Hey I'm JR, and I'm here in the studio today with the Denon Home line of
speakers. This is the 150 you see here. We're also going to talk about the 250
and the 350, this little guy's bigger brothers. They're part of the Denon HEOS
wireless multi-room audio system. HEOS is a pretty cool system, it allows you to
have music in all different rooms of your home. You can have speakers of
various types, like these powered speakers, you can also have HEOS built
into your home theater receiver ,you can have sound bars, even just a HEOS amp to
power a set of speakers. You can have HEOS all over the house, and you can
control it and play different songs in different rooms all from an app on your
phone or tablet. The HEOS app lets you stream music from
all the major streaming services as well as the music on your phone. It's pretty
cool. So if you're thinking about ways to get music all over the house, you should
certainly consider HEOS, and if you simply need a powered speaker, the 150,
250 or the 350 may be the right choice for you. The difference between the 150,
250 and the 350 is how many and what size speakers are inside, and how much
amplifier power there is to drive them. The 150 comes with a three and a half
inch woofer and a one-inch tweeter in a ported enclosure, surprisingly full sound
from such a small speaker. When you step up to the 250 you get two three-quarter
inch tweeters, two four-inch midbass woofers, and a five-inch passive radiator.
A lot fuller, a lot bigger sound, good for a larger room. and if you really need
the biggest room-filling sound you can get, you should get the 350 because
there's two three-quarter-inch tweeters, two two-inch mid-range and two six and a
half inch woofers. So again, much bigger sound and a lot more power. Each speaker
in each of these speakers has its own individual Class D amplifier to drive it,
so no matter which one you go with there's always plenty of power to give
it great, full sound. You can use any of these speakers standalone, just one in a
room will do a nice job. If you need more sound though, you can always get two of
the same speaker. So two 150s or two 250s, or two 350s can be stereo paired
together to make a left and right speaker system in any
room of your house, and that would be like one zone. So again, fuller, richer
sound with a better stereo image if you pair two together. Each of these speakers
are available in either black or white, and they have a threaded insert on the
back so if you even want to wall mount them, you can do that with an optional
wall mount bracket. Controlling them is of course most of the time you're going
to do that from the app on your phone, however there is a nice touch-sensitive
control panel on top for basic control right there without having to get your
phone out every single time you want to play or pause or turn the volume up and
down, things like that. There's lots of different ways to get music into these
speakers, of course you're going to control it from the app most of the time
and you'll be using things like Spotify or Pandora, or Sirius XM, all controlled
from the app. There's other ways to do it as well, though, you can Bluetooth music
directly from your phone rather than using your Wi-Fi, maybe have a friend
come over and you don't want to give them your Wi-Fi password they can
Bluetooth music into the speaker. If you have a USB thumb drive with a bunch of
songs on it you can stick it right into the back of the 150, 250, or the 350 and
all of that music can be played and then controlled from your phone. There's even
an auxilary input, so if you want to plug in just an older analog device, no
problem. No matter how you're getting your music into these speakers, the music
source you put in there can all be sent out to the other zones in your HEOS
system. So that little thumb drive of music plugged into the back of this 150,
you could be listening to that in a completely different room on a different
zone of your HEOS system. That's the cool part about this, total flexibility.
So this is the Denon Home 150, 250, and 350 powered wireless speakers for the
HEOS wireless multi-room audio system. So if you have any questions, go ahead
