-fi, with the TV remote controlling the volume.
