Available at Vinyl Sound in Buffalo, New York, the iQ2 shares the same driver complement, amplifier configuration, and input suite as the iQ1 — ¾\" aluminum dome tweeter, 4\" cone woofer, 45W tweeter and 90W woofer amplifier channels per speaker, 270 watts total system power — but adds wireless speaker-to-speaker connectivity, eliminating the interconnect cable between the left and right cabinets. Inputs include phono MM for direct turntable connection, HDMI eARC for TV audio, optical digital, and Bluetooth aptX Adaptive. BluOS provides access to over 20 music streaming services and multi-room audio expansion via the BluOS Controller app. The iQ2 is available in seven finishes — Black, White, Granite Grey, Sandstone Beige, Ember Red, Boreal Green, and a premium Walnut Veneer with copper accents — and is part of Vinyl Sound Buffalo's full \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vinylsound.com\/collections\/speakers\"\u003espeaker collection\u003c\/a\u003e, which includes powered, bookshelf, and floorstanding speakers from leading audiophile brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWireless Stereo and BluOS Connectivity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe iQ2's primary upgrade over the iQ1 is the wireless connection between the left and right speaker cabinets, allowing placement freedom without routing a speaker interconnect cable across shelves, consoles, or desks. Once paired through the BluOS Controller app, the two speakers stay synchronized for consistent stereo playback across all sources. The BluOS platform provides access to Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify, Amazon Music, and over 20 additional streaming services, plays local music libraries via UPnP or USB, and integrates with other BluOS-compatible devices for multi-room audio expansion. The HDMI eARC input connects directly to an eARC-equipped television for high-quality TV audio. The phono MM input accepts a direct moving-magnet turntable connection without a separate preamplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDriver Configuration, Amplification, and Cabinet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach iQ2 speaker uses a bi-amplified architecture with separate 45-watt and 90-watt amplifier channels for the tweeter and woofer respectively, providing independent level and DSP management for each driver without passive crossover losses. The MDF cabinet with MDF-on-aluminum front baffle and aluminum rear baffle provides rigid enclosure construction across the full cabinet, and the bass reflex design extends low-frequency output to 35Hz at −10dB from the 5.7\" × 9.7\" × 7.6\" cabinet. The cloth grille and durable paint finish are designed for long-term appearance in everyday use environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrequency Response (±3dB)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64Hz – 20,000Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLF Cutoff (−10dB)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAmplifier Power (Tweeter)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45 Watts per speaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAmplifier Power (Woofer)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90 Watts per speaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTotal System Power\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e270 Watts (Dual PSU)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTweeter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e¾\" (19mm) Aluminum Dome with Ferrofluid, Neodymium Magnet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWoofer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4\" (100mm) Cone, Rubber Surround, Steel Basket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDesign Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBass Reflex\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAnalog Inputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhono MM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDigital Inputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBluOS, HDMI eARC, Optical\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWireless\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBluetooth aptX Adaptive, Wireless Speaker-to-Speaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCabinet\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMDF with MDF-on-Aluminum Front Baffle, Aluminum Rear Baffle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions (W × H × D)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.7\" × 9.7\" × 7.6\" (145 × 246 × 192mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNet Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.2 lbs (7.36kg) per pair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.2 lbs (8.27kg) per pair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack, White, Granite Grey, Sandstone Beige, Ember Red, Boreal Green, Walnut Veneer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the PSB iQ2 and iQ1?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PSB iQ2 and iQ1 share identical drivers, amplifier power (270W total), inputs (phono MM, HDMI eARC, optical, BluOS, aptX Adaptive Bluetooth), dimensions, and weight. The key differences are: the iQ2 connects the left and right speakers wirelessly with no interconnect cable required, while the iQ1 uses a single included speaker cable between the two cabinets; the iQ2 is available in seven finishes including a premium Walnut Veneer with copper accents, while the iQ1 is available in Black and White only; and the iQ2 has an MDF-on-aluminum front baffle compared to the iQ1's MDF front baffle.
