Bluesound's All-in-One Music Streamer and Player
Bluesound's Pulse 2i is the most complete high fidelity streaming system available. The Pulse 2i fills large spaces with rich, clear audio. It makes everything sound great, from the latest hi-res files to whatever else you play. When it comes to your music, don’t settle for anything less than high-fidelity.
Stream It Like You Mean It
With the Pulse 2i, Bluesound's most powerful speaker just got a whole lot more powerful. The Pulse 2i gets a complete acoustic makeover with all new driver and amp technologies that more than double the output in the bass frequencies, while lowering distortion. Upgraded tweeters expand the sweet spot for listening, and the most sophisticated DSP engine available extends a true stereo sound field far beyond the limits of other all-in-one speakers. High-end DAC technology built into every Bluesound player can decode and stream MQA files in all their lossless glory.
Rule Your Sonic Domain
In addition to providing best-in-class dual band WiFi, the Pulse 2i now has Apple AirPlay 2 built-in for easy integration into the Apple ecosystem, making it more flexible than ever. Bluetooth performance is seriously stepped up with native support for aptX HD, giving it the ability to transmit studio quality music to Bluetooth headphones and speakers.
Control with Your Smartphone or Tablet
Play, pause, and select your streaming tracks from the touch-sensitive controls on the top panel. For added functionality, the Pulse 2i, like all Bluesound players, is controlled from your smartphone or tablet using the free BluOS app. The app brings all you music sources together for complete control whether they are in the cloud, on your computer or phone, or from almost any other source via the various digital and analog inputs. Whatever the musical source, Bluesound will play it in the highest resolution, all the way up to studio master-quality resolution.
Easy Setup, Impressive Performance
Unlike many other wireless audio products, the Bluesound system is incredibly easy to set up and use. And the performance is unsurpassed.
"The entire system is designed for easy setup with no computer required. Users operate it with a smartphone or tablet BlueOS app," notes Grant Clauser in an ElectronicHouse.com review of the original Bluesound system for October 18, 2013 "Music from the Vault includes cover art to make it easy to find the album you're looking for… I was able to listen to all the Bluesound components in a hotel suite in New York this week. The performance was pretty impressive on all of them."
"For those people looking for a nice, simple, convenient and good-sounding one box/one app solution for ripping CDs, playing your ripped and downloaded files, streaming music from Internet radio, Rdio, Slacker Radio, and Qobuz, and purchasing music from HighResAudio, the Bluesound Vault has got your number and its one of one in today's marketplace," reports Michael Lavorgna in his Audiostream.com, January 21, 2013 review of the original Bluesound system. "Just add an iOS or Android device as a remote and you'll be rollin' in tunes in no time."
Bluesound Music Players
Bluesound players are designed and engineered by audiophiles. They have been tested and perfected at one of North America's most advanced sound labs by some of the same engineers and musicians who started the original hi-fi revolution in the 1970s, including PSB's Paul Barton.
Add other Bluesound components for more functionality. "The entire system is designed for easy setup with no computer required," reports Grant Clauser at ElectronicHouse.com. "Playlists can be created on the fly. Each component can be controlled individually, or grouped, so users can play different songs in each room or the same music all over the house."
