Launched in 2024, the Bluesound Node (N132) is a revamped version of the world's most popular network player, designed for the modern audiophile. This device is the ultimate bridge that connects your existing Hi-Fi system to the world of digital music streaming in the highest possible quality.
The key upgrade is the built-in high-end ESS Sabre D/A converter (ES9039Q2M), which, combined with a redesigned circuit, provides even clearer, more dynamic and detailed sound with extremely low distortion. The acclaimed BluOS platform gives you easy access to all your favorite music services, internet radio or your own digital music collection via an intuitive app.
The new generation also brings a premium headphone amplifier with THX AAA™ technology and a full-size (6.35mm) jack for uncompromising personal listening. Connectivity remains exceptional: HDMI eARC, digital and analog inputs, and two-way Bluetooth aptX Adaptive allow you to connect virtually any device.
