TORONTO, CANADA, AUGUST 27, 2025 – BLUESOUND, the original hi-res multi-room audio brand, today announces the introduction of two new streaming soundbars, the PULSE CINEMA and PULSE CINEMA MINI. These all-in-one systems represent a top-to-bottom redesign of Bluesound’s award-winning soundbars, combining immersive audio performance, clean low-profile design, and intuitive setup in two form factors designed to fit perfectly with any sized TV.

The PULSE CINEMA is a premium 3.2.2 Dolby Atmos™ soundbar featuring 16 speaker drivers, upfiring speakers, and BluOS multi-room streaming, delivering expansive sound for 55-inch TVs and up. The PULSE CINEMA MINI brings the same thoughtful design and advanced acoustic engineering to smaller-size spaces and secondary TVs, making it the perfect sound system for bedrooms, dens, or condos.

“We wanted to build soundbars that didn’t just sound great—they needed to be beautifully simple to live with,” said Matt Simmonds, Product Manager at Bluesound. “Both soundbars offer high-performance audio in elegant, low-profile forms that can adapt to any space. You get immersive, cinematic sound without any of the typical AV clutter.”

Evolution of Simple AV

The new soundbars reflect Bluesound’s dedication to Simple AV—a design philosophy that brings together audiophile-grade performance and everyday usability in one elegant solution. Whether wall- mounted in a living room or placed beneath a bedroom TV, both soundbars eliminate the need for bulky receivers, complicated wiring, or multi-channel setups.

● PULSE CINEMA: A 47-inch multi-room streaming soundbar built for cinematic performance, featuring 500 watts of total system power and a driver array that includes a dedicated center channel, dual 4” woofers, and dedicated upfiring speakers. The result is a 3D soundstage that enhances everything from movies and games to music and sports with more details and realism.

● PULSE CINEMA MINI: A compact 33-inch soundbar delivering 280 watts of total system power and a surprisingly immersive experience with angled drivers and dual 4” woofers. Ideal for tighter setups and installations, the PULSE CINEMA MINI blends premium sound with subtle, modern design.

Both models support HDMI eARC, optical and analog inputs, and offer flexible placement options, including automatic DSP-powered orientation detection that eliminates the need for manual tuning when wall mounted. They also feature BluOS, Bluesound’s powerful multi-room audio platform that enables wireless surround sound, hi-res music streaming, and integration with smart home control systems like Control4 and Crestron.

“The true beauty of these products is they remove friction in both setup and daily use,” said Morten Nielsen, Bluesound Associate Product Manager. “We focused on building an elegant, low-profile form with our latest acoustic architecture, so Bluesound users don’t have to compromise between aesthetics and sound quality.”

“With the new soundbars, we’re not just delivering hi-res audio,” adds Simmonds. “We’re delivering a new way to experience music and home entertainment — one that’s powerful, flexible, and designed around how people actually live.”

Multi-Room Music with BluOS

The PULSE CINEMA and CINEMA MINI are powered by BluOS, the award-winning multi-room streaming platform. BluOS supports more than 20 streaming services – including TIDAL, Qobuz, Spotify, Amazon Music, Pandora, and Deezer – and playback of high-resolution formats up to 24-bit/192kHz. Users can connect and stream their digital music libraries, enjoy internet radio stations, or sync audio seamlessly across multiple rooms with other Bluesound or BluOS enabled products. The BluOS Controller app, available on iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows, makes it simple to browse, control, and enjoy music— from anywhere in the home.

Scalable and Wireless by Design

Users can easily pair the new PULSE CINEMA and PULSE CINEMA MINI with other Bluesound speakers and create a larger, multi-channel surround system with discrete front and rear channels. Simply pair the soundbars with the PULSE SUB+ subwoofer and one of Bluesound’s stereo solutions as rears to create immersive wireless surround sound system, without the need for a traditional AV receiver or extensive cabling.

Says Simmonds: “We’ve always believed that performance and simplicity aren’t mutually exclusive and with these two new soundbars, we’re giving Bluesound customers and integrators more flexibility with a clear upgrade path to better TV sound.”
