Celebrating 10 years of #LIVINGHIFI

We can’t believe it’s already been 10 years – a whole decade of Bluesound, #LivingHiFi! It wasn’t an easy path to convince people that audio quality matters as much as convenience and ease-of-use, but we are grateful for all those who supported Bluesound through this mission.

WiFi your HiFi

The Bluesound ecosystem uses your home wireless network not just to stream music, but also to communicate with other BluOS-enabled players on your network. The ecosystem can connect up to 64 players and through the BluOS Controller App for your smart device, you can play your music in perfect sync, or play different music simultaneously.

Made For More Than MP3

Bluesound is not a computer company masquerading as an audio company. They are made by audiophiles for audiophiles. While Bluesound is compatible with MP3s, their players are also compatible with just about every other digital format that’s available, including MQA for those who will settle for nothing less than studio-master-quality sound. We combine sleek and modern design sensibilities with a spare-no-expense attitude on the integration of advanced, innovative audio technologies.

Your Music. Your way.

Whether you stream Internet radio, download hi-res tracks, or have a CD library you have carefully cultivated, Bluesound can give you instant access to millions of songs from a multitude of sources. It’s like having all of the music ever recorded at your fingertips, through your smart device.

Bluesound’s Story

BEGINNING

In 2011, Lenbrook pioneered one of the earliest network streamers for NAD Electronics, which eventually inspired the creation of a new brand dedicated to hi-res, wireless multi-room streaming audio. Two years later, Bluesound was born, named after the blue haze of live concerts. Though audiophiles were initially skeptical, they persevered and established ourselves as the market leader, offering ease-of-use for a new generation of music listeners without sacrificing sound quality.

EVOLVING

They then built on the momentum of Gen 1 and quickly launched their next generation of products, which added two all-in-one streaming speakers, the PULSE MINI and PULSE FLEX. Shortly after, they expanded into the home theater space with the world’s first hi-res capable streaming soundbar and companion subwoofer. BluOS 2.0 is introduced.

REFINING

The full Bluesound product family was updated with performance enhancements, including the introduction of Apple’s AirPlay 2 functionality. HDMI also became a standard input on select products, and the release of BluOS 3.0 provided a new customer onboarding experience.

ELEVATING

Bluesound began developing products on a Quad-Core processor architecture to push the performance of existing products and prepare the brand for future technologies that we aren’t even fully aware of yet. The PULSE SOUNDBAR+ is released as the first Bluesound product to feature Dolby Atmos.
