Together with the A200, it represents one of two listening paths: one connected, one fully analog. The H200 is The Connected: an integrated amplifier with streaming, DAC, MM phono input, headphone output, USB drive playback, and 150 watts of output power per channel. It brings flexibility and highend performance together in one powerful, elegant component. But the H200 is not built around features for their own sake. Every part of it is made to work together, with the amplifier at the center and the music as the priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the H200 is the powerful 150W analog Class A\/B amplifier section. However, the power rating only tells part of the story. What matters just as much is how the amplifier behaves when driving real loudspeakers with real music. The H200 uses Hegel’s SoundEngine2 technology to reduce distortion in real time. Instead of correcting errors after they have already passed through the amplifier, Sound-Engine2 detects distortion where it occurs and cancels it before it can travel further through the signal path. Combined with stability down to 2-ohm loads, the result is an amplifier that remains clean, composed, and controlled, even when the music becomes complex or the loudspeaker load becomes demanding. A damping factor of more than 4000 gives the H200 firm control over the loudspeaker drivers. Bass notes start and stop with precision. Rhythms become easier to follow. The entire presentation gains clarity because low-frequency energy is kept in order. This is not control for its own sake. It is control in service of the music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough the H200 is built for streaming and digital playback, its foundation is still a serious analog amplifier. It includes a balanced XLR input, two unbalanced RCA inputs, fixed and variable line level outputs, and a high-quality headphone output for private listening. This gives external DACs, CD players, and other components connected through analog inputs a proper place in the system. The H200 may be connected, but at its core it remains a serious analog amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe H200 includes a dedicated Moving Magnet phono input based on the MM section of our standalone V10 phono stage, using hand-matched FET transistor gain stages together with carefully selected op-amps. Designed for low noise, precision, and musicality, it is not a checklist feature, but a high-performance input we are happy to recommend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2x150W into 8 Ohms @ 1kHz 1% THD , 100\/120\/230V AC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum load:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 ohms\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalog inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1x Balanced (XLR), 2x Unbalanced (RCA)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhono input:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x Unbalanced (RCA) for Moving Magnet (MM)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDigital outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1x Coaxial S\/PDIF - 24\/192\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDigital inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1x Coaxial (RCA) S\/PDIF - 24\/192, 2x Optical S\/PDIF - 24\/96, 1x USB B- 24\/192, 1x USB A 2.0 - USB Drives (10,000 songs), 1x Network - 24\/192\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLine level outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1x Unbalanced variable (RCA), 1x Unbalanced fixed (RCA)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStreaming:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spotify Connect (Lossless), Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect, Apple AirPlay, Google Cast, airable Internet Radio and Podcast, UPnP\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStreaming formats:\u003c\/strong\u003e MP3, WAV, FLAC, ALAC, AIFF, AAC, PCM, Ogg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSmart Home:\u003c\/strong\u003e Control4, Crestron Home, Crestron SIMPL\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5Hz-100kHz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSignal-to-noise ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e More than 100dB\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrosstalk:\u003c\/strong\u003e Less than -100dB\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDistortion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Less than 0.01% @ 50W 8 Ohms 1kHz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIntermodulation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Less than 0.01% (19kHz + 20kHz)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDamping factor:\u003c\/strong\u003e More than 4000 (main power output stage)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\/weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 43 x 41 x 12 cm (WxDxH), 13.6 kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\/weight US:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17 x 16.2 x 4.7\" (WxDxH), 30 lbs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cinehome.co.uk\/site\/assets\/files\/1675\/h390catalogue.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eH390Catalogue (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hegel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65984504856967,"sku":"H200","price":3500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1099\/4414\/4263\/files\/screenshot_2023-02-24_at_13_19_39.png?v=1790093369"},{"product_id":"a200-stereo-amplifier","title":"A200 Stereo Amplifier","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree in-person UK Delivery \u0026amp; Expert Installation Included. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e(Please note this amplifier is not available to purchase on our website.

An amplifier. No DAC. No streaming section. No digital inputs. Just carefully executed analog amplification. There are many reasons to choose an amplifier without built-in digital functions. Some listeners already own a DAC they love. Some use a separate streamer. Some build their systems around vinyl, CD, radio, or other source components. Others simply prefer a system where each product has one clear job. The A200 does not decide the front end of the system for you. Its job is to give each source component a stable, clean, and powerful analog foundation. This helps every connected source perform at its best, with its own character, detail, and dynamics intact.

What should be easy and enjoyable, suddenly becomes complex and stressful. Playing a CD on the Viking is not. It is only joy. Viking is a true native 16\/44.1 CD player developed from the ground up for optimal performance on standard (Redbook) CDs. It is designed to deliver the most faithful sound reproduction possible by optimizing its components to deliver a high-quality output that is true to the original recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe have called our CD player Viking because, much like our ancient Norse forefathers, we are improving on existing technology. When the Viking era began, boats had been around for thousands of years. What the Vikings did was perfect the design. Their longboats could not only sail near the coasts but also traverse the open oceans. The improvements they made took the Vikings to new shores and even new continents. The CD technology might be old, but we believe that when perfected, it is still the best digital medium available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt first glance Viking might seem simple, but with simplicity comes excellence.

No flashy details or unnecessary features distract from its purpose. Like the raven, it may seem plain, but this DAC is a master of its craft. Beneath the sleek exterior lies a remarkable ability to decode and deliver digital audio with breathtaking precision. The D50 unveils a soundstage so expansive it feels as though you're soaring high above the music, revealing every intricate detail with stunning clarity. Whether you choose to focus on the smallest nuances or simply let the music carry you, the D50 offers an unparalleled listening experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHegel has been perfecting the art of DAC design for more than two decades, and the D50 represents the pinnacle of that expertise. At its core lies the latest model DAC chip - a sophisticated tool with immense potential. But like the raven, one of the few animals capable of using tools with precision, the D50's genius lies in how it wields this technology. Every detail of the circuit design and layout has been meticulously crafted to extract the full potential of the DAC chip, transforming it from a mere component into a masterful instrument. The result is a design that uses this tool to its fullest, unlocking extraordinary sound reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe D50 takes extraordinary measures to ensure the purity of its sound reproduction. Its power management is designed to silence noise and deliver clean energy to every part of the device. Advanced filters on the power input eliminate noise from the mains, and when connected to a grounded power outlet, this filtering can even enhance the performance of other equipment in the same circuit. To eliminate electrical noise even further, the D50 employs two low-noise toroidal transformers. One delivers power to the noisier digital processes and standby functionality while the other is dedicated to the sensitive analog and digital components. Both transformers are shielded by thick steel and placed far from any sensitive electronics and their output is also filtered, ensuring the D50 operates with the purest power, allowing its performance to take flight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt Hegel, we approach circuit board design with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring the best possible performance. In the D50, even the routing features rounded corners to minimize impedance drops and reduce radiation, reflecting our commitment to precision. However, the real innovation lies in how the D50 processes incoming digital signals before converting them to analog. The AES\/EBU input features a unique RS422 receiver balanced by a transformer, allowing it to handle both weak and strong signals flawlessly, free of jitter and time delays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor SPDIF-based inputs, signals are received on a custom-designed card that unpacks the I2S data. While this process is inherently noisy and prone to timing errors, the D50 addresses these issues with precision. The decoded signals are reclocked using three dedicated master clocks: one for SPDIF signals, and for USB, separate master clocks for 48k and 44.1k sample rates. Strategically placed to minimize noise, these clocks deliver a perfectly timed signal to the DAC chip, enabling the purest and most accurate digital-to-analog conversion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe DAC chip itself is thoughtfully perched on a separate board above the rest of the electronics. This elevated placement reduces noise and interference while providing short and unobstructed signal paths. With the D50, every aspect of the design has been carefully engineered to ensure that the signal remains as true to the original as possible. The result is an unaltered and breathtakingly accurate translation from digital to analog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe D50's construction is as solid as it is purposeful. Its aluminium housing provides both durability and a refined appearance and improves sound performance. Premium connectors ensure reliable performance, while aluminium feet with rubber soles guarantee stability. The thick, milled aluminium front plate conceals the buttons for an unbroken, elegant facade.

With 30 years' experience designing state-of-the-art discrete transistor circuits, we have built a phono preamplifier like no other. It is neutral, dynamic, and exceptionally revealing. We have used all our knowledge in amplification and applied it to one goal - To reach down into the record and reveal every bit of information. The V10 is designed to capture the sound. To get you closer to the music. To get you into the groove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eListening to vinyl is a tactile experience. You carefully open the album jacket, remove the record from the inner sleeve, inspect for dust or scratches, place it on the platter, and slowly let the needle drop to let the sound out. It is all about you and your music, selected for exactly this moment. With the V10 we aim to make this special experience even better. Developed from the ground up and utilizing truly clever and unique technologies, the V10 will give you an unprecedented transparency and soundscape - Making the music you hear as tangible and real as the record it is pressed into.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWe achieve this because everything on the V10 is designed with the sole purpose of making your music sound as good as possible. The chassis is divided into two compartments, physically separating the power supplies from the sensitive amplification circuitry. There is simply no detectable interference between the two parts. For the best possible connection, we have fitted the V10 with gold-plated terminals, balanced XLR outputs, and a solid custom grounding screw. On the all-important input stage, we have used ultra-low-noise discrete JFET transistors for both the Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) input. Eliminating external noise is especially important when using sensitive low output MC cartridges. That is why we have fitted the MC input with four such transistors connected in parallel. Making the input completely silent and stopping any bias current feedback to the cartridge coil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe input signal feeds into equally silent amplifier circuits, where both the MM and the MC gain stages use ultra-low-noise power supplies built with discrete bipolar transistors to keep the signal noise at a minimum. This ensures an extremely accurate amplification of the input signal coming from the turntable. And to make sure the V10 gets the best operating conditions, it is supplied with a linear, low noise, analog AC-power supply. This features a large, custom design, E-core transformer, placed in its own housing to eliminate all possibility of interference. For us it has been particularly important that all vinyl enthusiasts get to enjoy the V10. So, out of the box it is configured as an excellent plug and play MM preamplifier. For many, this is exactly what they want and need, but some want even more. That is why we made the V10 highly optimizable, catering to individual preferences and requirements in set up, the V10 can be adjusted for any MM and MC cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen using a MM cartridge, you can freely increase the Capacitance between 100 and 467 pF and when using a MC cartridge, the impedance can be set freely between 33 and 550 ohms or fixed at 47 kohm. On both MM and MC, the gain can be increased by 5, 10 or 12 dB, matching the output of your other sources, the V10 even has a Subsonic Filter to remove unwanted low frequency noise. And at the end of the night, when the listening session takes you way past bedtime and you forget to turn off the V10, the adjustable auto standby function does that for you. All this makes the V10 the perfect companion for your vinyl setup. Finding the perfect synergy between your system and your listening preferences. Transporting you into the groove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmplifier Typology:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ultra low noise discrete JFET transistor input stage for both MC and MM\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGain XLR Out MM:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40dB \/ 45dB \/ 50dB \/ 52dB\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGain XLR Out MC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60dB \/ 65dB \/ 70dB \/ 72dB\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGain RCA Out MM:\u003c\/strong\u003e 34dB \/ 39dB \/ 44dB \/ 46dB\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGain RCA Out MC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 54dB \/ 59dB \/ 64dB \/ 66dB\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMC Load Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Freely adjustable between 33 and 550 ohm \/ 47 kohm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMM Load Capacitance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100pF \/ 147pF \/ 220pF \/ 247pF \/ 320pF \/ 420pF \/ 467pF @ 47 kohm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubsonic Filter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Switchable on \/ off, -3dB at 20Hz, -18dB octave\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRIAA Accuracy:\u003c\/strong\u003e +\/- 0,2dB \/ 20Hz - 20kHz\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Noise*:\u003c\/strong\u003e -84dB\/MM (\"A\" weighted ref: 0dBV), -81dB\/MC (\"A\" weighted ref: 0dBV)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Impedance XLR \/ RCA:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 ohm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChannel Crosstalk:\u003c\/strong\u003e -84dB @1kHz 0dBV\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2Hz - 20kHz\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistortion (THD) MM:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt; 0.005% @1kHz 0dBV\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistortion (THD) MC:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt; 0.009% @1kHz 0dBV\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x unbalanced (RCA) MM, 1 x unbalanced (RCA) MC\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x unbalanced fixed (RCA), 1 x balanced fixed (XLR)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Adapter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hegel Power Adapter M30103\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions with Feet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6cm x 21cm x 28cm, 2.4\" x 8,3\" x 11\" (H x W x D)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2,2kg \/ 4,9lbs unit weight\u003cbr\u003e\n* When stable operating temperature has been reached\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hegel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65984585138567,"sku":"V10","price":1350.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1099\/4414\/4263\/files\/image_12-06-2025_at_08_00.jpg?v=1790093585"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.cinehome.co.uk\/collections\/hegel.oembed","provider":"Cinehome","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
