Buy Bluesound RC1 - Simple IR Remote Control at desertcart UK. Review: An essential 'accessory' for the streamer. 100% improvement in usability. - I'll start (and finish!) with a moan. I actually cannot fathom why this remote is not included as standard with the Bluesound Node..oh wait, yes I can- extra currency for the manufacturer! There was a time not so long ago when every item of hifi that had remote capability came with a remote control.. now it's an optional extra, with the assumption being that the 3rd rate user-experience of using an app will suffice for most. Anyway the reason it's essential in my opinion, is that it saves the soul-crushing, rigmarole of swipe/unlock/press/swipe/swipe/press/swipe/jab/jab/swipe/press, etc, etc required everytime you want to do something basic like switch off the display or change track or source. The app is great for setting things up, but honestly, I look at my phone often enough without having to jab away at it every single time I want to do anything with the Node. So aye, I would say it's pretty much essential and improves the whole experience of using the streamer 100% Can't believe I waited a year of ownership before buying this. Oh wait, £50 more, that's why I waited! The remote itself is fantastic quality- as solid and premium feeling as any remote I've ever used. And the absolute best thing, is the presets. No longer buried under swipes and jabs sub-menus on a phone, but a single, instant change of preset. It's just like changing station on a radio or TV. There's no delay on the sources I've tried- I switch between Radio Paradise and Qobus and a station or two on Tunein, for example. A lovely user experience. But once again and finally, guys at Bluesound, just stop with the ringing every cent from the customer business model- just include the darned thing in with the Node; even if it raises the price by a bit. It really makes the Node far, far more usable- a game changer in daily usage for me. Review: Just the job. - Very well made and work well. ## Features - The RC1 is designed with functionality in mind The mostused and most-needed functions are the most accessible Every feature has been thought through in detail - With the IR codes now built-in to BluOS the RC1 will work right out of the box Just ensure the Player is on the latest firmware insert the included 3V CR2032 coin-cell batteries and start listening - Pulse Flex owners that love the 5 preset buttons on the top of their Player will be glad to see the RC1 has quick access to 10 presets - Players can now be set in the BluOS App to operate on 1 of 8 different IR channels (0-7) - Connectivity Technology: Infrared ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B082FS6KHC | | Battery Types | CR2032 | | Best Sellers Rank | 14,590 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 1,006 in Remote Controls (Electronics & Photo) | | Box Contents | Remote | | Brand Name | Bluesound | | Button Quantity | 16 | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Bluesound Audio Players | | Compatible Streaming Media Player Models | Bluesound PULSE | | Controller Type | Button Control | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (186) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00786357001180 | | Item Type Name | Bluesound Remote Control | | Item Weight | 0.17 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Bluesound | | Manufacturer Part Number | BLS RC1 | | Maximum Number of Supported Devices | 8 | | Maximum Range | 10 Metres | | Model Name | Bluesound RC1 | | Model Number | BLS RC1 | | Network Connectivity Technology | Infrared | | Number of Batteries | 2 CR123A batteries required.

All Bluesound Gen 2 and Gen 2i Players have an IR sensor built-in and now have the IR commands for the RC1 embedded in BluOS. This means that as long as your Player is updated with the most recent BluOS firmware, the RC1 will work right out of the box.

Anything you can define in BlueOS controller as a preset, it can call. It is a nice remote… don’t think it can do what you are after though. **Q: Does this work with nad m10?** A: Thanks for your question. The Bluesound RC1 will control BluOS-enabled NAD products, including the M10.

Somewhat overpriced, so only 4/5 for overall rating. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bluesound RC1 - Simple IR Remote Control - Bluesound Node Wireless Multi-Room High Resolution Music Streamer - Black - Bluesound Pulse Flex 2i Portable Wireless Multi-Room Smart Speaker with Bluetooth - Black - Compatible with Alexa and Siri --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/219707581-rc1-simple-ir-remote-control](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/219707581-rc1-simple-ir-remote-control) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
