Bluesound POWERNODE N331 - Black - White

Description

High-Performance Streaming Amplifier
The Bluesound POWERNODE (2025) redefines the all-in-one streaming amplifier, fusing powerful amplification with high-resolution audio streaming in a compact and elegant form. Delivering 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms (or 80W x3 in LCR mode), this third-generation model combines audiophile-grade DirectDigital™ amplification and robust connectivity, serving as a versatile centerpiece for both music and home cinema enthusiasts.

Optimized for Modern AV Integration
With an integrated HDMI eARC input, the POWERNODE easily connects to your TV, offering simplified setup for a powerful stereo or wireless Dolby Digital® surround experience. It eliminates the need for bulky AV receivers by handling LCR outputs natively and supporting wireless surrounds through BluOS Bonded Speaker Link. This allows for high-performance cinematic sound without a complicated installation.

BluOS Multi-Room Streaming
The built-in BluOS™ platform enables access to over 23 music services including TIDAL, Qobuz, Spotify, and Amazon Music, supporting high-resolution formats up to 24-bit/192kHz and DSD256. Whether listening to internet radio or a digital music library, users can stream audio to any room in the house with full control via the BluOS Controller app, available on iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS.

Headphone Listening Redefined
For private sessions, the POWERNODE includes a 6.3mm headphone output powered by THX AAA™ technology. This advanced amplifier design minimizes distortion and maximizes detail for a truly high-fidelity headphone listening experience. Additionally, two-way Bluetooth with aptX™ Adaptive allows wireless listening and device streaming with CD-like quality.

Elegant Control and Smart Design
A touch-sensitive LED glass panel with 5 preset buttons and a proximity sensor enables intuitive access to favorite sources and playback functions. Finished in matte black or white, the chassis complements any modern decor. A minimalist footprint and included accessories make it simple to integrate the POWERNODE into any home setup.

Versatile Connectivity and Future-Ready Features
Beyond HDMI, the POWERNODE features optical/analog combo input, USB-C for PC audio, RCA subwoofer out (plus wireless sub support), and USB-A for external drives. Wireless connectivity includes dual-band Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet. A future update will enable Dirac Live Room Correction for precision acoustic calibration.
