About this deal

The 29 mm ultra light-weight soft dome tweeter integrates seamlessly with the 7” wood fibre (SMC based) woofer for impressive highs, detailed and crisp mids and a surprising coherent and well-timed bass. This is because technology in the AV marketplace moves fast, and as a result the value of items decrease very quickly.

While the profusion of settings might seem a little overwhelming if you go for a browse, we were impressed that the defaults were all sensibly chosen, so that anyone simply turning on and playing will get pretty much as good as the Denon can give. Connect other audio components such as a turntable through the RCA input or upgrade your TV sound with the optical connection, for enhanced shows, movies and games. For some, sparse tracks with well isolated notes and vocals it can sound lovely, but it becomes a bit incoherent where there's more going on. This has a left-right balance control, plus EQ offering treble and bass sliders, and a ‘Super Dynamic Bass’ option, which certainly thumps up the low end, at the expense of a slight softening of higher frequencies; this was too much for us with internet radio, indeed it’s a sign of good sonic design that we spent nearly all of our CEOL listening with the ‘Source Direct’ option engaged, thereby hopefully getting the cleanest path to music.

CREATE YOUR OWN TV SOUND SYSTEM - Why not enjoy the great sound of the CEOL N11DAB Mini HiFi System with your TV? But those with silver to spin can be assured that this source was a highlight in terms of clarity and dynamics. QualiFi strongly advises EXTREME CAUTION regarding the purchase of any of our brands from an unauthorised source. Later, as CD players replaced turntables, these midi systems shrank down into mini systems and ultimately micro systems (and even, for a while, micro separates), until the whole all-in-one genre was eventually supplanted by the one-box wireless music systems of today. This Gaelic derivation has been confirmed to us (off-the-record, apparently), so this also affects how you should say the word, since its pronunciation is less like ‘seal’ and more like ‘ki-yol’, rhyming with ‘doll’.

If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. With electric bass the CEOL could drop all the way to the bottom E, and the sonic booms of Aimee Mann’s Nobody Does It Better were pleasingly expansive, the throbbing bass of this track was brought to the fore even without any of the EQ options engaged. The new rounded front grille adds a lighter and more contemporary visual look to the speaker series. This is important as you are rarely seated directly in front of your loudspeakers when listening to music. Together with the remote control and the pair of 2-way compact loudspeakers Denon SC-N10, the set costs around 630 Euros and should be available from August 2020*.The woofer has been optimised with a new wood fibre structured cone which is dedicated to reproduce the delicate midrange and bass frequency area - like every other driver made by DALI. With HEOS Built-in, multi-room applications and access to all major streaming services are included, while support for Alexa and Google Assistant also allows voice control. CEOL RCD-N11DAB is fast and intuitive to set up, taking just minutes from unboxing to filling your home with beautiful music. Works with the Google Assistant’ feature is always improving — further enhancements added via future firmware updates. To use Spotify, the HEOS app simply opens your normal Spotify app, and you select the Denon as the playback device.

On a side note I did try the Denon SCN10 speakers that are bundled with the CEOL, but found them boomy and this added to the general incoherence of some music, though I felt they had potential if they could be positioned well away from a wall.

Following the previous N9 and N10 models, the latest generation of the versatile, complete system is now available: the Denon CEOL-N11DAB extends the range of functions of its predecessor to include DAB+/DAB radio reception. To that last you can attach a stick or USB drive for playback of music files in compressed WMA, AAC or MP3 format, or in uncompressed FLAC, Apple Lossless or WAV format up to 192kHz, and double-DSD (2. The Denon CEOL RCD-N11 is a Network CD Receiver that combines exceptional sound quality with stylish, minimalist design. Denon introduces its newest lifestyle-oriented network music player, the CEOL N11 DAB which, as its Irish tinged name suggests, increases its musical versatility by adding DAB+/DAB radio. The OBERON 3 cabinet employs a very rigid construction, with solid bracings across the inside of the cabinet for reinforcement.
