Denon’s new soundbars support hi-res audio and direct streaming from Spotify, TIDAL, and more

Denon has unveiled a pair of swanky new sounders that utilise the company’s HEOS tech to make streaming music directly from services like Spotify, TIDAL, SoundCloud Amazon Music, and Deezer a doddle. The use of HEOS streaming tech also means both the DHT-S516H (£699) and DHT-S716H (£799) are compatible with Amazon Echo and Google Home smart speakers straight out of the box, and can offer multi-room functionality when paired with other HEOS supported soundbars, AV receivers, and speakers. The new range is also capable of hi-res audio playback, and features Class-D amplification across a range of performance-tuned drivers to deliver the “ultimate” home theatre experience when hooked up to a TV.

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
