Bluesound Node N130 Streamer/DAC I bought this for streaming but don’t like the app, much easier to just use airplay so I’ve gone back to a more basic option. The dac in this is pretty good but I have a mega dollars one it was plugged into anyway very little use Condition: Very Good Payment Method: PayPal, bank transfer or cash Region/State: (QLD) Queensland/Australia By Gremrock 0 Comments AUD $675 Date: July 25, 20241 yr
Against your recent comp set, A$675 is ambitious for this Node N130: it sits above the 75th percentile of A$648 and well over the median of A$521. It is not wildly out of line for a clean, desirable example, but it is pricing toward the top end of the current used market rather than offering a bargain.
That said, the Node N130 remains a very worthwhile streamer/DAC: it’s well regarded for easy app control, solid digital performance, and genuinely convenient all-in-one network playback. In very_good condition, the upside is a tidy, modern unit that should be simple to drop into a system; at this price, I’d mainly want confidence in original accessories, stable firmware, and a properly working output stage.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Bluesound emerged in 2013 from Canada's Lenbrook Group, the powerhouse behind revered hi-fi marques NAD and PSB. Headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, the brand was born from a bold vision to fuse wireless multi-room audio with genuine high-fidelity reproduction, reimagining home sound for a streaming era. Debuting at Munich's hi-fi showcase before a full CES reveal in 2014, Bluesound drew on Lenbrook's decades of audio innovation—pioneered since the 1970s—to deliver hi-res performance without compromise.
The brand specializes in wireless multi-room streaming components, anchored by its proprietary BluOS platform for seamless, intuitive control across devices. Iconic products like the NODE streamer, POWERNODE amplifier, PULSE speakers, and VAULT music server form the core lineup, emphasizing high-resolution audio from Tidal, Qobuz, and local libraries. BluOS extends to NAD and PSB gear, creating a unified ecosystem that prioritizes bit-perfect playback over gimmicks.
Bluesound holds a commanding mid-to-high-end position among discerning audiophiles, celebrated for its stable, award-winning multi-room hi-res streaming that benchmarks the category. No longer unchallenged, the NODE remains a reference, blending accessibility with sonic depth to appeal to knowledgeable buyers seeking modern wireless excellence rooted in Canadian engineering heritage.
