The NODE N132 by Bluesound is an exceptional performance music streamer that redefines the way we experience audio. Building on the legacy of its predecessor, the NODE N132 features re-engineered components and state-of-the-art circuitry designed to elevate sound performance to new heights. Whether you are streaming from popular services like Spotify, TIDAL, or Apple Music, or playing your personal music library in high-resolution formats, the NODE N132 ensures you hear every detail in remarkable clarity.

At the heart of the NODE N132 is the ESS ES9039Q2M SABRE® DAC, a high-end digital-to-analog converter that guarantees precision audio output. Paired with an upgraded quad-core 1.8 GHz ARM® Cortex™ A53 processor, the NODE N132 can handle high-fidelity audio streams with ease, offering unparalleled clarity and virtually zero distortion. The result? A more refined listening experience, where every nuance of your music comes through, whether it’s from your favourite amplifier or powered speakers.

One of the standout features of the NODE N132 is its integration of THX AAA™ headphone amplifier technology, delivering the world’s most linear response and minimal distortion for lifelike, audiophile-quality headphone listening. With the full-sized 1/4″ headphone output, audiophiles can connect their high-performance headphones for a rich, immersive sound experience.

Beyond its impressive audio components, the NODE N132 offers a host of connectivity options, making it the perfect addition to any home audio setup. Whether you’re using HDMI eARC, Optical inputs, or USB connections, the NODE N132 integrates seamlessly with your existing gear. It also features AirPlay 2, enabling you to stream audio from your Apple devices directly to the NODE N132, and aptX Adaptive Bluetooth for wireless streaming from more apps and services.

For those looking to build a multi-room audio system, the NODE N132 offers wireless connectivity with Bluesound Players, giving you the ability to enjoy high-fidelity sound in every room of your home without interruptions or dropouts. With dual-band Wi-Fi and gigabit Ethernet, your music will stream smoothly throughout the entire house, controlled effortlessly through the BluOS app.

The NODE N132 isn’t just about sound quality; it’s about creating the ultimate listening environment. With Dirac Live Room Correction (available via a future software update), you can fine-tune your system to eliminate unwanted distortions like standing waves and reverberations. This advanced room correction technology uses a high-sensitivity microphone (sold separately) to measure your room’s acoustics and adjust your system for optimal sound, making every space sound its best.

The NODE N132 is not only versatile in terms of audio quality, but it also offers user-friendly features to enhance your experience. With five programmable quick-touch presets, you can easily access your favourite sources with a simple touch. The proximity sensor adds convenience, allowing the NODE N132 to power on or off automatically when you approach or move away from the device.

In terms of usability, it’s equipped with a sleek user interface and intuitive controls, ensuring a hassle-free experience for all users. And with the inclusion of IR learning, the NODE N132 can learn commands from your existing remote controls, so you can consolidate all your media controls into one device.

If you’re looking to upgrade your home audio system, the NODE N132 is the ultimate solution, offering world-class audio performance, flexible connectivity, and advanced features for a truly immersive listening experience.

Goods must be returned within a reasonable time. 

If any goods cannot be easily returned to us due to their size, the fault or because they have been affixed or installed in your premises, please contact us and we will arrange an inspection to assess the goods.

Goods returned for repair will be assessed and/or repaired within a reasonable time. You may be provided with an indicative repair time, which time may vary due to reasons beyond ours or the repairer’s reasonable control, such as part availability and incorrect fault description.

You may be required to pay labour, assessment and/or freight fees, such as where goods are assessed to have been damaged by misuse or accident, or where your rights under the Australian Consumer Law or any manufacturer’s warranty do not apply.

We will not be responsible for any data loss.

In some circumstances, goods presented for repair may be replaced by refurbished goods of the same type rather than being repaired. Refurbished parts may be used to repair the goods.
