Denon expands its home theater lineup with the Home Sound Bar 550
The $599 soundbar will be available in February.
Denon’s home theater lineup is about to expand with the impending arrival of the Home Sound Bar 550. The company says the soundbar can deliver Dolby Atmos and DTS:X 3D surround sound through its six-driver array.
The soundbar can operate as a standalone device or in concert with other wireless Denon Home speakers. It includes support for AirPlay 2 and Alexa, which you can operate via built-in microphones (a firmware update that will roll out this spring will enable those).
You'll be able to stream music from your local library and services including Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music HD and Tidal. With the Quick Select feature on the remote or Heos app, you can create presets for Internet radio stations or your preferred listening source and modes.
You'll be able to pick up the Denon Home Sound Bar 550 in mid-February for $599 / £599 / €649. Pre-orders will open on February 1st at Denon's website and retail partners.
