Pros & Cons
Pros
Amp is a decent amplifier that allows you to stream external music sources. The speaker attachment points easily handle banana plugs as well as bare wire. Switching over to high quality streaming and then adjusting the equalization for the speakers is... Read More
The app is functional, though occasionally glitchy. Being a gadget guy, i'm interested in flexibility, which this amp certainly has.
The unit also has a sub woofer out which is way cool and when i hook up my jbl powered sub-woofer it sounds great. Bestbuy sells wi-fi and bluetooth speakers and home theater system with dvd player/amp combo that outputs 1000 watts total.
Cons
No dolby surround / dts configs possible. It crashes and hangs at random times while playing a track from any source. It just stops and the unit flashes red. Unit is small.
Highlights
Quality
Music quality is fine for a home however connecting the amp to wifi was a bit difficult
From a sound quality standpoint i would give this a 5 but i can only give it a 4 overall because the app is frustratingly buggy to use
This is at the end of the day less about the nationality of the labor and much more about the quality of the materials going in
I think mainly its because it has difficulty with the wifi

I have a denon heos link which has allowed me to use my vintage component system to stream digital music
It doesnt play music videos through heos
Take any wired speakers connect them to a heos amp and they can work wirelessly and stream music
