Bluesound PULSE FLEX Compact Wireless Hi-Res Speaker

The Bluesound PULSE FLEX is a compact all-in-one wireless streaming speaker designed to bring hi-res audio to any room in the home without fuss.

Completely redesigned for 2025, it features a minimalist rounded cabinet available in three stylish finishes, with a 50W SmartDSP amplifier driving a two-way driver arrangement - a 4" woofer and 0.75" tweeter - for balanced, detailed sound well beyond its size.

Running on the BluOS platform, the PULSE FLEX streams from 23+ music services including AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, and Roon Ready, with aptX HD Bluetooth 5.3 for wireless playback from any device. USB-C and optical/analogue combo inputs let you connect external sources, and the wireless PULSE SUB+ subwoofer output means you can add deep bass without any extra cabling.

Use one as a standalone speaker, pair two for stereo, or deploy a pair as rear surround channels with a Bluesound PULSE CINEMA, POWERNODE, or POWERNODE EDGE for a complete wireless home theatre.

• 50W SmartDSP Amplification: A Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A53 processor and smart DSP amplifier drive a precision-tuned 4" woofer (40W) and 0.75" tweeter (10W) for controlled, detailed sound that fills the room without distortion.
