Glenn we were a hegel dealer for years not warm at all very clean and dynamic low coloration designs
Hegel H120 a good pairing with Heritage Cornwalls?
I am hoping …as my Hegel is “in the mail”, that this matchup is complimentary. I’ve listened to many talk about exceptional bass, revealing midrange, and smoother top treble with the H 120… I know it will be a bit overdone with 102 db sensitivity Klipsch but since Hegel separates the two gains, I’m hopeful for big headroom and future possible larger listening room.(Right now, I have a 7’ triangle).
Is there another associate that can add perspectives?

So far BASS on my Cornwalls is dominant and boomy. I have treated the room and will try again… if it doesn’t work putting up sound diffusers and bass absorbing, I’ll put it out there to sell. It could be: too much power for 102db speakers. The NAD C136BEE works great, which is the Summer replacing amp for the heating 300B tube amp. |
How many hours do you have on the amp? Might need some more hours to settle in and I wouldn’t make any firm conclusions until 200 hours or so. Even still, this is surprising because Hegel amps are noted for their relatively high damping factor so this is a bit strange. How close are your speakers from the wall, and have you tried pulling them out a bit? Just some thoughts FWIW. |
@soix yes maybe. But having the Blusound Node X, it will be expendable. I’m currently amping with a Flea Audio and receiving the best SS overall performance I think will suffice. Huge airy balanced sound with larger soundstage than tube. |
