Music streaming, powered by HEOS
Streaming music via the AVC-X2850H is simple with the free HEOS app. This user-friendly app uses three main tabs that feature at all times - Rooms, Music and Now Playing.

The app also lets you group HEOS compatible devices such as soundbars and AV devices, for totally connected home audio.
HEOS – a complete ecosystem
The HEOS multiroom ecosystem lets you seamlessly configure up to 64 zones of sound – enough for even the largest mansions. Start with this AV amp and then build up a multiroom system to your exact requirements. With many hi-fi and home cinema amplifiers also featuring HEOS built in, it’s even easier to incorporate your entire home entertainment system into the HEOS family.
Stream your way – AirPlay 2, Roon Ready and Bluetooth
As well as the HEOS app, you can also choose to stream via other platforms. With AirPlay 2, this Denon AV amp makes an excellent choice for Apple users.

Use the supplied Audyssey measuring microphone and the system tunes the AV amp to provide the smoothest, most optimal overall listening experience for your room.

Delivering crisp and detailed sound from a highly discreet wall speaker, the Gallo Acoustics Profile 1 is ideal for quality audio in smaller spaces.
Low-profile design - ideal for discreet installation
Combining discreet style with high quality sound, the Gallo Acoustics Profile speakers are perfect for when you want top quality sound but without the large, intrusive speakers that go with it. With four different main speaker sizes, plus two centre speakers, the range covers all types of room sizes and installation requirements. For added bass, there’s even a ProfileSub.
Profile 1 – perfect for smaller rooms
As the smallest speaker in the Profile range, the Profile 1 is ideal for smaller rooms and areas where the most dynamic sound isn’t necessary. They work brilliantly as effect speakers within a home cinema speaker system or as music speakers in secondary rooms within a multiroom installation.
Detailed, top-end sound
As a two-way design, the Profile 1 features a dedicated tweeter. Unlike inferior single driver systems, this ensures a bright and crisp top-end response, right the way up to 20,000Hz. The tweeter is also the same as that used in the rest of the range, meaning that you get a smooth, consistent sound when you mix and match speakers from the Profile range in the same room.
Clear, articulate mid-range
Fitted with a woofer dedicated to mid-range and upper-bass, the Profile 1 effortlessly delivers the clear and fast-paced sound that Gallo Acoustics are renowned for. Although these speakers have limited bass, what bass there is, is responsive and spot-on the beat.
Choice of finish
For the best match with your installation, the Profile speakers are available in matte black or satin white finishes. The black fabric grilles are removable for driver replacement and a more technical appearance.

Profile 2.5 – centre speaker for smaller rooms

Crisp and clear dialogue
Using a classic centre speaker driver array, the Profile 2.5 produces a widespread sound that easily fills the space between the front speakers. The tweeter and compact woofer units deliver a crisp sound that helps vocals cut through background noise, making it easy to follow dialogue when the onscreen action hots up.

For a subwoofer that fits the trickiest spaces, check out the Gallo Acoustics ProfileSub.
Low profile subwoofer – perfect for the wall or under furniture
Far slimmer than most subwoofers, the ProfileSub simply fits where others don’t. A depth of just 180mm makes this subwoofer ideal for placing underneath furniture, in tight spaces or even on the wall. For the best fit, you can hang it in horizontal or vertical orientations.
Powerful bass response
When it comes to sound quality, the convenient shape doesn’t make the ProfileSub any less impressive. A dedicated 150 watt amplifier powers the 8 inch, long-throw woofer. When combined, they give the ProfileSub deep, powerful bass that reaches right down to 32Hz. Whether you’re looking for movie soundtrack rumble or expanded dynamics from your music, the ProfileSub delivers the power every bit as well as its ‘square’ rivals.
Comprehensive control – including fully adjustable phase
Adjustable level and crossover switches let you get the perfect sound match for your speakers and room. Phase is fully adjustable, meaning that wherever the subwoofer is placed in your room – in front, to the side or behind you – the bass is fully in sync with the rest of the music.
Easy access controls
Unlike many subwoofers, where the controls are awkward to access, the ProfileSub mounts them on the front panel for easy access. Once set, simply replace the grille to cover the switches.
The ideal match for Gallo Acoustic speakers
Although the ProfileSub is happy working with any satellite speakers, it’s designed to complement Gallo Acoustics’ entire range. From the classic Micro through to the Strada 2 Reference speakers, the ProfileSub works in perfect harmony.
Enjoy the bass, without the bulk, with the Gallo Acoustics ProfileSub.
