What reviewers think

Bloggers and YouTubers have tried this product—so we've summarized their strongest opinions below. Links to full reviews follow.

Product Strengths

  • Confident and spacious sound with surprising bass, capable of filling large rooms
  • HEOS multi-room system for comprehensive audio network creation with rock-solid and responsive performance
  • Touch-sensitive controls with a proximity sensor, and programmable preset buttons for quick access to radio stations
  • Very good voice assistant support via Amazon Alexa, and a mic mute button
  • Versatile connectivity options including Wi-Fi (2.4 and 5 GHz), Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, Ethernet, 3.5mm analog input, and USB port for external storage

Product Considerations

  • The cabinet design is simple and may be considered boring by some
  • Bass can be overwhelming if placed in a corner, and the rear woofer placement affects balance
  • Requires a separate external device for Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice control, though a firmware update should address this
  • Bluetooth latency is very high on iOS and Android devices
  • Soundstage is narrow, so it might not sound very immersive

Comparisons (according to reviewers)

  • Vs Sonos Five: The Denon Home 350 can get louder with fewer compression artifacts and supports Bluetooth and outstanding voice assistant support with Alexa built-in, while the Sonos has a slightly better-balanced sound profile and a more immersive soundstage
  • Vs Bluesound PULSE 2i: The Denon Home 350 has built-in voice assistant support and brings more bass, while the Bluesound requires a third-party device for voice assistants and does not get quite as loud
  • Vs Yamaha MusicCast 50: The Denon Home 350 has a better-balanced sound profile that can produce much deeper bass, and can get a bit louder than it

Takeaway: The Denon Home 350 is a powerful wireless speaker that can create a soundstage that can accommodate even the largest rooms, while also offering a level of finesse and precision. For listeners looking for a speaker to integrate into a Denon HEOS multi-room system, this is a good upgrade that combines seamless connectivity with nearly every streaming service.

What are hifi reviews useful for? (1) Identifying products you should demo in person at a dealer. (2) Learning which products reviewers unanimously praise as the best they've heard (this means they probably are legitimately great). (3) Identifying a product's attributes that satisfy your idiosyncratic needs and tastes. Beyond that, we often discount what reviewers say because they heap praise on most products—and are often apprehensive about publishing strong criticism or comparisons between products. Further, they seldom have more than a few products on-hand, often relying on their memories to compare past products. Always listen for yourself.
