Now featuring HDMI (ARC) the Bluesound Powernode 2i (with HDMI) makes the best even better.
Now with HDMI ARC
This multi-award-winner is made even better with the latest addition of an HDMI socket. Now you can connect your TV, UHD Blu-ray player or TV streamer, using this high quality and ubiquitous connection. The ARC (Audio Return Channel) function lets you take the sound from a compatible TV using a higher quality connection than optical digital.
Generation 2i
Version Gen 2i brings a whole raft of streaming improvements. Apple AirPlay 2 is now supported, as is aptX HD Bluetooth. The HD version of aptX Bluetooth streaming supports 24-bit audio, making this the best quality Bluetooth connection to date. Another bonus is the adoption of dual-band wi-fi. The new wi-fi chip lets you take advantage of the less noisy 5 GHz band. This results in faster connection times and fewer interruptions from other network traffic.
Two-way Bluetooth for compatibly with Bluetooth headphones
Another bonus with this Gen 2i version is two-way Bluetooth. This not only lets you connect up Bluetooth music sources put also outputs to Bluetooth accessories, primarily Bluetooth headphones in this case.
Improved connections
Featuring two 3.5mm optical and analogue inputs, the POWERNODE 2i is more accommodating than before. With the extra input you can now connect up your TV and another source, such as a games console or Blu-ray player.

Since it was first established, Bluesound has been committed to the highest quality, easy to use multi-room streaming system. Hi-Res music playback is at the heart of Bluesound, which is just one of the reasons it sounds so good. Don’t just take our word for it though; take a look at the myriad of rave reviews. What Hi-Fi, Stuff, EISA and AVS Forum are just a few of the big publications and sites to award Bluesound their highest laurels.

Good sound and features
For the price, the sound quality is surprisingly good. The Bluos app is completely stable, easy to use, loads artwork reasonably quickly, and reads everything from a small data stick stuck in the back of the amp.
Playlists simply don't work - the facility is there in the menu, but you cannot create them. Perhaps this is because I'm reading my FLAC files from USB, rather than a NAS. Who knows. It's not a big issue for me.
HDMI input from the TV means the TV now sounds great - that's a big upgrade all on its own.
Given that you also get streaming music services and remote control from your phone (or tablet, or PC) this is something of a bargain product.

Great sound
I bought this to replace my old collection of hi fi separates. It was very easy to set up using the app and worked well with wifi. The bluetooth works very well with Spotify and the selection of radio stations and podcasts is terrific. All in all a great piece of kit. Thoroughly
recommended!

Excellent advice on creating an entirely new syste
3 weeks ago, after an hour on the phone with my Richer Sounds sales person he created what I think is the hifi system of the future. I bought the excellent Bluesound node 2i and an amazing pair of Focal bookshelf speakers with the Focal speaker stands. The performance of the system is frankly amazing. This will be the way forward to an entirely new concept of hifi which is very small but produces a very large sound. I couldn't be happier that Richer Sounds put this together for me.

Easy access to my existing server
I bought this network music player and amplifier to access my existing music server and internet music using my existing speakers.
The Powernode performs perfectly and the BluOs system and App are very easy to use

Great sound and features in a small package.
I wanted a system for my home office so needed that sounded good but didn't take up a lot of room. Got this, wired it upto some Monitor Audio Silver 50 speakers and it sounds fantastic.
The Blu-Os software is great (much better than the Naim streaming software), although I use Roon which it works flawlessly with (on a wired connection).
Totally recommend it and good advice from Patrick in the Stockport store.
