Naim Muso QB GEN2 Compact Wireless Speaker

Introducing Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation
Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation is the successor to the multiple award winning Mu-so Qb wireless music system, re-engineered for class leading performance, functionality and usability by Naim Audio experts in Salisbury, England. Combining 45 years of hi-fi mastery with the very latest music-streaming technology and premium design quality, this is the ultimate wireless speaker your music deserves.
Stream your music in high-resolution quality (Mu-so Qb can handle files up to 32bit/384kHz) via UPnP™, or browse millions of songs through AirPlay 2 (including Apple Music), Spotify® Connect, TIDAL, Chromecast built-in and Internet radio. Upgraded Wi-Fi connectivity promises a slicker streaming experience, while Ethernet remains an option if you prefer things hard-wired. You can also connect devices wirelessly via Bluetooth®.
Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation’s USB input, meanwhile, supports music playback from USB drives, while its optical input means you can easily connect your TV and experience enhanced sound quality from your favourite television programmes, films and games.

More Music Power
New multicore Digital Signal Processor (DSP) drives higher performance, providing 2000 MIPS (Million Instructions Per Second) compared to original Mu-so’s single-core, 150MIPS DSP.

Roon Ready
Roon transforms the experience of browsing music. Beautifully laid-out metadata is located automatically, then interconnected by links to build a searchable digital magazine about your music collection.

Chromecast built-in
Google’s streaming service allows you to seamlessly link to 100s of supported apps, including Deezer, Qobuz, Plex, TuneIn, SoundCloud and Pandora.

New Intelligent Controls
All-new intuitive interface has 15 touch sensitive buttons and a bold, illuminated volume dial. A proximity sensor wakes the display as your hand approaches.

Award-Winning Music Streaming Technology
Featured in the Uniti range of all-in-one players, Naim’s high-end network players and now Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation, Naim’s unique streaming platform is extremely powerful and adapts to new technologies.

Upgraded Speaker Drivers
A joint development project between Naim and Focal R&D departments has delivered improved and highly optimised drive units for Mu-so 2nd Generation. Focal has been creating benchmark acoustic equipment since 1979.

Smart Integration
Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation is compatible with the Google Home and Apple HomeKit with AirPlay 2 smart product ecosystems, allowing it to be integrated with other compatible devices for voice activation, control and multi-room functionality.

Room Compensation
Choose from three different settings – Near Wall; Near Corner; No Compensation [In Free Space] - to tailor your listening experience to wherever the Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation sits in the room.

Easy App Control
Available for iOS and Android devices, the updated Naim app allows you to browse by artist, genre, album and more, complete with artwork and extended music information. You can also control volume, light settings, room modes and create playlists.

Music in Every Room
Enjoy Mu-so 2nd Generation on its own or in a multiroom music system. Combine it with other networked Naim products (including 1st Generation Mu-so and Qb), or with other AirPlay 2-compatible wireless speakers; or with other Chromecast devices.

Even Better Wireless
Upgraded Wi-Fi connectivity offers better bandwidth and more flexibility - all to deliver a slicker wireless music-streaming experience - while Ethernet remains an option, if you prefer to hard wire your Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation.

Customisation
Mu-so and Mu-so Qb come with a classic black Naim speaker grille. There are also three additional colours to choose from to help complement your living space and style.
Choose from Olive, Terracotta or Peacock to make your Mu-so system stand out even more. Swapping speaker grilles is an easy clip-on clip-off process that takes seconds.
