QUICK SETUP GUIDE

This simple guide will help you get started with your M33. 

Your M33 can be connected to your home network via Wired or Wireless 
connection.

IMPORTANT! 

•  For wired and wireless connection to be established, ensure that a 

broadband router that supports Ethernet and/or Wi-Fi standards is 
setup and available. 

•  Tablets, smartphones and other applicable devices that support iOS 

(Apple) or Android operating system can be used as mobile device 
controller. These devices are not supplied with your M33. 

•  Download and install the corresponding “BluOS Controller” App for 

your device. 

•  The BluOS App is available as a Mobile App for Android, iOS, Kindle 

and Desktop App for Windows and OS X Computers.  Mobile Apps are 
handled by the respective Application Store of the Mobile devices. 

•  Desktop Apps are available to download directly from the Bluesound 

homepage -
