Welcome to Bluesound, Hi-Fi for the Wi-Fi generation.
Bluesound transforms your local digital music library by putting the music of your life right at your ngertips.
The clutter of CDs is relegated to a previous era! Your smartphone, desktop or tablet running the Bluesound App
now controls your music.
Your Bluesound music system is also a sophisticated Internet streaming device that allows you to listen to a
wide range of Internet music service providers. Bluesound also provides access to music subscription services
featuring extensive catalogs of millions of songs streamed to you over the internet in real time. TuneIn Radio
makes every radio station in the world a local station via the magic of the internet.
To take full advantage of all these Bluesound capabilities requires a robust wired or wireless home network
and a reliable high speed Internet connection, provided by a DSL or Cable modem. Internet access must be
contracted and installed by your local Internet Service Provider. For remote areas there are satellite options for
high speed internet access.
Before signing on to a music subscription or cloud service we suggest that you review your Internet service plan
and be sure you have enough internet speed and bandwidth to provide uninterrupted streaming. Most internet
service providers offer multiple plans and can help you make the best choice.
