While we're more than familiar with Denon's impressive range of home cinema amplifiers, it should also be known that the company makes a range of soundbars too. The latest addition to its lineup is the DHT-S218, a soundbar that's set to strike the balance between affordability, convenience and sound performance.
The S218 is set to include a myriad of useful features, starting with its wired connectivity spec. As expected, it includes HDMI eARC for connecting to your TV, but it also features an HDMI passthrough connection that supports 4K and Dolby Vision HDR. The Sonos Arc, which happens to cost over three times this Denon, does without that feature, so we're already impressed. There are also connectors for optical audio, analogue and a subwoofer output. You'll also be able to pair your phone, tablet or laptop to this soundbar wirelessly via Bluetooth, and the LE (low energy) codec is supported too.
