Why You Can Trust CNET
Best AirPlay products
A list of CNET's Holiday Gift Guide picks for best AirPlay products.
Denon AVR-1912
Denon's AV receiver has built-in AirPlay, outstanding sound quality and six HDMI inputs--what more could you want? It's an excellent gift for the home theater enthusiast looking to upgrade the centerpiece of their home audio system.
Pioneer VSX-1021-K
If the Denon AVR-1912 isn't your style, the Pioneer VSX-1021-K is a great alternative. It also has built-in AirPlay, plus a bunch of unique iPhone and iPad apps you can use to control the receiver. The onscreen display is also one of the better ones we've seen.
Apple TV
If you're into AirPlay, the Apple TV is the product to get. It's the only AirPlay product we've seen that supports both audio and video, plus its $100 price make it one of the most affordable options available.
Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Air
This isn't a value pick, but the holidays are a time when you might be willing to splurge. The B&W Zeppelin Air is one of the better AirPlay-compatible speakers we've heard, with a truly unique design and solid sound quality.
