Denon Home 150 NV stays focussed on stunning sound [Video]

Voice assistants can be useful, time-saving additions to a piece of technology, but not everyone wants or needs them. So why does it feel like they’re present in almost every wireless speaker on the market? If you want great audio quality but feel uncomfortable at the idea of a robot listening in on your every conversation, or already have voice assistant technology in other devices, the Denon Home 150 NV wants to have a word with you. Not literally, of course.

Built around the very same best-in-class audio tech as Denon’s Home 150 but with the microphone and access to voice assistants Alexa and Siri removed, the Home 150 NV is a compact wireless speaker that delivers a virtuoso routine – either as a solo performer or as part of a multi-room system.
