Bluesound launches limited Edition NODE X
Bluesound has launched a limited-run anniversary edition NODE X streamer to commemorate its tenth year in the industry.
This unique silver-finished device pushes the boundaries of its category by incorporating advanced componentry, delivering exceptional audio performance and functionality with the venerable ESS 9028Q2M Sabre DAC for musicality, near-zero levels of clock jitter, ultra-low noise and a wide dynamic range.

“NODE X re-imagines some of the best parts of the critically acclaimed iconic NODE’s product design and takes ‘just add streaming’ to new performance levels for the next generation of audiophiles,” Amber Technology general manager Nathan Brady says.
“It’s exciting to offer the product locally to Australians who can now celebrate a decade of audio excellence with NODE X and their favourite pair of performance headphones.”
The headphone amplifier is driven by cutting-edge THX Achromatic Audio Amplifier (AAA) technology with patented feed-forward error correction resulting in infinitesimally low levels of noise, distortion and power consumption. Along with the 2.5cm headphone jack, the NODE X delivers a no-compromise headphone listening experience.
The NODE X features enhanced dual-band Wi-Fi to deliver the best in-class wireless stream quality. More than 20 natively integrated music services and thousands of internet radio stations are accessible directly on the NODE X or play from a personal digital music library held on a computer or external drive through the intuitive BluOS app for iOS, Android, Mac or PC computers.
The BluOS platform is the only platform that can support up to 64 players all streaming up to 24-bit/192kHz hi-res audio. It also supports lossless file formats and MQA playback which allows music lovers to listen to the actual studio masters of favourite albums as they were intended to be heard.
Like a jack of all trades, the NODE X is equipped with all the inputs and outputs which means listeners can bring music into the NODE X using HDMI eARC, WiFi, Gigabit Ethernet, Apple AirPlay 2, aptX HD Bluetooth or USB Type A.
Multiple Bluesound speakers can be grouped to the NODE X around the home to create an intuitive multi-room music system. The NODE X can be directly controlled from a smart device or computer, touch panel controls with presets, voice assistants like Apple’s Siri, Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant or by using the included RC1 Remote Control which offers one-touch access to any Bluesound player within its proximity.
The NODE X can also integrate into a smart home with full-feature drivers for Crestron, Control4, URC, RTI, ELAN and other popular home control systems.
