NAMM 2025: Samson Announces New BR1 Bluetooth® Adapter

Samson, an industry pioneer in professional audio products, announces the new BR1 Bluetooth® Adapter at NAMM 2025. The BR1 will be available at major MI retailers in Q2 of 2025 for $79.99 MAP.

Samson’s BR1 Bluetooth Adapter provides Bluetooth connectivity to any mixer, PA system, or other audio setup with an XLR input. With a built-in rechargeable battery that lasts up to 6 hours, and 100 feet of line-of-sight operating range, the BR1 adds easy wireless audio streaming from your smart device to your audio rig.

Convenient Bluetooth Connectivity
Samson BR1 is designed to connect to any XLR input to provide easy and instant Bluetooth audio for live sound rigs. The compact “stick” form-factor can plug right into the back of an active PA speaker or into the XLR input on a mixer channel, eliminating the need to run cables from a separate, bulky receiver. The device features 6 hours of battery life from a built-in rechargeable battery and 100 feet of operating range, providing easy wireless freedom to stream from your phone, tablet, or computer anywhere on stage or in your venue.

Built For Stereo
While many Bluetooth systems operate in summed mono, BR1 is built to allow true stereo sound via both wired and wireless options. It features an additional male XLR output on the unit to allow a cable to be run into a second speaker or stereo input, creating a wireless stereo rig with a single XLR cord. It also features the ability to wirelessly link with a second BR1 unit, creating a single system that can be paired with any smart device for true wireless stereo audio streaming.

Key Features:

• Bluetooth® wireless pairing with enabled smart devices
• 2 Male XLR connectors for wired stereo sound
• Wireless stereo linking for true cordless stereo
• 100' range of operation (line-of-sight)
• 6 hour battery life (rechargeable via USB-C)
