About the Denon HEOS SuperLink 

Some folks just want one dedicated listening room, and others want the sound of music to echo throughout the house. Denon’s latest HEOS multi-room pre-amplifier and controller fills your entire home with sound.

Your Whole House in One Box

With the SuperLink in control, you’ve got a world of music at your fingertips. Each unit controls four separate HEOS zones, switching from multiple wired or wireless sources and sending them to amps and speakers anywhere in the home. The simple, intuitive HEOS app, a free download via Google Play or iTunes, handles setup and control. The SuperLink is designed for custom smart-home automation installations, and is compatible with full-control platforms from Control4, Crestron, RTI, URC and ELAN. And you can chain-connect one HEOS SuperLink to another, up to eight, for a total of 32 individual zones – just rack ‘em or stack ‘em.

One for All, All for One

One of the strengths of a system such as HEOS is the ability to instantly combine or separate any number of zones, for one big house party or more intimate gatherings. Tap, drag and pinch to combine zones; spread apart to separate. Each has its own source, volume and equalization controls, settings and playlists.

Full-range or Sat-sub Speakers

The SuperLink has built-in digital signal processing, to allow various speaker configurations in every zone – high-pass and low-pass filters with adjustable crossover frequencies, to send signals to a satellite/subwoofer configuration in one location, and to full-range floorstanding speakers in another. Your house, your rules.

Inputs and Outputs Galore

Each of the four zones has its own pre-amp analog and digital outputs, a set of analog inputs a USB input for files on flash drives, plus trigger signals for turning connected equipment on and off, plus four other digital inputs (two coax, two fiber optic) and two Ethernet network connections. All inputs are nameable and assignable to any outputs.

Alexa, Get me a Pizza

The latest addition to the HEOS’ growing capabilities: Voice control via the amazing Alexa. Just add the HEOS home entertainment skill to Amazon’s intelligent assistant, and you’ll be able to add or change zones and devices, turn the volume up or down, choose your sources and play your favorites – all just by asking.

That Great Celestial Jukebox

Decades of hits and centuries of the classics are at your fingertips with HEOS’ streaming services– Spotify, Deezer, Amazon, Pandora, and all the rest. And the SuperLink effortlessly connects to and streams media files from your home network, via a server or another connected computer.

A Heritage of Excellence in audio

Unlike other home automation companies that got into sound as a side effort, Denon has built its reputation on excellence in audio, and that tradition carries over into every HEOS product. Great sound, total control, and ultimate flexibility are the hallmarks of HEOS.
