Reviews around bass (5.00 of 5)

  • Honestly the app is a complete afterthought and nothing ever really works as you intended
  • As far as the HEOS1, well it sounds very tinny with pretty good bass
  • Software app is absolutely terrible and extremely restrictive, no Apple Music support as of Nov 2016

Reviews around use (5.00 of 5)

  • However, I've been using Bluetooth, which I really enjoy because I can play EVERYTHING on my phone through it versus what the app will allow me to play (i.e. Sonos)
  • First, this is the perfect wireless speaker for pool/hot tub use.
  • The HEOS speakers sound excellent when used on a wifi network and the audible difference with this new feature is so minimal it’s not worth talking about, especially on the smaller speakers like the HEOS 1.

Reviews around product (4.30 of 5)

  • After about three months a red light o death appeared and it completely stopped working
  • I like the product, and it works well, but the one I received had obviously been returned by a previous customer
  • I like the product, and it works well, but the one I received had obviously been returned by a previous customer
  • All in all, another highly recommended product from Denon.
  • I would not purchase another Denon speaker nor can I recommend the product to a prospective buyer.

Reviews around system (4.10 of 5)

  • Add these to your home WiFi network and you have a smart sound system in every room
  • When the HEOS app is working well, the system is easy to use, and due to the streaming over wi-fi, rather than Bluetooth, sounds great.
  • All of this said, when the system is working well (as in my father's experience), the speaker has good sound for its size and price point.
  • But this speaker is part of some incredibly complex nightmare system that requires serious IT skills
  • To find one that is part of a highly capable wireless whole-house system makes it especially attractive

Reviews around bite (4.10 of 5)

  • But Sonos sounds a bit cleaner and tighter due to the EQ tuning
  • It does work a bit better if at least one of them is hard wired.
  • It does work a bit better if at least one of them is hard wired.
  • Nice unit but a bit hard to set up and doesn't seem to be as user friendly as one would expect with a company like Denon

Reviews around connectivity (3.86 of 5)

  • Purchased HEOS first version two years ago and had problems with consistent connectivity throughout my 3800, four story townhouse; very frustrating and embarrassing
  • Tried at least five different, highly recommended routers to no avail and concluded that HEOS must be the problem, but recently dumped the standard router for a high density web mesh system and the connectivity is now flawless
  • Well Made Wireless Speaker with Great Connectivity via WIFI and Bluetooth
  • Compact, not too heavy, good Bluetooth connectivity, great sound out of a small
  • After about three months a red light o death appeared and it completely stopped working

Reviews around heos (3.54 of 5)

  • If you are interested in superb surround HEOS is the way to go.
  • When the HEOS app is working well, the system is easy to use, and due to the streaming over wi-fi, rather than Bluetooth, sounds great.
  • So I would highly recommend the HEOS 1 and was very pleased with accessories4less.
  • Although I read that the Sonos bass range is better, the Heos mid and high are very crisp and the bass is not forced.
  • While it doesn't sound as good as the HEOS 1 (partially due to its smaller size

Reviews around app (3.33 of 5)

  • But the app, functionality, and customer service from Denon is atrocious.
  • Imagine having to re-pair your devices with a clunky app on a daily basis whenever you want to use them
  • The sound is nice, but the app is HORRIBLE and extremely buggy
  • I had no trouble installing the app on my iPhone and getting the Heos 1 working
  • The app needs work but the pairing and multi room functions work well
