    Overview

    The Bluesound Professional B170S combines a BluOS network music player with a stereo amplifier that can drive either low-impedance loudspeakers or 70V and 100V constant-voltage lines. That makes it a single-box zone for hallways, back-of-house areas and large ceiling-speaker layouts where many small speakers share one run.

    It mounts on its own or alongside up to five more units in a 3U rack space using the optional RM160 rack system.
