The Heos 3 isn't the speaker that's made our heads spin the most. It doesn't work miracles on its own, but together with another Heos 3 it performs a lot better. The multiroom function works well and the app that controls everything is up to the task. How...
Abstract: These days anyone can cast music like a graduate of Hogwarts. With wireless and multiroom hi-fi du jour, a simple swipe can throw an entire discography to multiple rooms. It's enough to make spinning a humble CD seem positively prehistoric. But while a se...

The lack of Roon capability prevents the HEOS from being the audiophile's choice for a multiroom wireless platform. Roon is very popular with audiophile enthusiasts, The HEOS literature has stated that AIFF is "coming soon" for about a year. It's a bummer
Over the past few months, I've become a fan of the HEOS system. During my review of the Marantz AV7703, I came to appreciate not only the high-quality streaming but also the ease of having the HEOS speakers play what was streaming to my main system. The H...

Having been a believer in wireless and network audio for some time now, the HEOS reaffirms my belief. Audio quality is fantastic, set up easy, the numerous sources you can stream is just crazy, and connectivity is very flexible. I stuck with wireless, but...
The Denon HEOS 3, has good sound quality with deep bass. Its ability to be wall mounted gives you placement flexibility. Multiple units can be added and used in a stereo arrangement
No PC app. It's rear ported design means it needs to be a few inches away from your wall for maximum effectiveness. Mid-range and High frequencies can use a little more detail,
Being that this is one of Denon's first forays into the multi-room arena, it's a pretty good first step. Overall, the HEOS 3 has pretty good sound quality. It has surprisingly strong deep bass for its size, but the mid-range and upper registers can lack a...
