What the press says
The Node Nano is the most affordable BluOS network player ever released. It provides access to major streaming services and playback of your audio file collection, all in Hi-Res across various existing formats. The app is both well-designed and efficient, featuring cross-platform favorites and a search engine. If the BluOS app doesn't suit you, the Nano can also be controlled via Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, and Roon. Its playback quality rivals higher-end models, likely thanks to the implementation of its new high-quality DAC chip. The Bluesound Node Nano has become our new benchmark in the entry-level streamer category.

I use the Nano purely as a streamer (connected to a FOSTEX HPA8C DAC), paired with an SBOOTER MKII power supply, which significantly upgrades the Nano compared with the standard power supply. The result is of very high quality, with smooth reproduction and an excellent level of definition for a product at this price. I recommend it.

J'utilise le Nano en streamer pur ( connecté à un Dac FOSTEX HPA8C) , couplé à une alimentation SBOOTER MKII, qui upgrade très nettement le Nano , par rapport à l'alimentation de base.
Le résultat est de grande qualité, avec une restitution soyeuse et un niveau de définition excellent pour un produit de ce prix.
Je recommande.

How could I have waited so long before letting myself be won over by this Bluesound Nano? Until now, I was satisfied with Chromecast Audio! With this Nano, I’ve truly moved up to a higher range... by far. What’s more, the price offer was really very attractive! Thank you.

comment ai-je pu attendre autant de temps avant de me laisser séduire par ce Bluesound Nano ? Je me satisfais, jusqu'à présent, de Chromecast audio ! Avec ce nano, je suis passé vraiment à une gamme au-dessus... largement. De plus l'offre de prix était vraiment super intéressante ! Merci.

After being very disappointed with the Volumio Rivo+, I was looking for a streamer with much better app ergonomics and AirPlay stability, without having to pay a high price for an additional DAC. Connected to my Chord Qutest, this little streamer ticks all the boxes I needed.

Après avoir été très déçu du Volumio Rivo+, je cherchais un steamer dont l'ergonomie de l'application et la stabilité de l'airplay seraient bien meilleurs, et ce sans payer cher un DAC supplémentaire. Connecté à mon Chord Qutest, ce petit streamer coche toutes les cases dont j'avais besoin.
