A big upgrade in headphone sound
Now fitted with a THX AAA headphone amp, the NODE (N132) takes a big step up in headphone performance. THX’s leading amp technology gives an incredibly linear response for exceptional sound and remarkably low noise and distortion. For the best quality connection, the NODE (N132) is now fitted with a full-sized 6.35mm jack.
Connect to almost any system – wired or wireless
Whether you’re connecting to a hi-fi, AVR or speaker system, the NODE (N132) has you covered. For top quality Hi-res sound, take advantage of the HDMI eARC or USB-A audio outputs – ideal for connecting to an AVR or suitable DAC. Alternatively, there are also optical and coaxial digital outputs. For most hi-fi systems, simply connect to the AUX input via the RCA phono outputs. Want to go wireless? That’s not a problem. You can connect to your Bluetooth speaker (or headphones) via the two-way aptX Adaptive Bluetooth interface.
Optional state-of-the-art room correction
A great new feature for the latest NODE is the option of using the streamer with Dirac Live Room Correction. Purchase a Dirac license (at additional cost to the streamer) and you can take advantage of one of the most advanced room correction systems available. Using an optional mic and Dirac’s sophisticated room correction technology, you can tune the sound to your room, to perfection.
