Sounds quite balanced. Treble with a little less brilliance. Bass good in terms of level, but not crisp in sound. Plus point handling. Very simple initial set-up. Good app control. Good operation on the device. App allows many music sources - also via the USB socket.

Home games are the most beautiful after all. Owners of the Denon Home 250 can justifiably claim this. Because the multi-room speaker combines a whole bundle of positive features.

    Denon has always had a knack for combining sophisticated technology with contemporary design. The Home 250 is no exception. With four drivers and a passive radiator, the compact wireless speaker knows how to set the mood without overestimating itself. Above all, the possibility of coupling with other devices to form larger setups through Heos built-in is of course all the more impressive here.
