Bluesound “Node X”

For the past 12 hours, I have been shifting my attention to the Bluesound Node X. Like Apple, it should be pronounced “Ten” not “X.” But it’s okay, we can still call it “X” even though the “X” refers to the company’s 10th anniversary. I’m interested in the eARC that this unit offers. It could be a temporary fix until I buy a new AV receiver. This unit has a price tag of RM3599 and is a limited…

La scelta dei componenti necessari per assemblare un impianto stereo non è semplice. Si può fare una ricerca in base al prezzo o al proprio budget, una ricerca in base alle specifiche, una ricerca in base alle recensioni o altro . Noi invece faremo partire la ricerca della migliore componentistica da… Peter Aczel ! Chi era Peter Aczel ? Peter Aczel è stato un ingegnere elettrico e giornalista ungherese-americano, rinomato per il suo lavoro nel campo dell’audio e della riproduzione musicale ad alta fedeltà.

Second stage streaming achieved.

I was streaming some background tunes at dinner. Then I mentioned to my wife that I should hook her phone up to the Blu-thing. She said OK and handed me her Iphone.

Damn Apple knows how to do stuff. I looked at a tune she had been playing and right there on the Airplay button was the "Nano-". NO setup or fussing about. Pushed the button and it worked. It just worked.

Some years ago I bought her a bluetooth speaker so she could play tunes around the house. She used it often. The big system intimidates her. Now she can use the big system with her phone. She is a bit afraid of the turntable for some reason. But the Iphone, no problem.

We spent the next 2 hours in the living room listening. She curled up in her favorite chair and went through quite a few Santana songs and some other oldie but goodies. She played a couple Camila Cabello songs that our granddaughter loves.

This was the upside of streaming. Just fiddling and enjoying tunes. It is good for that.

I gotta say the sound was OK. Fine for casual tunes and background. I will reserve further judgement for later.

Unelmiesi kotiteatteri: siirry elokuvien keskipisteeseen omalla sohvallasi

Monille elokuvien ja viihteen ystäville kotiteatterin rakentaminen on unelmien täyttymys. Se on tila, jossa voit uppoutua suosikkielokuviisi, TV-ohjelmiisi ja peleihisi mukavasti omasta kodistasi käsin. Mutta mistä aloittaa?

  Tilasuunnittelu on kaiken perusta

  Ensiksi mieti tilan pohjaratkaisua. Olipa kyseessä sitten käyttötarkoitukseen omistettu huone tai monikäyttötila, tilan optimointi on avainasemassa. Ota huomioon istuinjärjestys, mieti näytön sijoittelua suhteessa istumapaikkoihin ja mahdollisiin ikkunoihin – vältä sijoittamasta TV:tä paikkoihin joissa ikkunan kautta ruutuun muodostuu suora heijastus ja huomioi tilan akustiikka. Terassille asennetut kaiuttimet  voivat laajentaa viihteen ulkotiloihin jos TV on esim asennettu nivelellä varustetulle telineelle joka mahdollistaa television kääntämisen kohti terassin ikkunoita tms., Kotiteatterin suunnittelu näin voit nauttia vaikka käynnissä olevasta jääkiekko pelistä terassilla istuessasi.

  Audiovisuaaliset komponentit

  Seuraavaksi keskity AV-laitteisiin. Videoprojektori tai iso kokoinen televisio toimii tilan keskipisteenä. Yhdistä se surround äänijärjestelmään, jossa on tuki Dolby Atmos ja DTS -ääniformaateille ja käsissäsi on erinomainen lähtökohta vaikuttavalla elokuvakokemukselle oman kotisi seinien sisällä. Jos haluat jakaa äänen myös ulkotiloihin muista valita käyttöön säänkestävät kaiuttimet.

  Laadukkaiden laitteiden valinta

Sijoittamalla kerralla korkealaatuisiin tuotteisiin varmistat sijoituksesi pitkäikäisyyden, sekä vaikuttavan elokuvakokemuksen synnyn. Näissäkään asioissa määrä ei korvaa laatua, on siis parempi aloittaa järjestelmän kasaaminen vaikka kahdella korkealaatuisella kaiuttimella, kuin sijoittaa muovisista purkeista koostuvaan ”kotiteatterijärjestelmään” joka kyllä sisältää lukuisan määrän kaiuttimia ja erillisen subwooferin, mutta jonka suorituskyky jättää paljon toivomisen varaa. Järjestelmän kaiutinkokoonpanoa voi sitten myöhemmin täydentää, mutta heikkolaatuisen järjestelmän äänenlaatua on hyvin hankala parantaa hankkiutumatta ensin eroon koko järjestelmästä. Huomioi laitteita valittaessa myös tilan akustiset ominaisuudet ja tilan koko, sekä käyttämäsi kuunteluvoimakkuudet.

Jos haluat laajentaa toistoa terassille voit hyödyntää langattomia tai Bluetooth-yhteensopivia malleja – ne ovat helppo ratkaisu kun äänenlaadun kriteerit asettuvat lähinnä musiikin taustakuunteluun. Riippuen ulkotiloista, muista varmistaa mallien mahdollisten sisäänrakennettujen akkujen käyttöikä ja vedenpitävä rakenne. Merkit kuten Sonos, Denon, Bluesound jne tarjoavat monia ulkokäyttöön suunniteltuja langattomaan verkkoon tai bluetoothiin kytkettäviä vaihtoehtoja.

  Tunnelman luominen

  Kun perusasiat ovat kunnossa, on aika lisätä tilan tunnelmaa luovat viimeistelyt kotiteatteriisi. Himmennettävä valaistus, mukavat istuimet ja akustiikkalevyt voivat nostaa tilan tunnelmaa ja parantaa sen akustiikkaa. Kotiautomaatioratkaisujen integrointi mahdollistaa viihdejärjestelmän saumattoman hallinnan.

Terassille voit lisätä mm tunnelmavaloja, luodaksesi viihtyisän ilmapiirin. Ulkokäyttöön soveltuvien kaiuttimien avulla voit nauttia suosikkimusiikistasi tai podcasteistasi ulkona ystävien ja perheen kanssa.

  Yhteenveto

Kotiteatterin rakentaminen on palkitseva projekti, joka tuo elokuvateatterin taian kotiisi. Valitsemalla huolella oikeat laitteet ja lisävarusteet voit luoda vakuuttavan elokuvakokemuksen, joka vetää vertoja parhaille elokuvateattereille. Jos viihdyt paljon ulkona puutarhassa tai parvekkeella, niin äänentoiston siirtäminen myös sinne on nykyään varsin vaivatonta ja kustannustehokasta.

Easy set up?

I bought a thing called a Bluesound Node Nano. It is a wifi, and blutooth streaming thing that talks to Apple Music as well as several other music sources. I has a powerful chip set and will push out analog signals from RCA jacks. Those were the boxes I wanted to tick.

I wanted to have my phone send music and control that stuff for convenience. Gotta get into the 21st century right?

It arrived. Quick start brochure is several languages was rather optimistic. Or I am stupid. Or I expect intelligent instructions.

I may have said this before, but I was once a computer expert. I built the damn things. I could program them in assembler and C and C++ and shit like that. I was a network administrator for this company in my spare time at the office. It was easy.

The quick start thing was missing a step or two. And there were no labels on buttons and no manual. There was an online version in several languages but the English version was not detailed enough. The best I got was a page that actually identified what the buttons were so I could do a full reset and start again.

I diagnosed that the wifi setup was wrong. The Blutooth was simple, but I wanted the wifi working to get high res lossless. That was a battle.

There was much cursing and anger. Send it back???

After a few attempts the phone talked to the node thing but only on Blutooth. That may be due to my older phone model. I got my Macbook talking to it as well, and that may be high rez.

I am working through some quirks. The output to the preamp is kinda low. You can have variable or smart or fixed volume from the RCAs, but the gain on the preamp must be higher than the CD and even the phono! Some music you can hear from files on the Macbook others from the phone. Others are streamed from Apple Music, and all are a bit differently handled.

The BluOS app on the phone is fairly general and intended to control a whole house media thing so it does the node job poorly. FN geeks should talk to people about the user interface rather than just complain that people who buy the product are stupid.

I have the Iphone as it is smart. The ios ecosystem is well thought out and works. Fortunately my phone sees the node as an airplay target and seems to work directly. Unfortunately I do not seem to get better than blutooth compressed signal to the node thing. It is probably my phone as it is old. Old things do not work so well in the 21st century.

You can get a disc made 100 years ago to play on a turntable. The "Voyager" spacecraft have gold discs on them that will survive for 100 centuries and those play on a turntable. The instructions to build one are on the label.

There are media stream protocols and hard drive protocols from ten years ago that "are no longer supported". I guess you measure progress today based on the inability to do stuff with old things.

OK Bring on the FN tube amps!
