CONNECT EVERYTHING

The NODE is packed with digital and analogue inputs and outputs, making it incredibly versatile. You can bring in audio from your TV and gaming consoles with HDMI eARC, while dual-band Wi-Fi and gigabit ethernet keep the music streaming without dropouts or interruptions. A proximity-sensing touch panel provides quick control and access to up to five programmable presets. Available in matte black and white finishes, the NODE fits in the home perfectly.

SMART ACOUSTICS

Your NODE comes ready to intelligently fight bad room acoustics with Dirac Live, which is 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.
