Bluesound RC1 Remote Control
The Bluesound RC1 Remote Control is a sleek, ergonomic IR remote designed for fast, reliable control of your Bluesound setup—no phone or tablet required. It works right out of the box thanks to built-in Bluesound IR codes embedded in BluOS, putting the most-used commands (like volume, mute, and play/pause) exactly where your fingers expect them. With 10 programmable preset buttons, you can jump straight to favorite stations, playlists, or inputs with a single press. It’s an ideal add-on for multi-room listening, letting you quickly command compatible Bluesound Players throughout the home with simple point-and-control convenience.
