About Bluesound

Bluesound was launched in 2013 and is one of the newest of Lenbrook Industries audio brands. The designers of Bluesound products have been in the audio industry for decades and they relentlessly continue to pursue excellent music reproduction through innovative technologies.

Bluesound is an award-winning wireless and multiroom system that supports Hi-Res audio. Bluesound aims to give you high-quality sound and, to do so, they have designed an operating system called BluOS which is sophisticated, yet easy to use. BluOS supports music streaming services such as Amazon Music, Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz and Deezer and it can support up to 64 players to fill your home with quality sound. Additionally, Bluesound allows you to play your music through Bluetooth from your tablet, PC or smartphone, from NAS drive (Network Attachable Storage) or USB drive.

Bluesound offers a range of streamers, wireless speakers and a CD Ripper that rips your CDs, stores them and later serves them to any devices on your network.
Bluesound systems connect using your home’s Wi-Fi network or hard-wire through Ethernet cable to the router. You can then control the system using the BluOs Controller App for Android, iOS or desktop.
