Hegel has always set the benchmark for excellence in integrated amplifier design. Its latest creation, the H190v, continues this tradition with an evolution of the classic H190 amplifier. Aptly dubbed ‘More Music’, the H190v takes its best-selling product of all time to new heights, offering the perfect blend of power, refinement and versatility. Positioned at the heart of the integrated amplifier range, the H190v is designed to meet the needs of audiophiles looking for a no-compromise all-in-one solution.
Built with precision and minimalist elegance, the H190v is housed in a solid steel chassis with a thick aluminium front panel and aluminium knobs. Available in black and white, the amplifier is designed to blend in with any interior. However, beneath its minimalist appearance, the H190v is packed with advanced features.
Under the bonnet, the H190v packs a powerful punch. With 150W of Class AB power into 8 Ohms, a damping factor of 4000 and a large toroidal transformer combined with high-quality output transistors, this amplifier delivers power and precision in equal measure. A dedicated, enhanced power supply for the preamplifier and DAC section creates a pitch-black background that allows you to concentrate on the music, where every nuance is delivered with precision and control. The H190v offers a taste of high-end sophistication at a reasonable price.
Thanks to the integration of a state-of-the-art phono preamplifier in the H190v, users can connect MM cartridge turntables directly to the amplifier. The phono input is a scaled-down version of its acclaimed V10 phono preamplifier, offering a detailed, extended and powerful sound that brings any vinyl collection back to life.
For those who appreciate a personal listening experience, the H190v features a 6.3mm headphone output with a dedicated high-quality headphone amplifier. Capable of driving the most demanding headphones, this feature ensures that every nuance of your music is faithfully reproduced.
The inclusion of a comprehensive list of streaming options further enhances the amplifier’s versatility. With support for AirPlay, Spotify Connect, Roon Ready and DLNA/UPnP, the H190v transforms your space into a seamless music playback centre.
The H190v is highly customisable to suit any environment. The volume can be limited to match your preference for maximum volume. Thanks to the remote control function, you can program the amplifier to be controlled by common TV remote controls, eliminating the need for two remotes and allowing everyone in the family to enjoy quality TV sound. Most inputs can also be configured as a high-level fixed home theatre input, making it easy to combine the H190v with surround receivers or multi-room devices.
For more experienced users, the H190v also features IP control for smart home integration with brands such as Control4, Crestron and Savant. In addition, it offers a large number of fixed and variable inputs and outputs for connecting external devices, such as subwoofers, to provide a customisable audio experience.
Whether you’re a vinyl aficionado, a streaming enthusiast or someone who simply enjoys the immersive power of high-fidelity audio, the H190v is the perfect companion, offering an unrivalled listening experience that goes beyond expectations. The H190v is more than just an integrated amplifier, it’s a complete audio solution.
