Review on Denon CEOL RCD-N10 CD Receiver in Sleek Black by Doyun Siu ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not a bad product, quite normal quality.

Details on the sound unsubscribe later, when the first delights and disappointments subside. Pros below: A multifunctional device that plays from any sources, Tidal support (streaming music in flac) and a bunch of Internet radio stations are especially pleasing. Also via WiFi it will easily play music from your computer, phone. Remote control or smartphone. According to rumors, a large supply of power and quality for very decent speakers, that is, a system for growth. And most importantly, the sound is amazing! Cons below: It's rare, but it looks better in the photo than in real life. At least in my white color. The color is not noble with a hint of ivory, as in the photo, but a cheap cold white. Because of this, an expensive device looks like a cheap microwave :) and the remote control is also made of cheap plastic. Apparently for a Denon device for 40 thousand. This is a budget device. Terribly inconvenient to enter passwords from the remote control, since this is not often necessary. The application does not shine with lickiness. And the main disappointment for me is that the Denon Heos multi-room is only nominally compatible with Google Home and the Google assistant. That is, you can add it to Google Home, but Denon will not play through it and cannot be fully controlled by an assistant either. For normal control, you also need a voice column from Amazon with Alexa, which in 2022 is not needed in FIG. It was much more convenient to control the voice simply from the phone via ok Google, but so far you can’t even turn on the music, just turn it off :) for some reason Denon was greedy for Googlecast, then everything would work. Let's hope that they will add it in the new firmware. And then they have a strange half-support of Google.
