Bluesound Pulse M Overview

The versatile P230 PULSE M Wireless Bluetooth Speaker from Bluesound in satin black is designed to fill your space with clean, high-resolution audio, or be joined with other speakers in the Bluesound ecosystem. Pairing with other devices allows for the expansion of the PULSE M's soundstage to accommodate larger spaces or to be a part of a home theater system. On its own, the PULSE M's elliptical-shaped cabinet sports Bluesound's Omni-Hybrid driver design, where the drivers are positioned for a 360° listening experience. Setup and control of the PULSE M is made to be easy with the BluOS Controller app or by using voice commands.

Omni-Hybrid Drivers
The PULSE M's elliptical-shaped cabinet and Omni-Hybrid drivers design come together to deliver a wide soundstage and 360° audio experience, where nearly every location in the room is a sweet spot.

The Omni-Hybrid drivers consist of a 5 1/4" up-firing woofer and dual 3/4" tweeters. The woofer features a custom reflector above it, which diffuses unwanted sonic artifacts and drives high frequencies up and into the room. The tweeters are mounted at 45° angle away from each other to further assist spreading its sound outward, and the whole system works with a built-in DSP smart amplifier to project up to 80W of audio power.

Pairing & Multi-Room Streaming
The audio from the PULSE M is impressive enough when used on its own, but you can get so much more when joining it with other speakers in the Bluesound ecosystem. For example, the PULSE M can act as a surround speaker when joined with the PULSE SOUNDBAR+ and POWERNODE. For pure audio playback, you can join it with one or more speakers in the room for stereo sound and more, or with other compatible speakers throughout your home for a multi-room system.
Audio Control
BluOS Controller App: this app is available for iOS, Android, Kindle Fire, and Windows and macOS X desktops. With it, you can set up the PULSE M with easy step-by-step instructions. You can then use the app to control playback in the room or throughout your home, adjust audio settings, program the 5 quick-touch button presets, and even give the speaker a name and room assignment.

Voice Control: Whether through an app or compatible (optional) smart device in your home, you can control the PULSE M using voice commands with either Alexa Skills, Siri, or Actions on Google digital assists.

Hi-End Audio & Services
The quality of your music is made to come out of the PULSE M as the musicians intended with support for MQA and Hi-Res Audio formats in addition to aptX HD. It also supports streaming services and technologies, such as Spotify, Tidel Connect, and Apple AirPlay
Bidirectional Bluetooth
Supporting bidirectional Bluetooth streaming, you can stream audio to the PULSE M via a compatible device, such as a smartphone; and you can stream from the PULSE M to an (optional) pair of Bluetooth headphones.
