Denon HEOS Link HS2 - Wireless Pre Amplifier

About the Denon HEOS Link

Add Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Streaming to your Existing Stereo

I love the sound of my home stereo, so I'm not looking for a complete receiver overhaul. But, man, would I love the convenience of wireless music. Denon offers a quick and easy solution to this type of dilemma. The Denon HEOS Link connects to your current receiver or amplifier and gives you wireless access to all your music.

This second-generation version of the HEOS Link lets you stream music via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. And when you download the HEOS app for Apple®, Android®, or Kindle Fire, you can queue up and control music selections, both on the HEOS Link and on all other HEOS speakers and components you add throughout your home.

Heos Offers a Wide Array of Music Options

The HEOS app puts an incredible amount at your fingertips. You have access to music stored on your smartphone or tablet, plus downloads found on a server or computer. That includes your high-resolution music files.

There's also support for Pandora®, TIDAL, Amazon Prime, and SiriusXM. Pull up a new song or podcast on SoundCloud, or stream Internet radio from TuneIn or iHeartRadio. And if you're a Spotify® Premium subscriber, Spotify Connect lets you play all your favorite albums and playlists.

Built-in Bluetooth Gives You More Musical Freedom

Want to listen to audio from YouTube? Or maybe you have a new music service not yet available through HEOS? The latest generation of HEOS has you covered. Use Bluetooth to stream any and all audio sources from your phone or tablet through the HEOS Link, without restrictions. You can also send that Bluetooth stream to other HEOS speakers.

Add Heos Speakers Throughout the House

The HEOS app lets you choose one song for your stereo with the HEOS Link, and something completely different on other HEOS speakers elsewhere. Or you can group HEOS speakers together and have the same tunesplaying throughout several rooms. Have first-generation HEOS gear? All HEOS components are still compatible, so you can mix and match.

Send TV and CD Sound to other Rooms

The HEOS Link has analog and digital connections for other audio sources like a disc player, cable or satellite box, portable music player, or streaming media device. You can send music from any of these connected sources to other HEOS speakers and components.

Easy Wi-Fi setup and control with the HEOS app

One reason people loved the first generation of HEOS was because setup was fast and easy. Denon hasn't changed that a bit with the their latest series. An included setup cable connects your smartphone or tablet to the HEOS Link. With a few taps of the app, your Wi-Fi settings are automatically transferred. When you unplug the cable, you'll have full wireless control of the HEOS Link.
