Once you've set up your HEOS speaker system, you can stream music effortlessly via the dedicated HEOS app. Available for Apple iOS and Android, the app not only lets you stream your stored music but also Internet radio services and popular streaming services such as Spotify, Tidal, Napster and Deezer. Denon CEOL N10 is a mini system with ambitions to be as light as a multi-room speaker – and it can also be a multi-room, as it has a built-in HEOS, which is the multi-room system of Denon and Marantz. You get all music sources except the turntable and cassette tape in the CEOL N10. Photo: Denon The CEOL is a mini HiFi system, designed to fit in any room, with removable speakers and a compact footprint. You can buy the system without the speakers and add your own.

First of all, you get a CD-player built-in, so you can play your music collection as much as you like. You can also stream through your home network with Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth. The Denon also connects to a whole-house wireless audio system, so you can turn up the volume around your house. I have considered going cheap with the DM41 v spending more on small 2/3 box units but the N11 appears to be middle ground which would suit. HEOS multi-room music systems connect together by dual-band Wi-Fi, making them easy to set up with your existing home network. Up to 32 HEOS units can be set up at one time, ensuring even the largest of homes are covered for multi-room music. With HEOS already built-in, the RCD-N10 is ready to go as a single 'zone' without any further adaptors!

We continued to some Tidal streaming; there’s no unfolding of MQA Masters here for high-res streaming (as rival streaming system BluOS offers), but it’s arguable whether high-res is going to improve the excellent sound we enjoyed, whether punching up some bouncy REM or delivering the drifting flow of Philip Glass’s Closing. There was a limit to the size of bass the speakers could deliver, but the deep underlying organ note under Closing was certainly present, if not fully resonant. WPS (WiFi Protected Setup), WiFi Sharing, WMM (WiFi Multimedia), WAC (Wireless Accessory Configuration), WiFi 802.11b/g/n Everything else is pretty much covered, a great deal of it by the inclusion of the Denon/Marantz wireless multiroom platform HEOS. This you’ll control via the HEOS app on your phone or tablet, and it is one of the best and simplest control apps for such platforms. We very much appreciate that HEOS is properly localised and doesn’t show services which aren’t available to Australia (as do most rivals, to the ongoing irritation of users).

The Denon CEOL-N10 isn’t just a massive hit among audio fans for its compact design and unique appearance. This powerful Hi-Fi system offers a modern experience.

FOR ALL.A frequency sweep indicated that (in our listening room) the system was reproducing tones down into the 30s of hertz, finding its full strength in the 60s and 70s and rising impressively smoothly from there. Since the speakers are rear-ported, positioning will affect this somewhat, but can also be usefully employed to tweak it. With HEOS Built-in, every room in your home can have its own sound. Or, group additional HEOS enabled devices like wireless speakers, soundbars, or AV receivers to fill the house with the same song, using your home network. With HEOS Built-in, multi-room means multiple options. ELEGANT MINIMALISM. The CEOL-N10 is incredibly easy to control. You can use the system itself, thanks to a series of easy-to-use buttons, or the included remote control. Not only can you select an input from the HEOS app’s ‘Denon CEOL’ pane, there’s a separate ‘inputs’ option. This duplicates the CEOL’s inputs, but if you have other HEOS products around the house, you will also see their inputs here, as additional functionality to the platform’s multiroom operation. HEOS also delivers multiroom operation. Put another HEOS-compatible player elsewhere in your home and the ‘Rooms’ section of the HEOS app makes it ever so simple to have the same music playing to several or to all HEOS devices at once, whether they be HEOS-equipped soundbars, wireless speakers, even monumental AV receivers. You can also play the inputs of one device over the network to other HEOS devices, but – importantly – only the analogue inputs, not digital ones.

You can even connect your HiFi system to your television with the available connectors in the system, or you can add a turntable too.
