Bluesound Powernode Wireless Multi-Room Music Streaming Amplifier

The Bluesound POWERNODE is a versatile, high‑performance streaming amplifier that brings together powerful sound, ease of use and advanced smart‑home integration. With up to 100 W per channel (stereo) or 80 W per channel in a 3‑channel LCR configuration, it offers enough power to drive bookshelf or floor‑standing speakers with impressive clarity and headroom. Its built‑in streaming engine (running BluOS) gives you direct access to dozens of streaming services, internet radio stations and your own music library — no separate streamer needed.

HDMI eARC connectivity makes it ideal for TV or projector setups, while dual‑band Wi‑Fi, Gigabit Ethernet and aptX Bluetooth support wireless connectivity and two‑way pairing. The POWERNODE handles high‑resolution audio flawlessly — FLAC, ALAC, WAV, MQA and DSD256 are all supported — delivering rich, dynamic, detailed playback whether you’re listening to vinyl‑quality music, films or gaming soundtracks.

Additional features like a high‑current headphone output with THX AAA technology, subwoofer output, Dolby Digital surround support (via wireless rear speakers), and planned support for room correction make the POWERNODE a flexible, future‑proof centrepiece for both stereo and home‑cinema systems. For anyone wanting a “just add speakers” high‑fidelity setup with modern streaming convenience, the POWERNODE is one of the best all‑in‑one options available.
