Functionality
Dio Node has two limitations that you should be aware of before you purchase:
(1) It is designed for Apple devices and has limited functionality for Android and other devices.
(2) It cannot play audio classified as “voice calls” or “system sounds” in iOS (e.g phone calls, FaceTime calls, notification sounds, etc.). Dio Node can play any other type of audio content from your phone to your speakers, though, with no app restrictions!
Absolutely! Dio Node is a completely modular system. You can add more Nodes to your home whenever you want to.
Yes! Any (and we repeat, ANY) compatible Apple devices in your home will be able to connect to your speakers after you set it up – no extra steps required!
Whether it’s your spouse’s phone or your second phone, as long as they are all connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your speakers, they will be able to play from them.
There is no limit. Place as many speakers as you want wherever you want in your home. After that, just pick and choose which ones you want to play from at any time. It’s that simple.
Compatibility
We completely understand that this is a huge limiter for many people that are excited about our product. We are so sorry for that and are doing our best to find a good solution for Android.
Unfortunately, we found that the Android OS has limitations on streaming audio to speakers via Wi-Fi, and addressing these limitations would substantially impact the versatility and cost of our product.
In the meantime, we have discussed some options to enable a limited experience on Android in our How It Works page.
Dio doesn’t work with TVs, but it does work with Apple TV Generation 4 and later.
The best way to check if your Apple TV is compatible is by going to its settings and checking the software version. If it has tvOS 11.4 or later, then you’re good to go!
Dio Node is indeed compatible with any other AirPlay 2-enabled speaker, including speakers from every top brand.
We’ve done our best to create a comprehensive list organized by price. You can check it out by clicking here.
Dio Node works with Sonos and other speakers through Apple AirPlay. However, Dio Node cannot be added to the Sonos app (or any other speaker app). If you want to play through both Dio and Sonos at the same time, simply open up your AirPlay menu like you normally would to play on Dio, and click on the Sonos speakers listed there as well.
Smart Home
Yes, you can.
We have no microphones inside our speaker, so Node itself will not receive voice commands. However, you have the option to set up Dio Node on the Apple Home app, which will then allow you to use Siri on your iPhone, HomePods, or other Apple devices to control your Dio speakers.
Voice commands include pausing/playing speakers in different rooms, playing audio from Pandora or Apple Music on certain speakers, and probably a few other things we haven’t thought to try.
Yes, but it’s completely optional! You have the option to set up Dio Node on the Apple Home app to unlock additional features. This includes using Siri to control your speakers, creating speaker group presets, setting up home automations for your speakers, and more.
Echo Dots and Nest Minis are great for setting up a smart home, but are limited when it comes to audio. To use them as a multi-room audio system, you can only use a handful of compatible apps (for example, neither can play Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud, or Facebook Live) and they need internet connectivity to function, creating a privacy risk for your home. Those issues, plus the speakers’ poor sound quality, make them fine for smart home control, but Dio Node wins out for a robust and private home audio experience.
Company & Policies
No, we are not related to the anime villain or the hard rock singer! We called ourselves Dio because we’re on a mission to make audio simple, since technology these days makes it more and more complex to simply listen to the things you like, wherever you like, hassle-free. And what better way to make audio simple than to make the word itself simple. AuDio, that’s us!
We offer all our customers a free 60-day return policy for Dio Node.
We know you’ll absolutely love the Dio experience in your home, but we also know it’s hard to gauge a speaker without hearing it yourself. So try Dio Node risk-free for 60 days (from the date of delivery), and in the unlikely event you do wish to return it, we’ll give you a free return and a full refund.

We are currently only shipping to the United States.
However, our product has been certified in Canada and Europe as well, so we hope to begin expanding soon!
Verified Reviews
I ordered five speakers, not knowing exactly what to expect. Three of the speakers worked well right out of the box and I have been enjoying them and the ease with which I can play my music anywhere around my house or yard. This is the product I’ve been looking for, for years! Two of the speakers had problems but the incredible customer support and responsiveness I received in handling that situation will go a long way in keeping me as a continued customer and an advocate for this great little product!
For the price, and for the functionality of a multi-room speaker experience (that also sits right in your phone control center because it’s on your network), you won’t find anything better. I feel like the Dio team really cares about making sure customers are successful in setting up the speakers too. We got help to ensure it was set up since we were new to some of the features of how Airplay works on Wi-Fi.
If you are an Apple customer (and your texts aren’t green), and you like good sound in your house, the Dio node is for you.
I recently purchased the Dio Node and I couldn’t be happier! My wife and I love it because we’re finally able to play music and podcasts throughout our apartment from just one app. We’ve always wanted a system like this but assumed it would be too much hassle or money. It’s the simplest multi-room speaker system out there!
The Dio is great for its ability to connect to Airplay and be used together with speakers (like Sonos). It syncs perfectly with other speakers and there is no delay. The sound is great for its price and is as expected for its size. Would definitely recommend if looking for a compact, bluetooth/airplay-capable, well-priced speaker!
We love our Dio Nodes! We have one in the kitchen, one in our bedroom, and another in the living room. It is really so nice to walk through different rooms and have the same, continuous music or audiobook going. No more constant pausing my audio to go grab something from the other room. Not to mention I don’t have to walk over to turn on the speaker every time I want to use it. It’s always ready to go, and it’s so convenient. I love the privacy of not having a microphone in our speakers. Such a simple and beautiful concept. Very well done. I am extremely pleased with these little speakers.
I use it to listen to K-pop when I shower, good for the price point and much more convenient than my old bluetooth speaker
I am enjoying so much more music and audio in my house since getting Dio set up. Controlling the audio room by room is a dream. The speakers are great quality and super easy to use. We can have full house dance parties as a family as well as listen to podcasts and audiobooks as we do chores throughout the house. I’m excited to take these speakers with us wherever we live! Definitely get these for yourself and everyone in your family!
I put my first Dio in my baby’s nursery and it’s a game changer. I love that I can easily cast it from my phone (helpful when juggling other things). And the sound quality is very good. For a speaker that looks small, it‘s mighty. I’ve since bought several more for family members as gifts 🙂
Purchased Dio to replace Bluetooth speakers that we used around the house. It was super annoying having to disconnect and reconnect on Bluetooth when my partner and I took turns DJing- AirPlay makes it seamless to play off of different devices! The speaker blends in well with our interior and has great sound clarity, especially for podcasts and vocal music.
We as a family are enjoying Dio because of its simple operation, ease of use, and its good clean sound. We bought the 3 pack and love going from room to room and having the music be there for us. It sets a good vibe with company and enhances listening to music and podcasts.
