Denon - Heos Link HS2 Streaming Media Player - Black and Gunmetal

Love this unit! Let's me stream whatever I want from any source, from anywhere in my house. I am not a technical guy but set this up myself in minutes.

If you get this device pay them to install it. Still don't have it working correctly.

Yes, the sound is great if you just want to listen to music. This system didn't work for me, however, as my goal was to integrate TV sound with the whole house stereo system. There was an untenable time delay between the TV speaker system and the Heos speaker system resulting in an untenable echo between the two. This problem was resolved for me by switching to Sonos.

As advertised, not much use without an amp but great for my purpose

HEOS system works great, integrating the various systems. Highly recommended.

Good hardware, really poor software. I've owned two Denon HEOS Amp HS2, and I've sold both of them. The app would stop working and freeze. I had to disconnect and reconnect the amp power cord in order to gain access to it again. I am now using a BlueSound PowerNode amp, and the has the same issues as the HEOS Amp HS2. For what these units cost, I rather recommend buying a Networked AVR. My Denon X4200 that I've got in my home theater system works much better than a stand alone music streamer. The good things about the Denon HEOS Amp: 1) It supports a lot of music providers. 2) It's sound good. 3) It's awesome when it works. The bad: 1) Software. When the app doesn't and freezes. 2) Disconnecting power from the unit to regain control. 3) Having to run initial set up multiple times when re-installing the app. The Denon and Bluesound have a better DAC than Sonos. However, I don't think most people will notice the sound difference.

This thing and the entire Heos system just plain doesn't work even the Geek Squad guys couldn't get it to work.
