The Bluesound POWERNODE 2's your HiFi set's music center. Use this amplifier to add passive speakers to your Bluesound multi-room system, without the use of a receiver.

The powerful, integrated amplifier controls any speaker system with ease.

Because there is not yet a review about this device to be found.. I will briefly describe my first impressions for you. Connecting and connecting to the WiFi network went completely smoothly. It also recognizes your phone and the bluetooth at the same time .. your network such as a nas and or a computer will find it under settings in the app .. but you have to refer it yourself, which is not always easy. The device also has no standby mode. All lights Inc on top of the device just stay on, this can only be dimmed or turned off in the app. You are also dependent on the bluesound app itself. Other apps like bubble upnp just don't work. Unfortunate. The sound quality is otherwise okay, nice highs and mids, only a lot of lows are missing. I had the nad d3020 before. And you would think it's the same amplification module. But how powerful the nad sounds. How thin this bluesound sounds. But of course that is also taste. Speakers I use are the usher s520. Hope my review is of some use to you.

Fantastic, detailed sound. In combination with KEF LS50, NordOst PurpleFlare quite heavy bass - but this is probably due to the KEFs. Excellent, fast service from BlueSound, also for getting the network shares working. All in all very satisfied.
