Nuvo works fine. I did not find the P3100 buggy. Updates are easier than sonos.
Not in love with the new sonos App. The Nuvo is now better.
I wonder about the long term for the HEOS setup. This would be great if the support and product updates are good. Too bad Matt is gone.
I may be schizophrenic, but at least I have each other.

Looks promising. Wonder if it sounds better than SONOS?

Be sure it's not. It's Denon...

i agree the new app BLOWS, im getting used to it but its still horrible and has a much steeper learning curve.

Im going to spend alot of time with HEOS it at the booth this year, really would like to see this grow into something as a viable competitor to sonos

Wondering if this is finally the rehash of Escient? Remember D&M bought them with the thoughts of consolidating it into the core brands; Denon, Marantz, and McIntosh at the time....

Don't worry, I'm still here. I just get to watch from the sidelines. Oops, I meant a beach! ;)

I heard some samples of these today. They sounded really good. The phone controller does some cool things with grouping zones or playing back music from someone else's phone that's on the same network (music sharing).

Snappy response, easy setup.

I agree. I've had a unit at a job just while we install and as a test source and haven't had any issues. Seems rock solid and app is very easy to use. The update allowing you to stream from the phone library while within the Nuvo app.

all that said, HEOS looks sweet! Very excited about it. 
do wino hue?

I just saw that Samsung is getting into this market as well. I imagine it will be a consumer-level thing like their crappy soundbars, though.

has anyone downloaded the app to see how it looks? they have a demo mode that lets you run the app through its paces. looks very nice. zone grouping is very cool. drag and drop to group and ungroup.
I love supporting product that supports me!
