For any room with passive speakers and no amplifier yet, the Amp HS2 is the most direct route into the HEOS multiroom system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the HEOS Amp HS2?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it does the job of two devices in one: amplifier and network player. 2×100 watts at 6 ohms drives a wide range of passive bookshelf or floorstanding speakers, while HEOS Built-in brings streaming services, internet radio and music from your own server to the living room, the wine cellar or the workshop. A subwoofer output rounds off the system at the bottom end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you already have a HEOS Link HS2 or a HEOS Home device in the house, simply add the Amp HS2 to the group – in sync across several rooms, or with its own music per zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear and get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-res playback up to 24-bit\/192kHz (WAV, FLAC, ALAC) and DSD up to 5.6MHz, plus AirPlay 2, Bluetooth and voice control via Alexa, Google Assistant or Siri. Internet radio and local network files run completely without a paid subscription – streaming services remain an option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the HEOS Amp HS2 for? (and who isn't it for)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for second and third rooms, kitchen, office or garage, where passive speakers should be set up without a large integrated amplifier taking up space. \u003cstrong\u003eStraight talk:\u003c\/strong\u003e for a demanding main living room with high power needs or a preference for tube sound, a dedicated integrated amplifier is usually the more honest choice – the Amp HS2 plays to its strengths where compactness and multiroom integration matter, not as an audiophile flagship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HEOS Amp HS2 is the pragmatic all-rounder for the second and third room: connect the speakers, connect the network, and the music plays – with the same controls everywhere as in the main room. Anyone building a HEOS system will find the most straightforward building block for it here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the trade press says:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"The Heos Amp HS2 is the perfect complement to the active speakers in the series.

The built-in power amp delivers 2×100 watts at 6 ohms and drives passive bookshelf or floorstanding speakers between 4 and 16 ohms directly via the speaker terminals – no additional amplifier or separate power amp is needed for this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the HEOS Amp HS2 have a headphone output?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, the unit has no headphone output. It's consistently designed as an amplifier for passive speakers, not for direct headphone use – anyone wanting to connect headphones needs a separate device with its own headphone output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I connect a subwoofer?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, an active subwoofer can be added via the RCA subwoofer output – handy if the connected speakers could use some bass support, for example in a larger room or with compact bookshelf speakers with limited depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the HEOS Amp HS2 work without a streaming subscription?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Internet radio, USB sticks and music from your own network server play completely without a subscription, once the unit is set up. Tidal, Qobuz or Spotify are a welcome option, but not a requirement for everyday operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the HEOS Amp HS2 differ from the HEOS Link HS2?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Amp HS2 has a built-in power amp and speaker terminals, the Link HS2 doesn't – it's a pure preamp for an amplifier you already own. If you don't have your own amplifier yet, go for the Amp HS2; if you already have a good one, go for the Link HS2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy buy the Denon HEOS Amp HS2 at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause a multiroom system is only as good as its planning: which speakers suit 6 ohms, how many zones make sense, how do you set it all up together via the app?
