Stereo Sound That Fills the Room

The iQ2 gives you a fuller listening experience through dedicated left and right channels, each with its own amplification and DAC. Vocals stay centred, instruments feel more defined, and sound stretches beyond the speakers themselves. It’s a more natural way to listen, whether you’re starting a playlist, watching a movie, or putting on a record.

Everything in One App

The BluOS Controller App keeps things straightforward. Stream from more than 20 services, play your own music library, or switch between vinyl and TV audio without jumping between apps. You can manage playback across one room or several, and add more speakers over time as your setup grows.

Set Up in Minutes

The two speakers connect wirelessly to each other, so there’s no cable to run between them. That gives you more freedom to place them where they fit best, whether on a shelf, console, or desk. Power on, connect through the app, and you’re ready to listen. Once set up, the system stays perfectly in sync.

Designed for Every Shade of You

The iQ2 is built to fit into your space, not take it over. Its compact size works well in smaller rooms and everyday setups, while the clean lines keep things looking simple and modern. A cloth grille and durable paint finish help it hold up to daily use without showing wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the PSB IQ2 BluOS Streaming Powered Speakers?

The PSB IQ2 BluOS Streaming Powered Speakers are a true wireless all-in-one stereo system that pairs the left and right speakers using a low-latency wireless link, eliminating the inter-speaker cable used in the IQ1. The IQ2 integrates Burr-Brown Class-D amplification, a 24-bit/192kHz DAC, and the BluOS streaming platform in a compact bookshelf cabinet. Available in seven premium finishes, the PSB IQ2 is available at Trutone Electronics in Mississauga, Ontario.

How does the true wireless connection work between the PSB IQ2 speakers?

The PSB IQ2 uses a low-latency wireless link to pair the primary and secondary speakers, keeping both channels synchronized without audible delay or dropouts. This gives listeners more freedom in speaker placement since no cable needs to run between the left and right speakers. Once configured through the BluOS Controller App, the wireless stereo pair operates as a standard two-channel system with no additional steps required.

What finishes are available for the PSB IQ2?

The PSB IQ2 BluOS Streaming Powered Speakers are available in seven finishes: Black, White, Ember Red, Boreal Green, Granite Grey, Sandstone Beige, and Premium Walnut Veneer. The painted colour finishes feature a fingerprint-resistant coating applied during manufacturing. The Premium Walnut Veneer finish pairs real wood grain with copper-finished accents for a warmer, more refined aesthetic.

How does the tweeter amplifier in the PSB IQ2 differ from the IQ1?

The PSB IQ2 uses independent 45-watt amplifiers dedicated to each tweeter, while the IQ1 uses a single shared two-channel amplifier delivering 45 watts per channel to both tweeters. Both models share the same 90-watt-per-woofer configuration and 270-watt total system power. The independent tweeter amplifier topology in the IQ2 reflects its higher-specification internal architecture.

Does the PSB IQ2 include a built-in phono stage for a turntable?

The PSB IQ2 BluOS Streaming Powered Speakers include a built-in MM phono preamp, allowing a moving-magnet turntable to connect directly without a separate phono stage. RCA inputs also accept line-level sources such as a CD player or media player using the same connection.

How does the PSB IQ2 work as a television audio system?

The PSB IQ2 BluOS Streaming Powered Speakers include an HDMI eARC input that connects directly to a television's HDMI eARC port, providing lossless audio playback and TV remote volume control without a soundbar or receiver. An optical digital input is also available for televisions without HDMI eARC. Switching between TV audio and music sources is handled through the BluOS Controller App.

How does the PSB IQ2 support multi-room audio?

The PSB IQ2 BluOS Streaming Powered Speakers connect to any BluOS-enabled system and can synchronize playback with up to 63 additional BluOS components across a home from a single app. The BluOS Controller App manages group playback, individual room volume, and source selection from any iOS, Android, macOS, or Windows device. Apple AirPlay 2 extends the same multi-room capability to the Apple ecosystem.

What Bluetooth codec does the PSB IQ2 use and why does it matter?

The PSB IQ2 supports Bluetooth with aptX Adaptive, the highest-quality Bluetooth audio codec available, delivering near-lossless wireless audio at variable bit rates of up to 24-bit/96kHz. Unlike standard Bluetooth or aptX HD, aptX Adaptive dynamically adjusts its bit rate based on connection conditions for more stable audio in environments with wireless interference. This makes the IQ2's Bluetooth input a high-quality option for streaming from a phone or laptop without relying on the network-based BluOS connection.

Can the PSB IQ2 be expanded with a powered subwoofer?

The PSB IQ2 BluOS Streaming Powered Speakers include a dedicated subwoofer output with DSP-controlled high-pass and low-pass filters for seamless integration with any powered subwoofer. The DSP crossover manages the transition between the IQ2's woofers and the subwoofer for a smooth, unified low-frequency response without manual crossover tuning. Adding a subwoofer requires only the subwoofer itself.

What smart home platforms and voice assistants does the PSB IQ2 support?

The PSB IQ2 BluOS Streaming Powered Speakers integrate natively with Control4, Crestron, Nice, RTI, and URC smart home automation systems through the BluOS platform. Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant are supported for hands-free voice control, and Siri is available through Apple AirPlay 2. Top-panel touch controls on the primary speaker provide direct hardware access to volume, playback, and two customizable presets.
