{"product_id":"bluesoundnodenano","title":"Bluesound Node Nano Network Streamer","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bluesound Node Nano is a compact network streamer with ESS Sabre DAC and variable analog output that makes an existing system streaming-ready in high resolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's the space-saving entry point into the BluOS world: the complete streaming package in the smallest Node housing, without extras nobody ends up using. Roughly fourteen centimetres square – it disappears behind almost any device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Node Nano?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmall doesn't mean stripped down here, at least not when it comes to sound: the Nano runs the same ESS Sabre ES9039Q2M converter as the significantly larger Node, plus a quad-core processor that handles hi-res material up to 24 bit\/192 kHz and DSD256 without stumbling. The savings are in the connections, not the conversion. You connect it to your amplifier via RCA, optical or coaxial – and the modern source is ready to go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull-fledged Hi-Res DAC:\u003c\/strong\u003e ESS Sabre ES9039Q2M, up to 24 bit\/192 kHz and DSD256.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable RCA output:\u003c\/strong\u003e plays directly into active speakers or a power amp, switchable to a fixed level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible digital outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e optical, coaxial and USB Audio Out for an external DAC.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete BluOS:\u003c\/strong\u003e AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Roon Ready, multiroom.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBidirectional Bluetooth 5.2 (aptX Adaptive):\u003c\/strong\u003e stream in and send to wireless headphones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIlluminated touch panel:\u003c\/strong\u003e programmable presets, usable even in the dark.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Node Nano for – and who isn't it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal if you want to bring an existing system into the streaming age without much effort and without free shelf space – or if a second room should be added. Honestly: the Nano doesn't bring an amplifier or speakers along, it has no audio inputs at all, HDMI eARC is missing for TV sound, headphones work only wirelessly, and Dirac Live is off the table. If you need any of that, the larger Node or the Node Icon is the right choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA small streamer with a grown-up converter – the most uncomplicated path to BluOS and Hi-Res, and thanks to the variable output it can even be used directly in front of a power amp.

The RCA output ships with a variable level, and you control the volume in the BluOS app. That means the Nano can also play directly into active speakers or a power amp. On an integrated amplifier, it's better to switch the output to a fixed level in the app.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Node Nano have a headphone output?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The Nano has no jack output for headphones – there simply isn't room for one. Wireless still works, though: Bluetooth 5.2 with aptX Adaptive works in both directions and sends to wireless headphones. If you want to listen wired, go for the Node with its THX-AAA headphone amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat sets the Node Nano apart from the Node?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nano is smaller and reduced purely to streaming: no HDMI eARC, no audio inputs, no headphone output and no Dirac Live. The Node brings all of that along, plus a subwoofer output. Both use the same ESS Sabre ES9039Q2M converter – sonically they're closer together than the price difference suggests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes streaming work without a paid subscription?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Internet radio, files from your network storage and music from a USB stick run without a subscription. Paid services like Tidal or Qobuz are an option, not a requirement. AirPlay 2 and Bluetooth also work at no extra cost – you decide where the music comes from and what it's allowed to cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Bluesound Node Nano at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause we tell you honestly which Node fits your system – and when the small Nano is entirely enough.
