Bluesound Pulse Mini

Bluesound Pulse Mini review: A sublime high-end wireless speaker offering muscular-yet-musical sound and premium design, but networking could be better

Outstanding build quality and design ; Muscular sound with plenty of top-end detail ; Excellent streaming services and hi-res support

No DLNA/uPnP support ; Clunky network share setup ; Bass-heavy sound not for everyone

A superb high-end wireless speaker offering muscular-yet-musical sound and premium design, let down only by clunky network sharing.

Bluesound Pulse Mini review

Bluesound shoehorns its impressive sound quality into a slightly smaller package...

The Pulse Flex remains a talented member of the Bluesound family, but other speakers have bettered its performance since its release

Bluesound Pulse Mini review

A powerful alternative to Sonos

High price ; Manual network sharing ; No Apple Airplay

Able to stream from anything anywhere, this powerful standalone or multi-room speaker is best thought of as a hi-res upgrade on a Sonos speaker.

Bluesound Pulse Mini Bluetooth speaker review: Great sound, strong feature set, and a few rough edges

The Bluesound Pulse Mini sounds great, will mesh with other Bluesound speakers, and plays music from a wide variety of sources. But its out-of-box experience and controls leave something to be desired.

Very good sound ; Easy-to-operate EQ ; Versatile inputs and broad support for codecs and streaming services

Weak help ; No visual or haptic feedback from touch controls

You can pay a lot more for loudspeakers that sound no better than the Pulse Mini and that don’t have its myriad capabilities. And, if there’s a choice to be made, I’ll always opt for sonic excellence and features over the niceties of set-up and...
