This is a great speaker. The highs are crisp and the lows are full. if you want really deep and well defined lows you should move up to the heos 7 as it has a woofer, but the mid/lows are very well defined in this and full.
This speaker is very handsome, and the app is really quite good!! my apartment has very spotty wifi and this speaker worked well no matter where I put it. If you want to put it really far from your router though think about getting the HEOS BOOST also by Denon.
i love that it also works with google cast, set up process is very easy and quick. This speaker can really go anywhere because of it's nimble size and full sound. the app is even easier to use that the SONOS app however it does not have ALL of the app support that sonos has it is very full and if you want to use google play music a new firmware update supports that!!

Beyond expectation

Was going to follow the crowd and get Sonos but after a good hour testing a variety of systems with the super Best Buy / Magnolia chaps in Hollywood (Thanks Walter and Nick) I fell for the Denon Heos 5, as a nice mid-price speaker for our mid-sized apartment. You can feel the Denon quality straight away and the mid-range was fuller on the Heos 5 and the bass a lot more velvety, not to mention it's aesthetically more pleasing than it's rivals.
After taking it home I more than satisfied: the sound is beyond expectation for something that is chugging out files across the internet. It rings clear on the vocals and feels fat on the bass. The sound happily wraps itself around our apartment and turned up this thing will easily annoy the neighbours. The app is easy to install and connects to all your streaming services and you can have multiple accounts ( a welcome for partners with odd musical tastes! ). My only gripe is the app doesn't have a better equaliser... but that would be me splitting hairs.
Don't follow the flock to Sonos field. Take a detour to Denon range and enjoy a much pleasurable audio pasture.

Phenomenal. I tried Heos at home & returned Sonos

Im particular about sound quality and long term listening. I find many systems exciting but tiring.
I was determined that Sonos must (by now) have a good competitor and since I had tried the Sonos Play 5 at home and returned it I wanted to try Heos. I admit , i was looking for an alternative. I didnt enjoy Sonos because of its lack of sound quality for long term listening and lack a warm, room filling sound. I would never think of a sonos device for my main system (which is serious but not esoteric. if you care: about $8,000 very well spent hard earned bucks) , but I live/eat/work in the kitchen too and my wife wanted music there.
I wasn't prepared to assault my ears for hours on end with a noisy thing. she was going to have to wait until a decent enough device existed at a not too exhorbitant price point. she waited a long time.
Then I found and demo'd Heos easy setup. multi account. she has her weird music on Pandora, and I have mine. we are both happy. she can choose hers and me , mine.
easy listening for hours. simple enough for her to use. I see a lot of use out of it. more sources would be nice, but happy that they will come soon.
will recommend to any friend of mine, beginner or enthuiasist. and will be buying a second one for its easy use in a second room.
don't underestimate the Pandora/Spotify connect style handoff. its the best change to happen in YEARS ! No phone battery issues and phone calls interrupting.
don't hesitate to try it at home.
if you wondering about sonos , demo that first, then Heos.
& have fun listening.

Incredible Speaker

I don't normally write much on reviews but I think I need to help others who might have been in the same dilemma I was on wireless speakers. Originally, I was just looking for something for my garage while I was outside so I bought a Jambox it did the job at first but seemed to lack more of what I was wanting. So I did my research and went to BB to hear Sonos and Heos keeping in mind BB is a huge store and its not going to sound the same. Listened to the Sonos and though wow this is not bad. Stepped over into the Magnolia section and turned on the Heos 3 and what a difference, so stepped it up to Heos 5 and thought wow this is so much better! Of course I listened to the Heos7 and was blown away but came back to reality, its for my garage! Anyway, I am very happy its fills my garage and at times my neighborhood at low volume!! Great speaker I now use in my garage and office, I would recommend getting a NAS with this so that you can access all your music anywhere. My last thought on this speaker: Does Denon ever make any bad sounding speakers?

Awesome Sound Easy To Use

These speakers sound awesome! Completely clear across the frequency spectrum. The bass response is full and rich. It creates an optical illusion due to it's size. It's got a discrete handle if you want to be portable. The setup took about 5 minutes and I was up and playing off my iPhone. It came with all the cables necessary for setup. Great job Denon!

Although the sound quality on these was excellent, we had too much difficulty getting the app to work properly. We returned and bought Sonos and have been much happier with that.
