| Room tuning or listen to as is condition? I have Revel Salon 2 speakers in a small 12’x 13’ room and I get great bass. I sit approx. 8.5 to 9 feet from the speakers. The bass is not absolutely perfect in my room, but it’s close. I’m totally thrilled and blown away by the bass quantity and... | |

| Hegel H590 integrated amp I use the Hegel H590 strictly as an amp/preamp, for it’s superb power and sound quality. Although the H590 has an amazing (I’ve actually heard it) internal DAC, I opted to go with a superior DAC to the H590s DAC, my awesome external DAC, the Ayre ... | |

| Another Hegel H390 vs H590 Thread I just upgraded from the H390 to the H590. The H390 is an amazing integrated, in it's own right, but when I purchased very large, inefficient speakers, I needed even more power then what the H390 had to offer, so I decided to upgraded to the H590... | |
| Hegel H590 with BW 800D I have the notoriously inefficient and hard to drive Revel Salon 2 speakers. After needing to move from my much larger room to a very moderately size room, I decided to downsize and go from separates to an integrated. My first amp was the Hegel... | |
| Another Hegel H390 vs H590 Thread I have a very moderately size room that I currently use an Hegel H390 to drive a pair of, not so efficient, Revel Salon 2 speakers. The H390 does a great job of driving my speakers and also sounds outstanding paired with my Ayre Acoustics QX-5 Twe... | |
| Has anyone herd the Hegel h390 I own the Hegel H390, and I can tell you that it is an incredible sounding unit. I us it as an amp/ preamp only. It's not overtly warm, nor is it overtly neutral, either. The H390 is extremely powerful with an extremely high damping factor so i... | |
| Streaming with the Hegel H390 Generally, based on my extensive experience, stand alone DACs always seem to out perform integrated DACs. I use an Ayre Acoustic QX-5 Twenty DAC with my Hegel H390 with stunning results. Using the internal DAC that came with a component is usual... | |
| All New Magico A5 Loudspeakers // Biggest "BANG" For Your BUCK On The Market ?!
