Designed for Quick Setup
Right out of the box, the PULSE 2i uses your home wireless network and sets up quickly. Simply open the BluOS Controller app on your mobile device and follow the short setup instructions. From the app, you can choose your listening preferences, program presets for your favorite radio stations, music streaming services and playlists, and even set alarms. Once the PULSE 2i is online, connectivity stays solid thanks to its dual-band Wi-Fi engine.
All-in-One Design
Featuring updated driver and amp technologies over earlier PULSE models, the PULSE 2i also has a sophisticated DSP engine available designed to extend its stereo soundfield.
Distortion-Free Audio
Wherever you place it, the PULSE 2i will deliver clear, virtually distortion-free sound anywhere in the home. Dual-band Wi-Fi allows the PULSE 2i to perform free from skips or delays. The PULSE 2i also has native support for Bluetooth aptX HD, giving it the ability to transmit studio-quality music to Bluetooth headphones and speakers.
AirPlay 2 Built In
With AirPlay 2 built in for easy integration into the Apple ecosystem, the PULSE 2i is a flexible all-in-one speaker. High-end DAC technology allows the PULSE 2i to decode and stream MQA files in lossless quality. Simply open the BluOS Controller app on your mobile device and choose tracks from your existing music services, tune in to your favorite internet radio stations and podcasts, or listen to music from your personal collection.
Voice Control
With skills and support for Amazon Alexa, the Google Assistant, and Apple's Siri, you can connect the PULSE 2i to the corresponding app and enjoy hands-free voice control of all your audio. Select a track, play your favorite playlist, pause or skip a song, and tell your virtual assistant which room you want to listen to music in.
Surround Yourself with Sound
Group the PULSE 2i with other Bluesound players to stream music in different rooms in sync, or pair two PULSE 2i speakers together and enjoy your music in stereo mode with separate left and right channels for a wider, more dynamic soundstage.
