New Products

Canada’s Bluesound, maker of multiroom wireless streamers, amps, speakers, and soundbars, has added a new subwoofer to its product lineup. With a larger 8-inch driver and 150-watt Smart DSP amplifier, The Pulse Sub+ ($749) appears to be a significant improvement over the company’s previous offering, the Pulse Sub. The new model can also be set up and adjusted via the company’s BluOS Controller app—a feature the earlier Pulse Sub lacked.

Designed for use with any wireless or wired Bluesound system, the compact (18 in W x 11.8 in H x 5.75 in D) Pulse Sub+ comes in either a black or white finish. Detachable magnetic rubber feet can be adjusted to permit either vertical placement or horizontal positioning underneath a sofa, and it also comes with a wall bracket. Setup features provided in the Bluesound BluOS Controller app include volume, crossover, and phase adjustment, allowing for full wireless control of the subwoofer.

The Pulse Sub+ is available to pre-order now and is scheduled to ship in late October. Check out the Bluesound website for details.
