How do I connect my Denon receiver to Google Home ?
Please connect your Marantz/HEOS system and your Google Home device(s) to the same network. Your Marantz/HEOS system should also have the most recent updates for its software and firmware.
1.Get the HEOS app, make a HEOS account, and install your HEOS devices by following the instructions.
2. Go to Settings > My Devices in the HEOS app. Give each device a unique name and try out what works best.
