Bluesound’s Pulse Soundbar Sheds $200 in Price Reboot
(Bluesound)(March 2, 2018) Bluesound recently slashed prices on its Pulse Soundbar, making the possibility of convenient high-resolution playback a reality for more of the enthusiast world. As of March 1st, the company is offering its black finish Pulse Soundbar for $799 (down from $999), while the white version can be had for $899.
The 120 Watt Pulse Soundbar features two 1” soft dome tweeters, two 2” midrange drivers, and two 4” woofers to deliver two-channel sound from a true lifestyle form factor.

It can also stream direct from handheld devices utilizing Bluetooth aptX, while carrying support for many popular music streaming services (such as TIDAL, Spotify, Deezer, and Amazon Music).
