Hegel H160 -> Hegel H390 upgrade suggestion


Hi - I am driving H160 with Focal Electra 1008Be bookshelves with Rythmik F12SE sub woofer for the low end. I was curious if upgrade to H390 which is almost double the power that H160 provides would make any difference to my bookshelves for which H160 (power wise) seems adequate.

Hegal is just coming out, with the New 600 so I imagine the newer better smaller version will be out too.

You have pass labs, and Luxman ,as well as Ayre .

the assembly in China with the Hegel totally turned me off  when I was  found that out a couple years ago  the above don’t have a inner dac but higher quality layout inside  imo.

No vintage equipment can go toe to toe with the New Hegel integrated amps ,

pits very respectable , my only knock is that they assemble in China ,no need for Thst just to make much bigger profit ,

Luxman don’t ,or Pass Labs and the  Krell 300i is excellent  I forgot 

and my dealer gave my friend a good deal on his  for under $8k a great piece of engineering.and made in U.S.A.
