Bluesound Node connection
AnsweredJust want to check if the Node will connect to the amp I’m about to purchase and how it will function. Amp will be either Rega Brio or Elex-r. This will have a Rega P3 connected to it. Ideally, I’d like to control everything from an app on my iPhone. Is it possible to power up the Node from the app and this in turn switches the amp on? Can I then control volume from the app? Thanks, Mark

Hi Mark, the NODE will happily connect to any amplifier that has a spare line level input. I know the Rega amps well but they don’t have any form of trigger inputs to turn them on using other equipment, so you won’t be able to turn on either amp automatically.
Likewise you cannot control the Volume of an amp from the Bluesound App, it’s best to treat / think of the NODE like any other source such as a CD player or Tuner. The NODE can be set to either variable output or fixed, in your situation it’s best to have it fixed then control the volume using the Rega remotes / volume knob otherwise you will have two volume controls in play.
