The POWERNODE (2025) is an integrated amplifier with built-in DAC from Bluesound, a Canadian manufacturer known for accessible multi-room streaming amplification. The POWERNODE (2025) brings Bluesound's considered engineering to a compact, comprehensive all-in-one solution.
Key specs that matter
Three single-ended inputs are provided. Output power is 100W into 8 ohms in stereo configuration. Signal-to-noise ratio is 102dB, with total harmonic distortion plus noise at 0.005%. At a compact 220 x 70 x 190mm and just 1.9kg, the POWERNODE (2025) maintains a remarkably small footprint for a complete integrated amplifier with built-in streaming and DAC functionality.
Sound and use context
Expect dependable, accessible amplification combined with comprehensive built-in streaming capability, packed into a remarkably compact and lightweight chassis suited to a variety of system placements.
Pairing
The built-in DAC and streaming platform cover digital sources directly without needing separate outboard components, simplifying system assembly for buyers wanting a comprehensive one-box solution.
Alternatives
Bluesound's own NODE NANO offers a streaming-only alternative for buyers wanting to pair their own separate amplification instead.
