Every summer, my family has a big party. It's the one time of the year we invite a large group over to hang out on the back deck, enjoy the summer scenery, and disturb the neighbors that live just a few feet away from our door.This year, we brought out...

The lack of Bluetooth out the box and hi-res support is a shame, but Heos 1 delivers impressive sound quality for such a small speaker, while the portable, splash-proof Go Pack is a killer upgrade.

What is the Denon Heos 1? Heos 1 is the entry-level model in Denon's family of wireless multiroom speakers, sitting below the top-end Heos 7 (£499), Heos 5 (£349) and Heos 3 (£249). This compact, unobtrusive speaker can be placed anywhere in the house,...

HEOS was one of the first of the new wave of wireless multiroom systems, reassuringly backed by the audio heritage of Denon and the D&M stable, and developed in part here in Australia from the ‘Avega' system of wireless speakers going back almost a...

By The Gadgeteer on January 15, 2016

When it comes to multiroom music systems, Sonos is the king. However, being the king makes you a target and Denon has Sonos in its sights . Denon's ammunition is HEOS (Home Entertainment Operating System). This system ranges from the small HEOS 1...

By Trusted Reviews on June 04, 2015

Hands-on with the Denon HEOS 1 The HEOS 1 is wireless multiroom speaker that's looking to sonically shoot down the Sonos PLAY:1 . It's also the smallest in the HEOS family that started with last year's HEOS 3, HEOS 5 and HEOS 7, and we've just got our...

By Pocket-lint on June 04, 2015

Denon announced its entry into the multi-room arena last year, hoping to take on Sonos on"head-to-head". Now the company has extended the HEOS wireless speaker range to do exactly that. Along with the HEOS HomeCinema soundbar and subwoofer combination,...

International Review By Les Numériques on June 25, 2015 80

La Heos 1 s'en sort très bien sur la partie audio. Le multiroom fonctionne bien et l'application qui contrôle l'ensemble est au point. Malheureusement, le pack en option Bluetooth + batterie qui nous avait plu dans un premier temps est quasi...

International Review By AV-Magazin on August 19, 2015

Denon bietet mit dem Heos 1 einen klangstarken und kompakten Netzwerklautsprecher, der sich dank seiner einfachen Bedienung über die ausgereifte Heos-App für jegliche Multiroom-Lösungen empfiehlt. Dank des praktischen Go Pack-Erweiterungsset ist die...

International Review By Area DVD on June 18, 2015

Die neue HEOS-Komponente hat ihren Platz innerhalb des erfolgreichen Multiroom-Systems HEOS by Denon zweifellos zurecht. Der kompakte, sehr gut verarbeitete und nicht zuletzt schicke Wireless-Lautsprecher spielt dynamisch und mitreißend auf, erhält sich...
