Wireless Audio Bluesound Source Adapter for Digital and Analog Gear
The Bluesound HUB is a highly versatile network accessory that brings both analog and digital audio devices into the BluOS ecosystem for networked streaming. It allows you to listen to any music source in the house – even a turntable! – without being limited by wires and physical proximity.
You can connect the HUB to the network with dual-band Wi-Fi or wired Gigabit ethernet. Powered by a USB-C connection, its high-quality, moving magnet phono preamp and low noise, wide-bandwidth design means that you can stream recordings from your vinyl collection wirelessly without sacrificing playback quality. Needless to say, it excels with digital music sources as well.
For speed and processing muscle, the HUB uses an advanced ARM® Cortex™ A53 Quad-Core, 1.8GHz per core processor. There's a front panel status indicator LED plus an front panel function button in addition to easy operation via the BluOS App. The native sampling rate is up to 192 kHz with bit depths of 16-24.
Compact, Industrial Design
This compact box does a lot! The HUB is designed to seamlessly blend into any environment with its compact shape. It fits just about anywhere. For rack-mounting enthusiasts, Its 1U rack height and 1/3 rack width makes for a clean system design. Four-way keyhole mounting slots allow for four different orientation options and easy cable management.
Multiple Source Inputs
The HUB is for all kinds of audio gear, from old fashioned to newfangled. No one gets left out. It is compatible with nearly any audio input, including HDMI ARC for audio, coax, digital optical, and stereo analog, so you have a wealth of options when it comes to connecting music sources to the BluOS network.
Easy Setup and Control
Each HUB can manage two sources simultaneously (one analog, one digital), and you can add up to four HUBs to a single network using the simple setup wizard in the BluOS App. Easily control all your speakers and sources through the BluOS App on your smartphone, tablet, or desktop.
High Performance
How sweet it is to be able to stream the rich sound of vinyl records. And there's no need for a dedicated phono preamp if your turntable lacks one. The HUB’s networked moving magnet phono preamp delivers uncompromised audio quality for your turntable. Choose between dual-band Wi-Fi or a wired Gigabit ethernet connection for a stable network audio performance.
Powered by USB-C
A universal USB-C plug and play connection makes powering the HUB easy and efficient. With only a small external power supply needed, the HUB has more space for dedicated audio inputs, increasing its usability and versatility while creating more opportunities for easy network source sharing.
