Multiroom Streamer & Amplifier 2x60W 8 Ohm 24bit 192kHz MQA
Bluesound’s PowerNode 2i network reader and amplifier, successor to PowerNode 2, takes up what made its big brother so successful and adds technical improvements to make it an even more powerful network reader. As a result, its wireless connectivity capabilities are improved with a Bluetooth 4.2 version, providing more stable, fast and secure transmission. Similarly, Ethernet and Wifi modules have been improved to provide higher bandwidth.
Bluesound offers with the PowerNode 2i a duo amplifier and network player to open the doors of high-fidelity audio streaming. The device will easily complement your existing audio system with Bluesound signature and performance. With its wide range of connectivity and features, it will allow you to access your files stored on your computer / NAS, internet radios or your favorite streaming services.
The way music is listened to has changed and PowerNode 2i has been designed to respond to these changes. Simply combine PowerNode 2i with your favorite pair of speakers to instantly enjoy your music, effortlessly with an extremely easy to set up wireless broadcast. Accessing your files stored on your computer / NAS, internet radios or music streaming services is child's play. The amplifier integrated in the device allows 2x60W to be developed under 8 Ohm and uses HybridDigital™ technology, ensuring a fluid, precise and clear reading.
With a wide range of analog and digital inputs and outputs, PowerNode 2i allows you to connect the vast majority of HiFi devices. Thus, if the PowerNode 2i allows you to access streaming audio, it also allows you to connect a CD player, for example, to continue to enjoy your music on a physical medium. And even using a classic source, you can still play your music anywhere in your home.
Equipped with the award-winning amplification technology HybridDigital™, PowerNode 2i becomes capable of providing extremely high-performance amplification. Dynamism and precision are the watchwords for the sound reproduction of the PowerNode 2i. In addition, the very design of the amplification stage makes it possible to limit distortion very largely to protect the signal from any alteration.
PowerNode 2i has improved its connectivity with dual-band WiFi, which offers first-class performance even in a crowded environment. The device also offers Bluetooth with support for aptX HD technology to improve transfer rate and stability. Thus, it is possible to stream files up to 24bits from your smartphone or any other Bluetooth enabled device, but also to transmit your music to headphones and speakers that also have Bluetooth. In addition, each Bluesound player like the PowerNode 2i features a high-end DAC to convert high quality files and even MQA files.
With the integrated Airplay 2 protocol for easy communication with Apple devices, PowerNode 2i is one of the most flexible streamers. Many music streaming services are available such as Qobuz, Spotify or Deezer but also internet radios via the BluOS Controller application. You can also access your downloads, iTunes library or files stored on your NAS without having to turn on a computer.
As the PowerNode 2i is both an amplifier and a multiroom network player, it is very easy to play your music throughout your home. To control the entire connected system, everything is done via the BluOS application, which offers easy flow management.
