I have other collectables & watches- Network Gear -Audio Video Equipment I remember my first experience of a Hegel Music Systems component. It was seven years ago, at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest. I’d never heard of the Norwegian outfit before curiously wandering into their exhibition room, but I left mightily impressed by what I’d heard: Hegel’s entry-level H70 integrated amplifier ($2000 USD) was driving a pair of power-hungry Bowers & Wilkins 802 Diamond speakers ($15,000 pair) to uncomfortably loud SPLs and making sweet, sweet music.Impressive as that demo was, I was even more impressed by the fact that the H70 included an internal digital-to-analog converter. In those days, audiophile integrateds simply didn’t come with onboard DACs; that Hegel had seen fit to include one now seems prescient, given how common computer- and server-based music systems have become. Seven years later, Hegel still leads the charge of DAC-enabled integrated amps. But the company has departed from its practice of numerical model names by releasing a $3000 integrated called, simply, Röst.DescriptionAccording to Hegel, Röst means voice; it’s also the name of “one of the most beautiful islands in Norway.” But it’s not only the name that’s new: A smooth, bone-white finish replaces Hegel’s usual black; the blue segment display has given way to invitingly soft-white OLED characters; and networking capabilities, courtesy UPnP/DLNA or AirPlay, are included along with the internal DAC. The Röst also comes preloaded with Control4 drivers, for integration with a home automation system. As far as I’m aware, this alone makes the Röst unique among perfectionist two-channel integrated amps. Add in a good dose of familiar design touches -- a gently curved faceplate, a milled-from-solid-aluminum remote-control handset and control knobs -- and the Röst is a formidable combination of the new and tried-and-true Hegel elements.What’s not new is Hegel’s unwavering emphasis on sound quality. The Röst includes the company’s SoundEngine2 technology, a patented error-correction circuit designed to eliminate signal nonlinearities in an amplifier’s gain stages. A cursory examination of Hegel’s patent reveals several simple yet cleverly designed circuit configurations that make this technology possible. One example shows a series of cascaded gain stages in which each stage feeds only the nonlinear portion of the music signal to a threshold sensor and adder circuit loop, instead of a traditional localized feedback circuit. Thus, error correction is activated only when nonlinearities are present in the signal; otherwise, the circuit behaves like a conventionally configured, multistage gain network with only small amounts of local feedback. The circuit is therefore claimed to offer the advantages of traditional feedback circuits and none of their drawbacks, and to result in a damping factor of greater than 2000, high signal linearity, and vanishingly low distortion. Clever. Though the Röst’s power output is specified as a modest 75Wpc into 8 ohms, it’s capable of driving 2-ohm loads, and the high damping factor should result in iron-fisted control of any speaker’s bass bin.The inputs on the rear panel comprise: two pairs of single-ended (RCA) and one pair of balanced (XLR), analog; one coaxial (RCA), three optical (S/PDIF), and one network (RJ45), all able to receive digital signals of resolutions up through 24-bit/192kHz; and one 24/96 digital (USB). There are also a pair of variable line-level outputs (RCA), two high-quality speaker terminals, an IEC power inlet, and a main power rocker switch.Even with its unique blend of features, the Röst was a cinch to set up. It comes preloaded with USB drivers for Apple and Android devices -- on my MacBook Pro, I was able to select the Hegel as an audio output device straight out of the box. The Röst also picked up AirPlay signals from my iPhone 5S smartphone without requiring any setup on my part.SoundI gave the Röst sufficient run-in before spinning one of my go-to discs, Joe Henderson’s Lush Life: The Music of Billy Strayhorn (SACD/CD, Verve B000138136). The Röst quickly endeared itself to me for what it didn’t do, which was not call undue attention to itself. This is a good thing: I’ve often found that the most impressive hi-fi gear doesn’t smack you over the head with sonic fireworks, but instead slowly draws you into its sound. And so it went with the unassumingly small (16.93”W x 3.15”H x 12.20”D) but hefty (around 20 pounds) Hegel Röst: It made it easy for me to listen into the music first, and simply enjoy its communicative, nonfatiguing way with sound.Then, listening even deeper, I could hear that the Röst kept excellent time, with fine pacing and temporal precision. With Strayhorn’s “U.M.M.G. (Upper Manhattan Medical Group),” for example, the rhythm section sounded in sync and well organized, and the Hegel delivered the tune’s rhythmic complexities with poise and clarity. Ditto “Drawing Room Blues.” Through the Röst, it was easy to hear how the interplay of Stephen Scott’s piano and Christian McBride’s double bass gently swung the tune with toe-tapping verve and good note-to-note flow, even with no drummer keeping time.Though good rhythm’n’pace aren’t terribly rare qualities in audiophile solid-state amps, good tone sometimes is. Thankfully, the Röst had fine tonality, as revealed by Beck’s Sea Change (SACD/CD, Geffen 493537). Play this album through the wrong amp and Beck’s voice can sound muddy, mumbled, or indistinct. Not through the Röst -- it brought out all the texture, timbre, and nuance of Beck’s complex singing, putting it front and center in the mix with realistic presence and solidity. In “Paper Tiger,” listen to how he subtly shifts from a steady, resonant baritone to, toward the end of the song, a more delicate voice with heavy vocal fry. The Röst reproduced this with a level of musical expressiveness that kept me rapt and compelled me to listen through to the end.The Hegel’s midrange was just as good sonically as it was musically. In “Where Seagulls Fly,” from Noah Preminger’s Dry Bridge Road (CD, Nowt 002), Preminger’s tenor sax sounded distinctly clean and rounded without losing any of its bracing clarity. And the opening passage for solo bassoon in Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring, in the recording by Esa-Pekka Salonen and the Los Angeles Philharmonic (SACD/CD, Deutsche Grammophon 002894776198), sounded smooth, fluid, and appropriately reedy. Through the Röst, horns, woodwinds, and all manner of midrange instruments sounded open, clear, and transparent, yet wholly natural and devoid of any fatiguing hardness, grain, or glare.That clean, transparent quality extended into the lower reaches as well, where the Röst could really pack a wallop when asked to. In The Rite of Spring, bombastic timpani strokes thundered throughout my listening room with explosive power, depth, and visceral impact. And with electronic bass -- as in Massive Attack’s “Man Next Door” and “Black Milk,” from Mezzanine (16-bit/44.1kHz WAV, Virgin) -- the Röst was weighty, punchy, and articulate, delivering ostinato lines on both synth and guitar bass with appropriate amounts of purr. Regardless of musical genre, partnering speaker, or volume level, the Röst produced some of the best bass I’ve experienced from a reasonably priced amplifier.So perhaps it should come as no surprise that grand, sweeping, highly dynamic music, such as Messiaen’s Turangalîla-Symphonie as performed by pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Takashi Harada on Ondes Martenot, and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra led by Riccardo Chailly (16/44.1 WAV, Decca), sounded thrilling and highly dramatic, thanks largely to the Hegel’s seemingly limitless and virtually bottomless bass.The treble wasn’t far behind. There was a natural, unhyped rightness to the way the Röst did the highs, even if they did seem a touch emphasized. With Dry Bridge Road and “Lost Cause,” from Beck’s Sea Change, cymbals stood out from the mix more than usual but still sparkled with pellucid, crystalline extension. However, this was so well integrated with the rest of the audioband that I can’t imagine anyone quibbling about it: It was seldom noticeable, and never off-putting. Pressed, I’d say that it even added some airiness to the highs, and spaciousness to the imaging and soundstaging.Speaking of imaging and soundstaging, the Röst acquitted itself admirably in those regards with the Turangalîla-Symphonie, conveying a good dose of the Royal Concertgebouw concert hall’s scale and warmth. Musicians were well distributed across a wide soundstage, even if that stage didn’t seem quite as deep or as cavernous as might be expected. Nevertheless, soloists and the various orchestral sections were cleanly and distinctly rendered in space, with good presence and solidity. The Hegel did, however, excel at reproducing smaller-scale images, such as Thibaudet’s piano solo in Developpement de l’Amour, in which the outlines of instruments had a convincing sharpness and three-dimensionality.Note that all music files referenced thus far were played through my MacBook Pro feeding the Röst’s internal DAC section, as I never felt compelled to switch to my own DAC. In fact, the more I listened, the more I realized that the Röst’s DAC was just as open, clear, and refined as its amp section, and endowed with the same natural musicality and temporal precision. When I focused on “Nord Perdu,” from Alexandre Côté’s Portraits d’Ici (24/96 FLAC, Effendi), snare-drum strokes snapped with clean attack and transients, while the cacophony of cymbal and hi-hat strokes shimmered with textural detail and sufficient decay. Though the Röst’s overall character might be described as ever so slightly dry in absolute terms, it never sounded cardboardy or one-dimensional. It’s often easy for a DAC that sounds this clean and clear to also sound threadbare or etched, but the Röst’s level of smoothness was counterbalanced by its incisiveness.ComparisonI was now ready to compare the Röst with my reference integrated amplifier, Audio Note’s Level 3 EL84 (est. $6000). On the surface, the comparison may seem unfair: My sample of the tubed Level 3 features a whole slew of exceptional upgrades, including silver internal wiring, a resistive stepped attenuator, C-core transformers, and more boutique parts than I can shake a stick at -- all of which brings its retail price to well over twice the Röst’s. Still, I felt I was familiar enough with the sound of both amps to make meaningful and conclusive comparisons. Since the Audio Note has no internal DAC, I compared the Röst’s DAC section with my outboard unit, Arcam’s irDAC-II ($799), which, similar to the Röst, offers multiple input options and AirPlay connectivity.Comparing the DACs was an ear opener -- it was easy to hear the differences. On its own, the Arcam sounds warm, rich, and highly listenable, even with poor-sounding or low-resolution files. When I listened to those same files through the Röst, however, it became apparent that the Arcam achieves its listenability by subduing the upper mids and lower treble. When both DACs were fed good-sounding hi-rez files, such as the Côté album, the Röst was the undisputed winner. Its sound was more fleshed out through the upper midrange and lower treble, with more realistic texture and presence to horns, pianos, strings, or anything with a strong midrange presence. Through the Arcam, Côté’s alto sax sounded muted and lacked bite, while John Roney’s piano was mildly recessed and closed in, making the music seem slightly congested and laid-back. With the Hegel, those instruments were more open and transparent. The Röst also reproduced cymbals and hi-hats with more nuanced microdynamics, sharper attacks, and clearer transients; those transients’ leading edges also shimmered with more detail, articulation, and definition.The Hegel did a better job of lining up beats and rhythmic accents in time, propelling the music with more insistence and force; the Arcam seemed less energetic, even mildly sluggish in comparison. “One Dance,” from Drake’s Views (WAV, Universal), made the Röst’s more groove-friendly rhythm’n’pace apparent, as did Majid Jordan’s A Place Like This (16/44.1 WAV, OVO Sound) -- the pulsing bass line of the dance-friendly “Forever” hit with greater tautness and control. The Hegel Röst made upbeat music sound more so, in the process uncorking more dance vibes.When I compare the Röst’s amp section against the mighty Audio Note Level 3 EL84, the differences were smaller across the board but were most notable in a few respects. With Harry Connick Jr.’s We Are In Love(SACD/CD, Columbia CS 46146), the Hegel sounded more reticent and a bit thin through the upper bass and lower midrange. In “Just a Boy,” Connick’s voice sounded smaller, with less warmth and solidity. Textural details, such as his root bass note “hum” near the end of the tune, didn’t resonate with the same power and presence as through the tubed Audio Note, which made this hum sound more tonally rich and convincing. But unless I specifically listened for it, I noticed this thinness and lack of warmth only in direct comparisons and at high volumes; in daily use, it was fairly innocuous.Comparative listening also highlighted how the Hegel Röst couldn’t match the Audio Note in fluidity and palpable presence. Through the tubed amp, harmonically rich and complex instruments, such as John Roney’s piano, or Bobby Hutcherson’s vibraphone on Eric Dolphy’s “Out to Lunch (LP, Blue Note/Music Matters MMBST-84163), sounded organically smooth, liquid, and whole, with full harmonic development and believable attack, sustain, and decay. The Hegel’s harmonic envelope seemed smaller in comparison, particularly in terms of sustain and decay, which resulted in a mildly coarser sound. But again, this was audible only in a head-to-head comparison with the twice-the-price Audio Note; the Hegel outdid many other good solid-state amps in listenability, tone, and texture.The Hegel’s dynamic range swung from pianissimo to fortissimo as quickly and effortlessly as the music required, and in this regard it bettered the Audio Note when paired with speakers of average sensitivity. The Röst’s fantastic bass also helped with macrodynamic power by making the thunderous timpani rolls in Mussorgsky’s Night on the Bare Mountain (also on the Rite of Spring disc) sound deeper, tauter, and more impactful than through the Audio Note. The Röst wasn’t quite as deft as the Level 3 in microdynamics, slightly smoothing over pianist Roney’s smaller-scale crescendos and decrescendos in his quieter passages in “Nord Perdu.”Even with the unfair comparison, the Hegel Röst’s sound was very satisfying. Its DAC section unquestionably bettered the very good irDAC-II in nearly every respect, and its amplifier more than held its own against much more expensive competition. Of course, the Audio Note Level 3 EL84 is undeniably better -- even in its own price range, few amps can match its fluid and nearly tangible sound, let alone its sheer musicality. But the Hegel Röst compared favorably with it in many respects, and even eclipsed the Level 3 in bass quality and macrodynamics. Given its seemingly limitless damping factor and low-end control, I doubt that the Röst would be anything but stellar with insensitive or current-hungry speakers. Considering the Hegel Röst as a versatile, digital-friendly, one-box integrated amplifier, it’s hard not to think of it as the winner in this comparison.ConclusionOverall, I quite enjoyed my time with the Hegel Music Systems Röst. Few reasonably priced, solid-state integrated amplifiers keep my interest for long, but the Röst delivered clear, clean, cohesive musical experiences that made it effortless to listen to it for hours on end. What’s more, its temporal precision, powerful and authoritative bass, and macrodynamic capabilities make it a class leader in these areas.Add in that fantastic DAC and you’ve got a thoroughly modern and modern-sounding amplifier that performs impressively with every genre of music, and any kind of source you’d care to play through it. Amps with built-in DACs are becoming ever more popular, and Hegel was one of the first to do it -- which shows in the level of sound quality, user-friendliness, and ergonomic refinement built into the Röst. If you think you might like to explore versatile source connectivity and networking capabilities without compromising your system’s sound, the Hegel Röst should be at the top of your audition list.

The Röst wasn’t quite as deft as the Level 3 in microdynamics, slightly smoothing over pianist Roney’s smaller-scale crescendos and decrescendos in his quieter passages in “Nord Perdu.”Even with the unfair comparison, the Hegel Röst’s sound was very satisfying. Its DAC section unquestionably bettered the very good irDAC-II in nearly every respect, and its amplifier more than held its own against much more expensive competition. Of course, the Audio Note Level 3 EL84 is undeniably better -- even in its own price range, few amps can match its fluid and nearly tangible sound, let alone its sheer musicality. But the Hegel Röst compared favorably with it in many respects, and even eclipsed the Level 3 in bass quality and macrodynamics. Given its seemingly limitless damping factor and low-end control, I doubt that the Röst would be anything but stellar with insensitive or current-hungry speakers. Considering the Hegel Röst as a versatile, digital-friendly, one-box integrated amplifier, it’s hard not to think of it as the winner in this comparison.ConclusionOverall, I quite enjoyed my time with the Hegel Music Systems Röst. Few reasonably priced, solid-state integrated amplifiers keep my interest for long, but the Röst delivered clear, clean, cohesive musical experiences that made it effortless to listen to it for hours on end. What’s more, its temporal precision, powerful and authoritative bass, and macrodynamic capabilities make it a class leader in these areas.Add in that fantastic DAC and you’ve got a thoroughly modern and modern-sounding amplifier that performs impressively with every genre of music, and any kind of source you’d care to play through it. Amps with built-in DACs are becoming ever more popular, and Hegel was one of the first to do it -- which shows in the level of sound quality, user-friendliness, and ergonomic refinement built into the Röst. If you think you might like to explore versatile source connectivity and networking capabilities without compromising your system’s sound, the Hegel Röst should be at the top of your audition list.

Hegel P30 silver in excellent condition with original package remoter manual power cable. The only issue is that the front panel LEDs has low brightness.This reference Hegel P30 preamplifier looks and sounds fantastic! EU Version 220-240VThe P30 is the best preamplifier ever developed by Hegel. With its patented technology and hand-matched components, the P30 is a confident contender in the race towards being the best pre amplifier in the world. Regardless of price. Despite what many hi-fi enthusiasts believe, pre amplifiers are actually one of the most difficult audio components to develop. At the same time, it is one of the most important components in a well sounding system.Hegel P30The reason is that the signal strength is very low when entering the pre amplifier, and is therefore very susceptible to high-frequency noise and distortion elements. The most critical phase in the pre amplifier is the volume regulation, and in the P30 this is a masterpiece in itself. The physical volume control knob is only used to describe the desired volume output level to the array of Gigahertz MOS-transistors. These direct the music signal through a network of high-quality resistors that reduce the signal level.After the volume control circuit, the signal is directed through the amplification circuit. For the first time ever we are using the patented SoundEngine technology in the pre amplifier. Combined with Hegel’s use of hand-matched FET transistors, this results in unsurpassed levels of musical distortion and noise. In total, the music signal will only pass through 2 transistors and between 1 to 3 resistors on its way through the P30. The sound you hear from the P30 can only be described as organic and very natural. To quote a journalist: “The Hegel sounds so much more natural than my previous reference. And it does so without flashing itself with gold and diamonds”.The Hegel P30 has 2 pairs of balanced inputs (XLR) and 3 regular unbalanced (RCA). In addition to this, it has a Home Theatre input that allows you to integrate it into a Home Theatre system. The P30 also has a 3,5 mm IR-direct input and a 12V trigger output connector. The Hegel P30 is available in both silver and black finish, so it can be matched with both the H30 and H20 power amplifiers.Technical SpecificationsRemote control: Volume, source and mute controlled by Hegel RC2Inputs: 2 x XLR balanced, 3 x RCA unbalanced and Home Theatre inputsOutputs: 1 x XLR balanced and 2 x RCA unbalanced outputsOther connections: 3,5mm IR-direct jack, 3,5 mm jack 12V trigger outputSignal to noise ratio: More than 130 dB balanced modeCrosstalk: Less than -100 dBDistortion: Less than 0.005 %Intermodulation: Less than 0.01% (19kHz+20kHz)Finish: SilverDimensions/weight: 8cm x 43cm x 30cm (HxWxD), 10kgDimensions/weight US: 3,2? x 17? x 12?

I have other collectables & watches- Network Gear -Audio Video Equipment I remember my first experience of a Hegel Music Systems component. It was seven years ago, at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest. I’d never heard of the Norwegian outfit before curiously wandering into their exhibition room, but I left mightily impressed by what I’d heard: Hegel’s entry-level H70 integrated amplifier ($2000 USD) was driving a pair of power-hungry Bowers & Wilkins 802 Diamond speakers ($15,000 pair) to uncomfortably loud SPLs and making sweet, sweet music.Impressive as that demo was, I was even more impressed by the fact that the H70 included an internal digital-to-analog converter. In those days, audiophile integrateds simply didn’t come with onboard DACs; that Hegel had seen fit to include one now seems prescient, given how common computer- and server-based music systems have become. Seven years later, Hegel still leads the charge of DAC-enabled integrated amps. But the company has departed from its practice of numerical model names by releasing a $3000 integrated called, simply, Röst.DescriptionAccording to Hegel, Röst means voice; it’s also the name of “one of the most beautiful islands in Norway.” But it’s not only the name that’s new: A smooth, bone-white finish replaces Hegel’s usual black; the blue segment display has given way to invitingly soft-white OLED characters; and networking capabilities, courtesy UPnP/DLNA or AirPlay, are included along with the internal DAC. The Röst also comes preloaded with Control4 drivers, for integration with a home automation system. As far as I’m aware, this alone makes the Röst unique among perfectionist two-channel integrated amps. Add in a good dose of familiar design touches -- a gently curved faceplate, a milled-from-solid-aluminum remote-control handset and control knobs -- and the Röst is a formidable combination of the new and tried-and-true Hegel elements.What’s not new is Hegel’s unwavering emphasis on sound quality. The Röst includes the company’s SoundEngine2 technology, a patented error-correction circuit designed to eliminate signal nonlinearities in an amplifier’s gain stages. A cursory examination of Hegel’s patent reveals several simple yet cleverly designed circuit configurations that make this technology possible. One example shows a series of cascaded gain stages in which each stage feeds only the nonlinear portion of the music signal to a threshold sensor and adder circuit loop, instead of a traditional localized feedback circuit. Thus, error correction is activated only when nonlinearities are present in the signal; otherwise, the circuit behaves like a conventionally configured, multistage gain network with only small amounts of local feedback. The circuit is therefore claimed to offer the advantages of traditional feedback circuits and none of their drawbacks, and to result in a damping factor of greater than 2000, high signal linearity, and vanishingly low distortion. Clever. Though the Röst’s power output is specified as a modest 75Wpc into 8 ohms, it’s capable of driving 2-ohm loads, and the high damping factor should result in iron-fisted control of any speaker’s bass bin.The inputs on the rear panel comprise: two pairs of single-ended (RCA) and one pair of balanced (XLR), analog; one coaxial (RCA), three optical (S/PDIF), and one network (RJ45), all able to receive digital signals of resolutions up through 24-bit/192kHz; and one 24/96 digital (USB). There are also a pair of variable line-level outputs (RCA), two high-quality speaker terminals, an IEC power inlet, and a main power rocker switch.Even with its unique blend of features, the Röst was a cinch to set up. It comes preloaded with USB drivers for Apple and Android devices -- on my MacBook Pro, I was able to select the Hegel as an audio output device straight out of the box. The Röst also picked up AirPlay signals from my iPhone 5S smartphone without requiring any setup on my part.SoundI gave the Röst sufficient run-in before spinning one of my go-to discs, Joe Henderson’s Lush Life: The Music of Billy Strayhorn (SACD/CD, Verve B000138136). The Röst quickly endeared itself to me for what it didn’t do, which was not call undue attention to itself. This is a good thing: I’ve often found that the most impressive hi-fi gear doesn’t smack you over the head with sonic fireworks, but instead slowly draws you into its sound. And so it went with the unassumingly small (16.93”W x 3.15”H x 12.20”D) but hefty (around 20 pounds) Hegel Röst: It made it easy for me to listen into the music first, and simply enjoy its communicative, nonfatiguing way with sound.Then, listening even deeper, I could hear that the Röst kept excellent time, with fine pacing and temporal precision. With Strayhorn’s “U.M.M.G. (Upper Manhattan Medical Group),” for example, the rhythm section sounded in sync and well organized, and the Hegel delivered the tune’s rhythmic complexities with poise and clarity. Ditto “Drawing Room Blues.” Through the Röst, it was easy to hear how the interplay of Stephen Scott’s piano and Christian McBride’s double bass gently swung the tune with toe-tapping verve and good note-to-note flow, even with no drummer keeping time.Though good rhythm’n’pace aren’t terribly rare qualities in audiophile solid-state amps, good tone sometimes is. Thankfully, the Röst had fine tonality, as revealed by Beck’s Sea Change (SACD/CD, Geffen 493537). Play this album through the wrong amp and Beck’s voice can sound muddy, mumbled, or indistinct. Not through the Röst -- it brought out all the texture, timbre, and nuance of Beck’s complex singing, putting it front and center in the mix with realistic presence and solidity. In “Paper Tiger,” listen to how he subtly shifts from a steady, resonant baritone to, toward the end of the song, a more delicate voice with heavy vocal fry. The Röst reproduced this with a level of musical expressiveness that kept me rapt and compelled me to listen through to the end.The Hegel’s midrange was just as good sonically as it was musically. In “Where Seagulls Fly,” from Noah Preminger’s Dry Bridge Road (CD, Nowt 002), Preminger’s tenor sax sounded distinctly clean and rounded without losing any of its bracing clarity. And the opening passage for solo bassoon in Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring, in the recording by Esa-Pekka Salonen and the Los Angeles Philharmonic (SACD/CD, Deutsche Grammophon 002894776198), sounded smooth, fluid, and appropriately reedy. Through the Röst, horns, woodwinds, and all manner of midrange instruments sounded open, clear, and transparent, yet wholly natural and devoid of any fatiguing hardness, grain, or glare.That clean, transparent quality extended into the lower reaches as well, where the Röst could really pack a wallop when asked to. In The Rite of Spring, bombastic timpani strokes thundered throughout my listening room with explosive power, depth, and visceral impact. And with electronic bass -- as in Massive Attack’s “Man Next Door” and “Black Milk,” from Mezzanine (16-bit/44.1kHz WAV, Virgin) -- the Röst was weighty, punchy, and articulate, delivering ostinato lines on both synth and guitar bass with appropriate amounts of purr. Regardless of musical genre, partnering speaker, or volume level, the Röst produced some of the best bass I’ve experienced from a reasonably priced amplifier.So perhaps it should come as no surprise that grand, sweeping, highly dynamic music, such as Messiaen’s Turangalîla-Symphonie as performed by pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Takashi Harada on Ondes Martenot, and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra led by Riccardo Chailly (16/44.1 WAV, Decca), sounded thrilling and highly dramatic, thanks largely to the Hegel’s seemingly limitless and virtually bottomless bass.The treble wasn’t far behind. There was a natural, unhyped rightness to the way the Röst did the highs, even if they did seem a touch emphasized. With Dry Bridge Road and “Lost Cause,” from Beck’s Sea Change, cymbals stood out from the mix more than usual but still sparkled with pellucid, crystalline extension. However, this was so well integrated with the rest of the audioband that I can’t imagine anyone quibbling about it: It was seldom noticeable, and never off-putting. Pressed, I’d say that it even added some airiness to the highs, and spaciousness to the imaging and soundstaging.Speaking of imaging and soundstaging, the Röst acquitted itself admirably in those regards with the Turangalîla-Symphonie, conveying a good dose of the Royal Concertgebouw concert hall’s scale and warmth. Musicians were well distributed across a wide soundstage, even if that stage didn’t seem quite as deep or as cavernous as might be expected. Nevertheless, soloists and the various orchestral sections were cleanly and distinctly rendered in space, with good presence and solidity. The Hegel did, however, excel at reproducing smaller-scale images, such as Thibaudet’s piano solo in Developpement de l’Amour, in which the outlines of instruments had a convincing sharpness and three-dimensionality.Note that all music files referenced thus far were played through my MacBook Pro feeding the Röst’s internal DAC section, as I never felt compelled to switch to my own DAC. In fact, the more I listened, the more I realized that the Röst’s DAC was just as open, clear, and refined as its amp section, and endowed with the same natural musicality and temporal precision. When I focused on “Nord Perdu,” from Alexandre Côté’s Portraits d’Ici (24/96 FLAC, Effendi), snare-drum strokes snapped with clean attack and transients, while the cacophony of cymbal and hi-hat strokes shimmered with textural detail and sufficient decay. Though the Röst’s overall character might be described as ever so slightly dry in absolute terms, it never sounded cardboardy or one-dimensional. It’s often easy for a DAC that sounds this clean and clear to also sound threadbare or etched, but the Röst’s level of smoothness was counterbalanced by its incisiveness.ComparisonI was now ready to compare the Röst with my reference integrated amplifier, Audio Note’s Level 3 EL84 (est. $6000). On the surface, the comparison may seem unfair: My sample of the tubed Level 3 features a whole slew of exceptional upgrades, including silver internal wiring, a resistive stepped attenuator, C-core transformers, and more boutique parts than I can shake a stick at -- all of which brings its retail price to well over twice the Röst’s. Still, I felt I was familiar enough with the sound of both amps to make meaningful and conclusive comparisons. Since the Audio Note has no internal DAC, I compared the Röst’s DAC section with my outboard unit, Arcam’s irDAC-II ($799), which, similar to the Röst, offers multiple input options and AirPlay connectivity.Comparing the DACs was an ear opener -- it was easy to hear the differences. On its own, the Arcam sounds warm, rich, and highly listenable, even with poor-sounding or low-resolution files. When I listened to those same files through the Röst, however, it became apparent that the Arcam achieves its listenability by subduing the upper mids and lower treble. When both DACs were fed good-sounding hi-rez files, such as the Côté album, the Röst was the undisputed winner. Its sound was more fleshed out through the upper midrange and lower treble, with more realistic texture and presence to horns, pianos, strings, or anything with a strong midrange presence. Through the Arcam, Côté’s alto sax sounded muted and lacked bite, while John Roney’s piano was mildly recessed and closed in, making the music seem slightly congested and laid-back. With the Hegel, those instruments were more open and transparent. The Röst also reproduced cymbals and hi-hats with more nuanced microdynamics, sharper attacks, and clearer transients; those transients’ leading edges also shimmered with more detail, articulation, and definition.The Hegel did a better job of lining up beats and rhythmic accents in time, propelling the music with more insistence and force; the Arcam seemed less energetic, even mildly sluggish in comparison. “One Dance,” from Drake’s Views (WAV, Universal), made the Röst’s more groove-friendly rhythm’n’pace apparent, as did Majid Jordan’s A Place Like This (16/44.1 WAV, OVO Sound) -- the pulsing bass line of the dance-friendly “Forever” hit with greater tautness and control. The Hegel Röst made upbeat music sound more so, in the process uncorking more dance vibes.When I compare the Röst’s amp section against the mighty Audio Note Level 3 EL84, the differences were smaller across the board but were most notable in a few respects. With Harry Connick Jr.’s We Are In Love(SACD/CD, Columbia CS 46146), the Hegel sounded more reticent and a bit thin through the upper bass and lower midrange. In “Just a Boy,” Connick’s voice sounded smaller, with less warmth and solidity. Textural details, such as his root bass note “hum” near the end of the tune, didn’t resonate with the same power and presence as through the tubed Audio Note, which made this hum sound more tonally rich and convincing. But unless I specifically listened for it, I noticed this thinness and lack of warmth only in direct comparisons and at high volumes; in daily use, it was fairly innocuous.Comparative listening also highlighted how the Hegel Röst couldn’t match the Audio Note in fluidity and palpable presence. Through the tubed amp, harmonically rich and complex instruments, such as John Roney’s piano, or Bobby Hutcherson’s vibraphone on Eric Dolphy’s “Out to Lunch (LP, Blue Note/Music Matters MMBST-84163), sounded organically smooth, liquid, and whole, with full harmonic development and believable attack, sustain, and decay. The Hegel’s harmonic envelope seemed smaller in comparison, particularly in terms of sustain and decay, which resulted in a mildly coarser sound. But again, this was audible only in a head-to-head comparison with the twice-the-price Audio Note; the Hegel outdid many other good solid-state amps in listenability, tone, and texture.The Hegel’s dynamic range swung from pianissimo to fortissimo as quickly and effortlessly as the music required, and in this regard it bettered the Audio Note when paired with speakers of average sensitivity. The Röst’s fantastic bass also helped with macrodynamic power by making the thunderous timpani rolls in Mussorgsky’s Night on the Bare Mountain (also on the Rite of Spring disc) sound deeper, tauter, and more impactful than through the Audio Note. The Röst wasn’t quite as deft as the Level 3 in microdynamics, slightly smoothing over pianist Roney’s smaller-scale crescendos and decrescendos in his quieter passages in “Nord Perdu.”Even with the unfair comparison, the Hegel Röst’s sound was very satisfying. Its DAC section unquestionably bettered the very good irDAC-II in nearly every respect, and its amplifier more than held its own against much more expensive competition. Of course, the Audio Note Level 3 EL84 is undeniably better -- even in its own price range, few amps can match its fluid and nearly tangible sound, let alone its sheer musicality. But the Hegel Röst compared favorably with it in many respects, and even eclipsed the Level 3 in bass quality and macrodynamics.

Hegel H30 absolute TOP-Endstufe in einem technisch und optisch einwandfreien Zustand Test The Absolute Sound vom 22. Mai 2012 : https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/hegel-h30-reference-power-amplifier-tas-223/ Zusammenfassung Der Hegel H30 ist nicht nur ein Verstärker mit großartigem Klang, sondern auch ein unglaubliches Schnäppchen. Ich weiß, dass ich Briefe bekommen werde, in denen sich darüber beschwert wird, dass ein 15.000-Dollar-Leistungsverstärker per Definition kein Schnäppchen sein kann. Aber wie soll man einen 15.000-Dollar-Verstärker sonst nennen, der enorme Ausgangsleistung, unerschütterliche Stabilität und eine großartige musikalische Präsentation bietet, die ihn in eine erlesene Liga von Weltklasse-Leistungsverstärkern katapultiert? Oder einen, der im Kontext meines Referenzsystems, das den 54.000-Dollar-Plattenspieler Basis Inspiration und die 94.000-Dollar-Lautsprecher Focal Stella Utopia EM umfasst, vollkommen zu Hause ist? So gut der H30 in allen Aspekten der Musikwiedergabe auch ist, es ist die Wiedergabe der mittleren und hohen Texturen, die diesen Verstärker zu etwas Besonderem macht. Der Hegel verbindet Wärme und Fülle der Klangfarbe mit enormer Klarheit und Auflösung, eine Kombination, die bei Verstärkern jeder Preisklasse selten ist. Der Sinn für Klangfarbenrealismus und Greifbarkeit war in jeder Hinsicht Weltklasse. Darüber hinaus kann man kaum überbewerten, wie sehr diese Eigenschaften ein Gefühl der Leichtigkeit und tiefen musikalischen Beteiligung hervorriefen. Wenn Ihr Verstärkerbudget bei etwa 15.000 $ liegt, sollte der Hegel H30 auf Ihrer Auswahlliste der Produkte stehen, die Sie ausprobieren möchten. Vielleicht finden Sie wie ich heraus, dass diese unscheinbare und unaufdringliche schwarze Box eine skandinavische Überraschung enthält.

Hegel HD30 Silver pre-owned in excellent condition with original box manual remote etc.EU Version 220-240VThe HD30 is the ultimate digital control center. It does everything you can dream of and does so with world-class quality. There is an abundance of inputs, ranging from balanced AES/EBU and BNC connectors, to Network and USB connections – with the latter also accepting DSD signals. The built-in volume attenuator allows you to connect directly to a power amplifier or a pair of active loudspeakers. Highly advanced power supplies and careful lay-out brings the noise floor down towards a mindblowing -150 dB. In short… Do you even dare to try it?Hegel HD30When designing a digital-to-analog converter of world-class, you are essentially making a masterpiece. One for others to try and copy. It is not enough to select the best components on the market and lay them out cleverly. When creating a masterpiece, you must question if you can make it better than the best. The HD30 was just such a masterpiece project. To reach goals that, up until now, was seen as unobtainable, we need to tweak the world’s best-measuring equipment available. Just to be able to fine-tune our clock crystals and power supplies. We designed master clocks from the ground up and went to great lengths to design ultra-low noise power supplies and shielding from outside interference.The results are stunning. The musicality of the HD30 is at a level never before heard. You can experience instruments and virtually feel the room they play in. You feel the smile widening in your face and the hair rising on your arms when the HD30 begins to play. The finger touching the string, a millisecond before the guitar starts to sound. The singer drawing that breath of anticipation right before he starts playing in front of a live crowd. Whether you choose to use Apple AirPlay, a CD-player, a computer or any other device. The HD30 will bring all the music and enthusiasm that exists in the recording.Technical SpecificationsDAC resolution: Dual mono 32 bit/192 kHz multilevel sigma-delta DACLine output: 2.6 V RMSDigital inputs: 1 x coaxial, 3 x optical, 1 x USB, 1 x Ethernet, 1 x BNC, 1 x AES/EBUAnalog outputs: 1 x fixed line level (RCA), 1 x fixed line level (Balanced XLR)Distortion: Typical 0.0005%Frequency response: 0 Hz – 50 kHzNoise floor: Typically -150 dBPower supply: Separate torodial transformers for analog/digital 54,000 ?F capacitorsOutput impedance: 22 ohms unbalanced and 44 ohms balancedControl input: 1 x IR-direct mini-jackFinish: Black and SilverDimensions/weight: 8 cm (10 cm w/feet) x 43 cm x 31 cm (HxWxD), 6,5 kgDimensions/weight US: 3.14?

Im charged with selling off my best friends audio and cycling estate. Here is his beloved original-owner H300 that he bought for $4k+ years ago, and was in use until his passing this summer.I believe its 250w/ch/8 (probably 400+/ch 4) and is REALLY heavy (44lbs), although standard 17 rack width. But depth is closer to 18, at 5 tall. Superceded by the H360 and H390, I think.As with all Hegel amps, theres enormous bass grip due to unique circuitry with huge damping factor. Includes nice aluminum Hegel remote.I dont have original box, but will double-box to ship carefully.Please see other listings for new MoFi SP8, as well his vintage Spendor S3/5, along with an 8ft pair Kimber 8TC, 0.5M pair Nordost Blue Heaven RCA, and my 8 ArgentPur Silver 12 Speaker Cables. Thanks. ErnieM ArgentPur.audio

ListenUp Add to favorite sellers Feedback Menu View all items Feedback About us Contact us HEGEL H390 2 Channel Integrated Amplifier - 250 Watt/Ch (Black) This is a USED, PRE-OWNED, TRADE-IN unit! ListenUp will warranty this unit against technical defects not mentioned in the description for 90 days. It has been fully tested and inspected by our team of audio/video experts. Our inspections are thorough so we can ensure you receive a product that you will love. Please see the description and photos for condition specifics. Buy with confidence from a reputable seller! Excellent condition with no signs of damage or abuse. This unit has been thoroughly tested and is sonically flawless. Comes with factory packing, remote, manual, and power cord. The H390 is a REBEL by offering much of the performance of our Reference products, albeit at a lower price. A REBEL that in one integrated product offers the same as others do in two or three. A REBEL that provides world-class sound, jaw-dropping power and comes packed with convenient services. Nicknaming the H390 Robin Hood is a bit bold, you may think. After all, it isnt pocket money and we are not giving it away to the poor. But it is a rebellion against the established. It is a rebellion because it offers extraordinary resolution and musical quality, typically found only in the most esoteric products, but at a reasonable price. It is a rebellion against the establishment of forcing consumers into a user interface defined by the amplifier/streamer manufacturer. The H390 is very much at the tip of the spear in Hegels pursuit of making mainstream sources sound their very best. Meaning the H390 is not just for the Audiophile. It is a product for the entire family to enjoy. At the heart of the H390 is Hegels patented SoundEngine 2 amplifier section. The SoundEngine 2, in many ways, works like a noise canceling headphone. A computer inside will sample what comes into the amplifier and compares it to what comes out. The computer subtracts the difference (distortion) and then add it into the music but in reverse phase. The result being that, without any time delay, the SoundEngine cancels out almost all errors made by the amplifier. Leaving you with the most musical and natural sound you ever have experienced. Then there is digital. If not using a turntable, you are probably using digital connections. Hegel designs both the analog and digital sections from, the ground up and in house. The digital section in the H390 is unique in that regardless of the signal type or input, the music signal remains unchanged and untampered with in the H390. We call it a bit perfect DA-Converter. This is digital in its purest form. For those interested in deep tech, we even design digital clocks that will follow the sampling frequency in the music and down-clock when receiving a low-resolution file. For the non-techie, the result is a far more natural and analog sound as well as an unbelievable soundstage and realism. Finally, lets talk about connectivity. The H390 has Apple Airplay and UPnP streaming. We offer free updates with services like Spotify Connect, IP Control, and Control4. It supports most audio formats like DSD and MQA. All inputs are configurable for volume bypass, so you can integrate in a home theater or with a Bluesound or Sonos. Almost whatever you want, you can do it with the H390. The H390 is a complete product. Great care has been taken in every step of the design. From carefully selecting and matching components to using the best measurement equipment in the world, in combination with our own ears. Real people gave us input on how they would want to use a stereo system. You can connect virtually anything you like. We call it Robin Hood because it takes strengths from our reference products and offers at a lower price.

Hegel H190 amplifier streamer DAC and DH Labs cable Power - 230V The best amplifier from Hegel in terms of sound/functionality price ratio - the golden mean. Amplifier, DAC, streamer. Power and damping factor allow you to play with any acoustics, I liked the combinations with B&W Dynaudi? KEF ELAC the most. All the information and millions of reviews are easy to find on the Internet, as well as reviews, including from comrade Borzenkov. Bought new in October 2022 (there are documents of purchase), I was the only one who used it. DH Labs Power Plus 2 meter cable is also included. The white color, in my opinion, looks much more interesting than the black version. The ??gel ?190 integrated amplifier occupies a niche between the ?390 and the more budget model ??gel ?120 in the brands line of complete amplifiers. The main difference between the ?190 and its predecessor ?160 was the clear OLED display, which replaced the vacuum fluorescent indicator and the increased damping coefficient. Well, plus to this, the amplifier is now available not only in conservative black, but also in extravagant white. The design uses the legendary Sound Engine 2 technology, developed by ??gel founder Bent Holter for Telenor 20 years ago, which allows you to adjust the signal received by the amplifier in real time. At the same time, instead of traditional feedback, direct communication is used in the circuits. All this helps to minimize various types of distortion, make the sound cleaner and smoother, increase the damping factor and enhance the bass dynamics. ??gel H190 is perhaps one of the most versatile devices today. The model has a built-in DAC, USB port, high-quality headphone amplifier on the JRC4556AD chip and can be used as a power amplifier in a home theater. The AirPlay function is supported, but the Wi-Fi module is not provided in this integrated amplifier, so to implement it, the H190 must be connected to a local network via a LAN interface (DLNA and UPnP protocols are supported). For AirPlay to function, iOS-based devices must be connected to the same network. Thanks to the built-in DLNA streaming module, it is possible to play files from NAS servers and computers in a resolution of up to 24 bits / 192 kHz. The power supply unit has a toroidal transformer and 6 high-capacity capacitors. The power of the H190 reaches 150 W (8 Ohm) per channel, and the damping factor exceeds 4000 units. This means that the amplifier will subdue even the most capricious acoustic systems. The output stage of the Hegel H190 has fast transistors of Japanese manufacture. The device is made in a strict Hegel design. On the slightly convex front aluminum panel there is a display showing the selected input, power indicator and other symbols. On the right there is a volume control and a 6.3 mm headphone jack, and on the left - an input selector. The power button is located on the bottom of the case. There is a remote control, which can also control the playback of tracks of software media players when connected to a computer via USB. Inputs: linear RCA, balanced XLR, RCA for direct access to the final stage (relevant for home theaters), three optical, coaxial, USB and LAN ports. Outputs: linear fixed and adjustable (both on RCA connectors). There are two pairs of screw terminals for connecting to the speaker system. The ??gel ?190 amplifier has a clean, open sound with excellent resolution and dense, dynamic bass. The model also allows you to significantly improve the sound of sources such as smartphones, tablets, etc. ??gel ?190 has received the Ron Ready certificate. To start using the service from Ron Labs, owners of ??gel devices simply need to update the firmware. ??gel H190 Specifications Output power 2 x 150 W (8 Ohm), 2 x 250 W (4 Ohm)Headphone amplifier output power 2 x 270 mW (64 Ohm)Frequency range 5 Hz – 100 kHzSignal-to-noise ratio over 100 dBCross-talk less than – 100 dBHarmonic distortion coefficient 0.005% (50 W, 8 Ohm, 1 kHz)Intermodulation distortion coefficient less than 0.01% (19 kHz + 20 kHz)Damping factor over 4000AirPlay support yes (with wired connection via local network)DLNA and UPnP protocol support yesRoon ReadyDAC AKM4396 (24 bit/192 kHz)Inputs linear RCA, balanced XLR, fixed Home Theatre Max Level Input (RCA) for direct access to the final stage, 3 optical (24 bit/192 kHz), coaxial (24 bit/192 kHz), USB port (24 bit/96 kHz), LAN (Network)Outputs 6.3 mm for headphones, linear fixed (RCA) and adjustable (RCA)Output to the speaker 2 pairs of screw terminalsPower supply toroidal transformer, 6 capacitors N?ver of 10,000 ?FRemote control ??gel RC 8, universalDimensions (WxHxD) 430x120x410 mmWeight 19 kg (with packaging)
