Rated 5 out of 5 by from SUPER SOUND! The Denon Home Sound Bar 550 is one fab sounding soundbar! Very musical, immersive and doesn’t take over your living space. True to the Denon audiophile DNA. That said, the remote is a bit chintzy. Such a quality soundbar should be paired with a better remote. Also, status lights give very little info/feedback. You have to listen attentively after selecting a mode change to see if it’s what you like. Yet, I wouldn’t part with the soundbar because sound is first with me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from SS Round one. It’s an excellent speaker. Sounds great for music. Sounds great for the television. I will be adding a subwoofer and bookshelf speakers later.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Music and TV Great sound. Works good with my 2 home 350's for TV surround sound and Heos. A Heos subwoofer would be a good compliment to this system.

Questions

Hello, I have the 550 sound bar, Denon wireless sub with heos, and two Denon 150 speakers for my surround system. My question is I’ve added a second row of chairs in my 18’x 30’ tv room. Can I add two more Denon 150’s for the back row? Or what do youthink

Asked by: Glaney
Hello, The Home 550 will work with one pair of rear Home speakers and a Home subwoofer as a surround set-up. If you wish to have more speakers in your surround system, it would require you to start from scratch with an AV receiver and passive speakers hard-wired to the AVR. Wireless Home speakers are not able to receive a discrete surround sound feed from an AVR. Soundbars (with or without wireless rear speakers and a wireless subwoofer) are designed primarily to improve on the sound of a flat screen TV's speakers rather than to used as an alternatively for a full Home Theater system with passive surorund sound speakers and a subwoofer.

Have a demon rec. with 9 speakers the problem is the other speakers are overpowering my center speaker they sound great but my center floor speaker you can hardly hear them talking! Not sure if the center speaker is a P A speaker or made for tv surround ?

Asked by: Frank 2
Hello, Unfortunately, the Home 550 was not designed to be used as a center channel. The Home 550 is a powered Soundbar. Powered Soundbars are designed to be used instead of an AV receiver. Their purpose is to save space and offer an upgrade in sound over the speaker built into a flat panel TV. For your center channel you will need a passive speaker labeled as a center channel.

How can i set HDMI as default input? I have to switch manually every time i turn on the soundbar.

Asked by: soundy
Hello, If your TV and other connected devices have the CEC (HDMI Control) feature, you will want it activated to be able to talk with the Home 550 Soundbar. CEC often has a different name with certain brands. The user manual of each component should have these details.

My Fire TV is connected to my Denon 550. When i press the home button on Fire TV remote the soundbar turns on automatically. How can i disable this CEC wakeup? The soundbar should only turn on with the original remote and otherwise just passthrough

Asked by: soundy
Hello, I suggest Launching FireTV. From there, try following this sequence: Home > Settings (cog) > Equipment Control > Off. If this doesn't get your FireTV to do what you want it to (not) do, the other option is to connect your Fire TV directly to your TV.

Does the power cord on the soundbar 550 have auto-switching for voltage?

Asked by: eldandy
Hello, The Home 550 Soundbar is 120V only when purchased in North America. If you require the 240V version, it is recommended to purchase the Home 550 in the country in which it's use is intended. The manufacturer's warranty is only valid when it is bought in the country where it will be used.
