Denon DNP-720AE Network Audio Player with AirPlay

Denon has got more than just Airplay enabled AV receivers in their arsenal, including the DNP-720AE Network Audio Player that is now available with a free AirPlay upgrade (until 31st December).

This networked audio player for Denon is made to work with other Denon products, although it will work with any other amp as well, but will come to best use when stacked together with sibling products for that complete Denon visual look and audio performance. What you get with the Denon DNP-720-AE is the ability to pretty much stream from any wireless source, either through AirPlay or DLNA, Internet Radio, Napster, Last.fm etc. There is USB connection for wired iOS device compatibility or to play from USB stored audio files as well, and FM/AM radio for those that are still old school.

My main issue with the Denon DNP-720AE Network Audio Player is the price at around £429. Unless you already have a good quality amp or a stack of compatible Denon products, you might be better off getting an AirPlay enabled AV receiver, like the Denon AVR-1912 which is about the same price.
