These arrived in perfect condition. The sound is very balanced, full, and warm. These aren't for people looking for exaggerated highs and lows, but still decent bass and clear treble. Very good compact towers for the price.
Speakers that are so darn easy to listen to, with lifelike detail and emotional involvement in the music. Few speakers do that...or they cost much more. Well done. Bravo.
Picked up the node x and it exceeded my expectations for sound quality. Audio Factory re-certified & arrived in great shape, no issues to report. Unit is hard to find and I saved $200!
love the system. Name of the artist singing and the name of the song appear, I appreciate that. The sound from the system is great.
Upgraded from an older Sony 5.1 system and love the improvement in sound and ease of use. Really like the optical and Bluetooth capabilities. Phono sounds phenomenal with rich detail. This is a great product and a super value.
I have used the Bluesound sound bar and it was missing the low end (Base) now it sounds a lot better. I use it for TV and music and it sounds good.
I have been using a WiiM with Tidal on my NAD3020v2 and PSB Alpha speakers for a few years and have been pleased. I thought I would “audition” the Node Nano to see if I was truly able to hear any improvement. I was absolutely surprised by how much more life there is my music. The sound is brighter and has far more depth. When an MQA source is playing, the sound quality is astounding!
My audition resulted in me keeping the Node Nano. The WiiM has been removed from my components.
This is the second time I have purchased this unit. After selling my first unit to upgrade I instantly regretted that decision and now 5 years later and seeing this unit still available I purchased one and never looked back
I needed a good streamer with a great headphone output. I did a lot of research in the $200–$500 category and found this. It's easy to use, simple to set up, and sounds great. It also easily handled my reference 470-ohm headphones. I would recommend it.
A word of caution: great device, horrible naming convention. You may find cheaper Nodes, but they are not the N132 Node, which is the newest model. It is a very different product, and though I have not tried the older version, the technology is older and from what I’ve read, the headphone jack on previous models seemed more like an afterthought—unlike this one, which is great.
Good sub, easy to adjust. Makes a huge difference with my Dali Spektor 2. I would give 5 stars if I didn’t hear a small buzz from the transformer. It doesn’t go through the speaker and I hear it only when the room is quiet.
Nice refurbished NAD cd player. Works great, looks great. Great.
The speakers performed exactly as I expected, very warm and balanced sound for any kind of music. Delivered fast and condition as advertised.
I just have the pair of satellite speakers. Great deal for $300 sale price as I already have a sub. Not so sure at the reg $799
I have no complaints. Have them walk mounted in my kitchen. Look beautiful. Very high build quality, fit and finish
A beautiful amp with plenty of power. It matches well with my Klipsch Forte speakers I've had since 1985. Needed help with using Chromecast and Bob gave me easy instructions on how to change the settings on my Sony TV to made it work. Overall a great purchase and wonderful product.
The imagine C is the center-channel version of the (no longer produced) imagine t3 series and matches their accoustics wonderfully. Given the factory refurbs are going at a fraction of the original MSRP, this is a hell of a bargain if you have (or can get) Imagine T-series towers for your front left/right channels.
Some minor points of caution: the new imagine series is very different from the older Imagine T series, and will likely have a fairly distinct accoustics profile. I also have no idea how they would sound with PSBs latest flagship offerings (probably pretty damn good, mind you).
I'll also add that Lenbrook (PSB's pareny company and support provider) is easy to deal with and still has a supply of compatible parts (at least as of early 2025)
I was quite excited to try these earphones due to the promise of “room feel” and audiodo profile to get the best sound possible. These units delivered on the sound front, the bass extension is very good with plenty of dynamic punch and the details are all there. The best sounding IEM’s I have tried. My problem with these started with me being able to get a good fit. Only one size of ear tips was supplied and that was too big, so if I was exercising or riding my bike they would come loose and fly out after a few minutes. On top of that, I have had problems with connectivity the whole time. One or both disconnects and tries to reconnect constantly (with all the associated crackling) if I am on the move at all, even while walking. They even say I am “out of range” when I am holding the phone two feet away. As a result, I cannot use these to listen during a casual walk to the point where I just want to throw them away. Very frustrating, doubly so when they sound so great. Note that I have no problems with connecting to my Apple AirPods and Focal Bathys headphones so I don’t believe it is an issue with my phone.
If you just need a music streamer or streamer & DAC without other inputs, room correction, or a sub out, the nano is perfect and still has a very good sounding DAC. Ideal for a secondary or more budget friendly system without the need to buy a separate DAC.
clean clear sound with robust bass and clean highs and midrange. A joy to listen to.
Works great, just what I needed for a small room system. Great price and amazing service from Audio Factory.
The Nano is a perfect solution for a kitchen bookshelf setup where a Node was awkward in terms of size and to reach the controls on top. The Nano fits better in this space and is easier to use, while staying in the Bluesound family to sync with dining and living room players and access a Vault library. See pictures.
I hear no discernible difference between the Node (N130 - 2021) and the Nano, though the powered speakers in my kitchen aren't that revealing.
I've had four Node streamers for a few years and have never used the HDMI or USB functions on any of them, and only occasionally used the headphone jack on one of them. So the Nano is doing everything a Node has done for me in the past, but more affordably.
If you're just getting into streaming and this will be your first Bluesound player or you're expanding a Bluesound network, the Nano is great value.
I'm very happy with the Nano, especially at the Audio Factory price. This is the seventh Bluesound device I've bought form the Audio Factory. All run great and have collectively become the main source of music for several two-channel setups.
Although I purchased a refurbished NAD T758 V3i, I believe that I received an older model T-758 that may have been upgraded with modules. From my research, I believe NAD first released the T758, then the T758 V3, then the T758 V3i (the front of the reciever's body indicates T758 in white print on all these models). When I powered up the unit, the Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) indicated T-758, whereas online photos of the newest model indicate T 758 V3i on the VFD. The packing carton indicated it was a T758 V3i. When configuring the unit, it is recommended to complete a firmware update with an internet connection, as well as a BlueOS upgrade. Internet and BlueOS connectivity are achieved using a supplied USB 3-port splitter hub with a Wi-Fi dongle and Bluetooth USB Micro Adapter. However, my splitter hub was defective. I contacted Lenbrook's Ecommerce Sales Administrator who responded promptly with help. She investigated with the matching serial numbers from the unit and packing box.
I was asked to use a shipping label sent to me and return the unit by prepaid courier. The Audio Factory sent me a new replacement unit. This was all done over a couple of days. I was puzzled to find that the replacement unit also displayed T758 on startup in the VFD and not T758 V3i. Introduced in 2006, this NAD receiver is Modular Design Construction (MDC) and upgradable as technology improves. The packing carton indicated the unit had the AM 230 (Dolby Atmos $899 retail) and VM 130i (4K video $849 retail) modules installed which was correct. The USB hub, Wi-Fi dongle and BluOS device worked this time. I was able to do the firmware and BluOS upgrades. I found the downloadable PDF Owner's Manual for the T758 is tedious to work through for the receiver's set up...you need time and patience. I'm pleased with the receiver and performance with large Klipsch speakers all around in 7.1 setup, and I hope it lasts a long time. I have a NAD 7600 stereo receiver from the mid-80s, which was considered the most powerful receiver at that time (maybe still) and it still works perfectly.
Very well balanced speaker for Center Chanel. Compliments my Imagine T’s nicely!!
