Indeed, the HEOS 7 wears such heavy boots, the temptation is to see just how much of a kicking it can deliver. However, I certainly never felt for lack of volume. Unspecified powerĭenon isn’t actually publishing any technical specifications for all its HEOS hardware, much like rival Sonos, so like-with-like comparisons are tricky. Every HEOS device also has a USB input, which can be used to play content locally from a thumbdrive or across the network, and streaming services currently supported by the HEOS ecosystem include Spotify, Pandora and Tunein radio. Whether you have music on your smartphone, networked on a DLNA NAS or lurking on a laptop, the app will discover it all. Sharing content between devices is straightforward. It's a well-designed piece of software, and getting used to it won't take you long.

This is used to connect hardware to your network – simply link the device to your smartphone by 3.5mm cable (supplied) and follow the Add Device prompts – as well as casting music to whatever speakers/rooms you fancy. The entire system is driven by the HEOS app (currently available for iOS and Android). While it can be run independently, perhaps in a games room or den, its birthing in the HEOS gene pool means that you can route whatever is playing elsewhere to the amp as well. The accompanying HEOS stereo amplifier needs only be paired with conventional (passive) speakers of your choice and source components. Of the two system boxes, the Link pre-amp is key to integrating the HEOS ecosystem with your existing AV kit.

The HEOS 5 is a relatively small, but extremely well-balanced mid-range model, while the 48cm-wide HEOS 7 is a thumpingly potent tabletop speaker distinguished by silver trim and a casual disregard for the laws of physics. Unlike the others, it can be aligned either horizontally or vertically. Like its siblings, it’s a well-made piece of kit with a slightly wacky design. Of the former, the HEOS 3 is the entry-level carrot. The HEOS system has launched with three active speakers, the £250 HEOS 3, £350 HEOS 5 and £500 HEOS 7, along with the £300 HEOS Link pre-amp and £400 HEOS stereo amplifier. Of course HEOS can function as a simple mobile-to-speaker wireless hookup too, but it can also be something infinitely more complex that embraces all manner of home entertainment.

Using it, you quickly get the sense that there’s a universe of interweaved functionality up for grabs. It’s enough to make spinning a humble CD seem positively prehistoric.īut while a seductively compact, convenient and expandable multiroom hi-fi setup has obvious appeal, until now it’s not been clear just what a system can offer patrons of multichannel home cinema. With wireless and multiroom hi-fi du jour, a simple swipe can throw an entire discography to multiple rooms. These days anyone can cast music like a graduate of Hogwarts.
