The NODE is equipped with digital and analog inputs and outputs, making it incredibly versatile. You can bring in audio from your TV and game consoles with HDMI eARC, while dual-band Wi-Fi and gigabit Ethernet keeps music streaming without interruption or disruption. A proximity sensor touch panel offers quick operation and access to up to five programmable presets. Available in matte black and white finishes, the NODE fits perfectly into your home.
Your NODE is ready to intelligently combat bad room tone with Dirac Live, available as an upgrade directly from Dirac. Use Dirac's app to measure your room tone and remove bass traps, echoes and other unwanted distortions from your audio. The result is clear, balanced and detailed sound reproduction for your music and movies.
