Is there a time frame for Deezer HIFI Heos support?
Pinned Reply By UGatDeezer

I am also happy that finally this got implemented after so many years!

 

Since today there is a HEOS update which integrates Deezer HiFi and Tidal Connect. First you need to update the HEOS App and afterwards run a firmware update to version 3.34.240. More here: https://support-uk.denon.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3832/~/latest-heos-app-and-firmware-update-available

I will test it the coming days …

Reporting to HEOS also sounds easy, but they do not have a forum like this one and my experience with feedback on issues reported via the Denon/Heos/Marantz Support websites is not the best, also not if you write reviews to their iOS apps. Answers are mostly very general, if any. Months after months nothing happens and that is really annoying, so how can we join forces to increase the pressure on them to get this out soon?

I propose to rename this thread to: Deezer HiFi for Denon HEOS and Denon / Marantz HEOS built-in devices

I have decided to start my 3 months free Amazon Music HD trial period today as the offer expires in 2 days. So far Amazon Music HD works fine with HEOS built-in and I really hear the difference! Following the Apple announcement of 3D Audio and HiRes audio quality starting in June without additional cost for subscribers, Amazon has directly reduced prices, so after the 3 months subscription for Amazon prime members would just be 7,99€/months. Together with the impossibility to get Deezer Hifi working on HEOS, I can get more for less which finally may bring my Deezer subscription to an end. You always highlighted it’s an HEOS App and not a Deezer issue but if you can‘t get it solved together very soon ….

I cannot add more other than pass your detailed and honest feedback @UGatDeezer you do have some many points.

Thank you for this and your overall support - I also changed the title of the topic following your suggestion :thumbsup_tone2:

Hey @dmiha 

Thanks for sharing that with us here. It could be that the information their support team has is out-of-date or that their plans have changed and it's pushed back.

In any case, I'll be following this up with our teams here and sharing the screenshot you provided with them - have a nice weekend :relaxed:

Thanks @Rudi 

I sincerely hope that their support is misinformed and that we will get Deezer HiFi through HEOS soon... :wink: this is actually their second answer because I got pissed of by their first “automatic” answer with links to some rather irrelevant things that I did not ask so I reopened the case and then got this.

Have a nice weekend too.. :relaxed:

Is there a time frame for Deezer HIFI Heos support?

Yes - until hell freezes over… Forget it, Deezer Hifi will never come to HeOS. I currently use NAD C658 with BluOS together with my Denon X4400H AVR to have Deezer HIFI in my living room. My next AVR will be a Yamaha (RX-A6A is on my mind). I’m done with Denon!

Hey @Rudi,  it would be really appreciated if you can update us if/when your teams get a response from the HEOS engineering team, mainly so we can make decisions regarding ditching HEOS kit, or holding on for a little bit as the feature is coming… 

 

Many thanks in advance, and thanks for pursuing this!
