I think they're different tools for different jobs. I wouldn't want the pathos for my VA speakers, but with the persona's they make an excellent match.
Hegel or Pathos?
Hey all,
Another subjective question here, but even tho I'm perfectly happy with my Pathos Classic Mk 3, I'm wondering whether I should return to a Hegel, specifically a Hegel 160 or 360?
Both have balanced inputs, which is a must for me. The Hegel it's more powerful, and I feel like my Spatials could do with more wattage. The Pathos delivers 140 watts into 4 ohms, and my LFD SE phono stage offers ample gain.
Could anyone with experience in both of these (admittedly a tall order) offer any advice? I had the Hegel 160 and I really can't remember why I got rid of it, though I know it was for the pathos.
Many thanks.
