Our take on the Bluesound NODE N132 Performance Music Streamer

The Bluesound NODE N132 is a compact network streamer that turns any amplifier or powered speaker into a streaming system. It supports hi-res FLAC and ALAC, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0 and DLNA, and adds a coaxial digital output plus USB input that the earlier NODE lacked. Owners rate it highly for stable streaming and the BluOS app, which handles multiroom and most major services. It suits people building a separate hi-fi system who want streaming without a screen or built-in storage.
