Bluesound BSP1000-B – PoE 6.5" Network Streaming Speaker (Black)

Product Overview

The Bluesound Professional BSP1000 (Black) is a PoE-powered, full-range network active loudspeaker with an integrated BluOS streaming player, designed for indoor and outdoor commercial AV installations where a single ethernet cable provides both power and network connectivity. The 6.5-inch LF driver paired with a 1-inch HF driver covers 45Hz–23kHz, and maximum SPL reaches 100dB using PoE++ powering. IP65-rated (with the included port plug installed), the BSP1000 is suitable for covered outdoor applications including restaurant patios, hotel terraces, and commercial exterior zones. Hi-res audio streaming to 192kHz/24-bit and integration with leading control systems make it a strong choice for premium commercial audio deployments.

Product Description

The BSP1000 eliminates the separate streamer and amplifier in each speaker zone — the BluOS player is embedded in the speaker, and PoE+ or PoE++ from a network switch delivers both network connectivity and operating power via a single Cat5e/6 cable. The bass-reflex enclosure includes a port plug for outdoor use to protect against water ingress and maintain IP65 compliance. An integral wall-mount bracket allows 90 degrees of swivel and 170 degrees of rotation, giving installers precise aim for even SPL coverage across the listening area.

As with all BluOS devices, the BSP1000 can operate as a standalone single-zone streaming speaker or group with any number of other BluOS speakers and players on the network — including the BSP200, BSP500, and BSW150 subwoofer. Two or more BSP1000 units can be configured in stereo or multiple mono arrangements. Commercial music services — SoundMachine, Custom Channels, QSIC, SiriusXM for Business, and Tunify — are supported natively alongside Spotify, Tidal, and Qobuz. The optional CP100 wall-mount panel provides local zone control for staff.
