About The Bluesound Pulse M Wireless Speaker

The Pulse M delivers lush, rich, room-filling sound at nearly all angles. Its Omni-Hybrid™ driver design includes an up firing woofer and two tweeters mounted at 45 degree angles from each other. The Pulse M is not only pleasing to the ears but also the eyes – its elliptical shape adds an elegant accent to any home.

Boundary-Free Listening: Take your listening 360 degrees. The Pulse M is a wireless multi-room streaming speaker featuring a new Omni-Hybrid design – an up firing, omnidirectional woofer and two tweeters mounted and offset at 45 degrees, driven by a DSP-enabled 80 Watt smart amplifier, all working together to create lush, room filling sound at nearly any listening angle.

Stunning Sound & Design: The Pulse M configures its unique Omni-Hybrid system inside of an elliptical cabinet to make a space-saving design that easily fits into the nooks and crannies of your home. Enjoy placement flexibility with the optional WM230 wall mount accessory or the FS230 floor stands. An acoustically transparent fabric grille combined with Black or White finish options makes for an all-around sensational speaker in both sound and design.

Stream Any Music, No Matter Where It Lives: As your all access pass to millions of tracks, the BluOS Controller app allows you to stream songs from your existing music services such as Spotify, TIDAL, Qobuz & Deezer, tune in to your favourite radio stations and podcasts, or even listen to music from your personal collection. Thanks to aptX™ HD Bluetooth®, users can wirelessly stream any music or app from a Bluetooth aptX enabled device in CD-quality, opening up a whole new realm of streaming possibilities with the Pulse M.

One Or Many: Thanks to impeccable engineering, the Pulse M can also be paired to create a true two-channel listening experience with an ultra-wide soundstage, even at off-axis listening angles. The Pulse M can be grouped with other players in a Bluesound ecosystem to deliver hi-res, multi-room audio to one or many rooms, simultaneously.

Surround Yourself With Sound: TV watchers, movie enthusiasts, and gamers can use Pulse Ms as rear surrounds in a Bluesound home theatre group along with Pulse Soundbar+ and Pulse Sub+ to create a truly immersive experience.

Connect & Control: Built-in access to over 20 natively-integrated music services and thousands of internet radio stations is available from the BluOS Controller app. Alternatively, connect to your music through Wi-Fi, Ethernet, AirPlay 2, two-way aptX HD Bluetooth, USB-A, 3.5mm dual analogue/digital input, or the 3.5mm headphone jack.

Quick-access playback, including volume controls and 5 programmable presets, is available right on the top of the player with a proximity-sensing touch panel display, or through voice control assistants like Siri, Alexa, or Google Home. The Pulse M also fits right into smart homes, with drivers for Crestron, Control4, RTI, URC, Lutron and other home control systems.

Our Review

This omni-directional speaker from Bluesound has a wonderful mix of specifications and features and a sound that is hard not to fall in love with. Bluesound have cleverly arranged the speakers inside to give an almost 360 degree sound stage and if you want even more room filling sound you can stereo pair them. They also work as rear speakers in a Bluesound home theatre surround sound system using the Pulse Soundbar+ and Pulse Sub+. Connectivity is a real highlight here with a totally unique mix of ways to connect with the Pulse M. You can just play your favourite streaming service or internet radio station using the BluOS App via Wi-Fi or Ethernet or direct from your phone using Spotify Connect or Tidal Connect. It also offers optical digital & analogue audio inputs, albeit through the same socket, as well as playback from a USB stick and a wired headphone output. Pulse M also features AirPlay 2 and two way Bluetooth, which means you can play to the Pulse M from a smartphone and also use Bluetooth headphones to listen. And finally, you can hook up a Bluesound Pulse Sub+ subwoofer wirelessly if it's more bass you're after. All in all the Bluesound Pulse M has a heck of a lot going for it at a very reasonable price. We think you're going to love it.
