- Is the Powernode Edge powerful enough for floorstanding speakers?
- Usually not. At 80 W into 4 ohms it suits bookshelf and efficient standmount speakers; large, low-impedance floorstanders will push it into clipping at high volume.
- Does it work as a TV amplifier?
- Yes. The HDMI eARC input takes audio from a TV, and the optical input covers older sets. It decodes Dolby Digital but not surround formats beyond that.
- Can I add a subwoofer?
- Yes. There is one subwoofer output, so a 2.1 setup with a powered sub is straightforward.
- Does it support hi-res streaming?
- Yes. BluOS handles FLAC, ALAC, WAV, AIFF and MQA, and Tidal and Qobuz integrate directly. Spotify Connect and AirPlay 2 are also built in.
- How does it differ from the full-size Powernode?
- The Edge is much slimmer and lower powered, with fewer inputs. The full-size Powernode offers more power and connections but takes up far more space.
- Can I use headphones with it?
- Yes. There is a 1/8-inch headphone jack on the front, which mutes the speakers when plugged in.
