The asking price of US$430 for this used Bluesound Node 2i is ambitious, sitting well above the median of US$257 and the 75th percentile of US$268 from your database; it clearly exceeds the typical used market range, even though external data suggests lightly used units can dip below US$400. This listing is not a bargain and feels overpriced relative to the strong resale value indicated by your ground truth figures.
Despite the high price, the Node 2i remains a highly regarded streamer praised for its versatile BluOS app, excellent connectivity including Wi-Fi 5 and Gigabit Ethernet, and capable high-res DAC supporting 24-bit/192kHz. If the condition is genuinely mint and includes original accessories or a warranty, it offers meaningful upside for a buyer seeking a reliable, stylish entry into modern streaming, though the price demands a pristine, complete package to justify the cost.
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.
