Fantastic Music Streamer

The Bluesound Node Icon has been excellent performer all round. Very responsive to all my music streaming services, including the USB Thumbdrive I connected via the back of the unit.
I am so glad that Bluesound has retained its touch sensitive feature on the top, now I don’t get any fingerprint smudges all over the main screen which can be very irritating to look at. Its proximity sensor works great too.
Sounds great and delightful on my system which comprises a Rega Brio integrated amplifier and a pair Klipsch horn speakers.

Thank you Atlas S&V for the exceptional service and delivery.

A clearly better streamer

I have the Node N130 (2021) and just upgraded to the new Node Icon which is clearly a better performing streamer right out of the box. I had it running "elevator music" for about 2 days and the sound got even better. Definitely a good upgrade for anyone already into BLUOS and considering it. No regrets!
