Hegel Music Systems H190v Streaming Integrated Amplifier Review
May 9, 2025 Comments Off on Hegel Music Systems H190v Streaming Integrated Amplifier Review
I briefly used the H190v with my Paul Carmody–designed DIY Amiga speakers, though the majority of my time with the H190v was spent using the Focal Theva N°2 loudspeakers. A pair of AmazonBasics 14AWG OFC speaker cables conferred power to the Focals. A Micro Seiki DQ-3 with an Audio-Technica AT95SH cartridge at the end of its MA-707 tonearm served as an analog source, while an Oppo BDP-105 universal disc player served as a digital source. The Oppo has a multitude of output options, so I was able to use both Have, Inc. RCA cables and Blue Jeans Cable DA202 XLRs to link to the H190v’s analog inputs, while a Tributaries Delta coax linked to the digital input. I used a generic Cat6 ethernet cable to connect my Netgear R6080 router to the H190v for streaming. And, as I’ll soon delve into, I used a Creek OBH-8SE phono preamp to compare against the H190v’s built-in phono stage.
