Denon and Marantz Revolutionize Audio Streaming with Qobuz Integration
Denon and Marantz have enhanced their HEOS Built-in ecosystem by integrating Qobuz and Qobuz Connect, offering users a native high-resolution streaming experience. This update allows seamless access to Qobuz’s extensive catalog without the need for casting, Bluetooth connections, or additional applications, reinforcing the brands’ commitment to superior audio quality.
HEOS, the app-based platform from Denon and Marantz, already supports multiple streaming services and provides robust multi-room control across compatible devices. With the addition of Qobuz and Qobuz Connect, users can now enjoy high-resolution audio tracks up to 24-bit/192 kHz directly through the Qobuz app. This integration eliminates the complexities previously associated with high-res streaming, ensuring clear and detailed playback that meets the expectations of discerning audiophiles.
Qobuz, a leading high-resolution music streaming and download service, has been a staple for audiophiles seeking uncompromised sound quality since its inception in 2007. The introduction of Qobuz Connect enhances this experience by allowing direct control of music playback within the Qobuz app. This feature facilitates effortless transitions between various playback devices, such as moving from headphones to a full Hi-Fi system, without interrupting the listening experience.
Technical specifications highlight the synergy between HEOS and Qobuz, providing a robust platform that supports seamless connectivity and high-fidelity sound. Compatible devices include a wide range of Denon and Marantz products, such as the Denon AVR-X3800H A/V Receiver and the Marantz Model 60n Network Integrated Amplifier. Users can easily access Qobuz by updating their HEOS devices and the Qobuz app, then selecting their preferred device to begin streaming in studio-quality sound.
This integration not only broadens the high-res streaming options available to HEOS users but also positions Denon and Marantz as leaders in the audiophile market. By supporting Qobuz alongside existing services like TIDAL and Deezer, HEOS offers an unparalleled range of premium listening options tailored to various user preferences, ensuring that every music enthusiast can enjoy their favorite tracks with the highest sound quality possible.
