{"product_id":"bluesoundpulsembl","title":"Bluesound Pulse M Streaming Speaker, Black (Each)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bluesound Pulse M is an active streaming speaker with BluOS that spreads its sound through the room in 360 degrees via the Omni-Hybrid principle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLet's be honest: most speakers reward exactly one seat. The Pulse M turns that around – an upward-firing woofer, an acoustic reflector and two angled tweeters mean the sweet spot comes to you instead of the other way round. In matte black, it stays pleasantly unobtrusive while doing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Pulse M?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 5.25-inch woofer at 50 watts and two 0.75-inch tweeters at 15 watts each add up to 80 watts of system power, distributed by a DSP amplifier. Through BluOS you get access to more than 20 streaming services, plus internet radio, podcasts and your own music files on the network – the latter running entirely without a paid subscription. Five preset buttons on the touch panel with proximity sensor bring back favourite stations and playlists with a single tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eHi-res playback at 16 to 24 bit and up to 192 kHz including MQA, Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD in both directions, AirPlay 2, and voice control via Alexa, Google Assistant or Siri. Plus a 3.5mm combo input for analogue or optical sources, USB-A for local files, a headphone output, and a wireless link to the Pulse Sub+. Two Pulse M speakers make a genuine stereo pair or the rear duo of a home cinema group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Pulse M for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIdeal when a room needs even sound coverage without you committing to one seat – kitchen, living room, open floor plan. Honestly: if you want pinpoint stereo imaging from a fixed listening spot, a classic pair serves you better; in that case just set up two Pulse M speakers. And the bass extension ends at −10 dB around 40 Hz – for movie nights with real punch, add the Pulse Sub+. It's not built for permanent outdoor use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Pulse M is the most elegant way to fill an entire room from a single unit: 360° sound, grown-up connectivity, and always expandable into a stereo or home cinema set. Which position in your room gets the most out of the concept is something we at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil prefer to work out together with you – call, email or WhatsApp us and tell us about your room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcept: Omni-Hybrid, 360° dispersion via acoustic reflector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput power: 80 W system power (1 × 50 W woofer, 2 × 15 W tweeters)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmplifier: DSP Smart Amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrivers: 1 × 5.25″ (133 mm) woofer, upward-firing; 2 × 0.75″ (19 mm) tweeters, angled 45°\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 60 Hz – 20 kHz (±1.5 dB); −10 dB at 40 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal harmonic distortion (THD+N): 0.030%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolution: 16–24 bit, up to 192 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHi-res formats: FLAC, MQA, WAV, AIFF, MPEG-4 SLS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOther formats: MP3, AAC, WMA, WMA-L, OGG, ALAC, OPUS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlatform: BluOS, AirPlay 2, Roon Ready\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoice control: Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple Siri\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetwork: Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) dual-band, Gigabit Ethernet (RJ45)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth: 5.0 aptX HD, bidirectional (receive and send)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput: 1 × combo 3.5mm analogue \/ mini-TOSLINK optical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB: 1 × Type A (FAT32)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadphone output: yes, 3.5mm stereo; also wirelessly via Bluetooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput level: no line\/preamp output available (power amps are integrated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubwoofer: wireless connection to Bluesound Pulse Sub+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo \u0026 home cinema: stereo pairing, surround grouping in BluOS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessor: ARM Cortex-A53 quad-core, 1.8 GHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl systems: Crestron, Control4, URC, RTI, ELAN, KNX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting: optional wall bracket WM230, floor stand FS230\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions (W × H × D): 171 × 204 × 149 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 2.54 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower consumption: 79 W (max.)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHousing: black, silk matte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded: 120V and 230V power cables, Ethernet cable, mini-TOSLINK to 3.5mm adapter, quick guide, safety and warranty information\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the Omni-Hybrid design in the Pulse M mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe woofer fires upward against an acoustic reflector that spreads the sound in all directions; two tweeters angled at 45 degrees handle the highs. The result is a 360-degree soundstage that feels similarly balanced throughout the room – no matter where you're sitting or standing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow deep does the Pulse M play, and do I need a subwoofer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBluesound specifies 60 Hz to 20 kHz at ±1.5 dB, reaching down to 40 Hz at −10 dB. For music in a living space that's surprisingly enough. If you want movie sound with real punch or need to fill a larger room, pair it wirelessly with a Bluesound Pulse Sub+.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan two Pulse M speakers be used as a stereo or surround set?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. In the BluOS app you can pair two Pulse M speakers into a stereo pair with separate channels, or assign them as rear surround speakers in a home cinema group. So you can start with one unit and expand later without replacing anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I mount the Pulse M on the wall?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, with Bluesound's optional WM230 wall bracket; for free-standing placement there's the FS230 floor stand. Both are matched to the housing. Make sure to leave enough space above it – the woofer fires upward and needs room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Bluesound Pulse M from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause with the 360-degree concept, placement and combination make the difference. We'll advise you in Wädenswil on position, stereo or surround expansion and a suitable subwoofer, set up the BluOS system with our own technician on request, and handle service and warranty without hassle.
