On October 22, 2020 Denon will push a firmware update to current Denon sound bar products eligible to receive the update (Denon HEOS Bar, Home Cinema HS2, DHT-S716H and DHT-S516H).
Denon sound bars with HEOS Built-in – the HEOS Bar, Home Cinema HS2, DHT-S716H and DHT-S516H – will receive a Roku TV Ready update via this new firmware update.
The update will be delivered via over-the-air firmware update. Users need to have their sound bars connected to the internet to receive the new firmware.
The Roku TV Ready program enables Roku partners to develop products that work seamlessly on the Roku platform, making setup and product use a breeze. Denon sound bars underwent thorough testing and were certified by Roku to work with their line of Roku TV models. When Denon sound bars with HEOS Built-in are plugged into a Roku TV, the television will instantly recognize and configure itself for that audio device. The usercan also use one remote for both the TV and sound bar.
HEOS is a wireless multi-room sound network comprising a family of music players for the home. There is a free app to control devices with HEOS Built-in from iOS, Android or Kindle phone or tablet. Users can enjoy their favorite streaming music services, internet radio or owned music collections and set-up is a breeze.
