Bluesound NODE ICON Music Streamer
Bluesound Icon brings what Audiophiles want most in a streamer:
BENCHMARK SOUND QUALITY
With carefully selected componentry, and a masterfully engineered Bluesound Dual-Mono design with two ESS SABRE ES9039Q2M DAC chipsets, the NODE ICON sets a new benchmark for wireless music streamers. It uses the latest fourth generation ESS Hyperstream technology to let you experience sound with superior dynamic range, ultra-low distortion, and the highest possible resolution ever heard. From engineering to performance, the NODE ICON is the best streamer Bluesound has ever built.
BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED FOR THE AUDIO OBSESSED
The NODE ICON features an all-new industrial design, with an aluminum cabinet construction, seamlessly integrated with the large front glass panel and the gorgeous 5" non-touch display. Its sleek gloss black finish blends seamlessly into any existing setup, with audiophile-grade connections to support high-quality performance. It also features built-in IR learning and a proximity-sensing touch panel that provides quick control and access for up to five programmable presets, volume, and playback controls.
STREAM EVERYTHING
Stream all the music ever recorded, from popular music streaming services to your own digital music libraries, and access everything you listen to, including hi-res FLAC, MQA, and DSD 256, in the BluOS app. Apple AirPlay 2 and aptX Adaptive Bluetooth are also built-in to let you enjoy even more music from more apps and services. With HDMI eARC, you can easily connect the NODE ICON to your TV with a single cable and bring hi-res music streaming together with your movie and gaming experiences.
GO BEYOND THE HIFI SYSTEM
The NODE ICON can wirelessly connect to Bluesound speakers and stereo components to create a multi-room music system connected by BluOS throughout your whole home. With dual-band Wi-Fi for dropout free listening, you can play your new favorite track everywhere or listen to different music and genres in different rooms with total control from your phone, tablet, or desktop.
WORLD-CLASS HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER TECHNOLOGY
Lifelike headphone listening is made possible by THX AAA technology, the headphone amplifier that boasts the world's most linear response. Its patented feed-forward error correction results in remarkably low noise and distortion, revealing exceptional soundstage and clarity. Connect your high-performance headphones to the left or right full-sized 1/4" headphone jacks and enjoy audiophile listening without fuss or compromise.
SMART ACOUSTICS
The NODE ICON comes ready to intelligently fight bad room acoustics with Dirac Live, available as an upgrade directly from Dirac. Use Dirac's app to measure your room acoustics and eradicate bass traps, echoes, and other unwanted distortions from your audio. The result is clear, balanced, and detailed sound for your music and movie soundtracks. A calibration kit with a high-sensitivity microphone is also required and available from Bluesound.
