The Bluesound PULSE FLEX 2i is an ultra-compact powered wireless speaker designed for flexible multi-room and portable listening. It uses a 25W digital bi-amplified amplifier driving a custom 4" woofer and 1" tweeter, delivering size-defying, full-range sound with a rated frequency response of 45Hz–20kHz. It streams high-resolution audio up to 24-bit/192 kHz via BluOS over Wi‑Fi 5 (802.11ac) and Ethernet and supports major streaming services and network shares. Wireless features include Bluetooth with aptX HD, Apple AirPlay 2, and stereo pairing of two units, as well as grouping with other Bluesound players for whole‑home audio. Physical connections include a combo 3.5 mm analog/optical input, USB‑A for memory sticks, Ethernet, and a 3.5 mm headphone output, and the speaker is available in matte black or white. It can be made truly portable with the optional BP100 / FLEX battery pack, and supports voice control via Amazon Alexa (and other assistants through compatible ecosystems) plus control via the BluOS Controller app and optional Bluesound RC1 remote, all in a compact, decor‑friendly enclosure suitable for small rooms or on‑the‑go listening.
