It could have been so beautiful: a powerful Denon, with Spotify Connekt, supplied speakers for only €400. Nice set, easy to use too.
Unfortunately, it didn't work out at all at my house. The speakers were only moderate. Sound was quite flat and thin. Have also listened to the N9 amplifier with a set of Dali Zensor 1s and that really makes a world of difference. So it's not the amplifier.
The biggest problem for me, however, was the connection to the network. I live in Amsterdam where the WiFi reception is often disrupted. My scanty Ziggo modem doesn't help either. However, all my other devices are working fine. Not the Denon. Every now and then the connection drops, without indicating what is going on. Even with a wired connection to the router, the functionality was unstable (!).
What remained was a fine FM radio. Not what I was looking for. Fortunately, I was able to exchange the set without any hassle. Top service again! I would only recommend this set if you replace the speakers and connect the amplifier to the router with a UTP cable.

Positively surprised by the many possibilities of the Ceol N9. There is no format and connection that cannot be done; the lack of HDMI is not a problem.
In use, the connection to the internet is crucial. I myself have quite a bit of trouble with a faltering / slow responding Airplay. Yesterday I couldn't even turn on the device through the app. Unplug it and it worked again.
I have the version with accompanying speakers from Denon. Although these are very cheap speakers, the sound is fine. Nice and full. Lots of power. I'm curious how it sounds with a set of quality speakers.

The best purchase I could have made. This stereo set is multifunctional, it plays CD, Bluetooth, internet radio (!), Spotify Connect and can be connected to a TV. It is easy to install and easy to control. The only downside I can think of is that the speakers are wired. That doesn't matter to me, but if you want to place the boxes further apart, that can be inconvenient. If you are looking for a stereo set with a good price-quality ratio and clear control, then this stereo set is definitely for you!
