AMAZON MUSIC HD INTEGRATED IN BLUOS
We brought you news of Amazon's new Music HD service, and now we can confirm that the BluOS wireless multi-room streaming platform is among the first to integrate the new Music HD and Ultra HD services.
The service is available immediately to users of BluOS Enabled products by NAD Electronics, DALI Loudspeakers, and Bluesound wireless multi-room players who are also Amazon customers in the United States, Japan, United Kingdom, or Germany.
As we have already stated, the new hi-res audio platform undercuts more established players such as Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify in the pricing stakes as well as not requiring any additional kit to unfold MQA.
Andrew Haines, BluOS Product Manager, told StereoNET:
We are proud to have been approached and chosen by Amazon to be among the first streaming platforms integrated with Amazon Music HD. And we are particularly proud to support the highest resolution UHD service tier, as the Amazon catalogue is extensive and gives our audiophile audience a broad selection of the highest quality music available.
The new Amazon service could well be a fly in the ointment for competitors but here at SNUK we can only see positives for consumers.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
