Hegel or Ayre

Looking to get a new integrated amp and the Ayre AX-7e and Hegel H100 are on the short list.

I’d appreciate any input on these including reliability and customer service.

Thanks.

Both companies make fine gear...

It provides great bass control, fine nuanced details, air, and great sound stage. In my rig, it performs very well, and I'm pleased at its price point, not looking to change anything for a long time...Hope that helps.
