{"product_id":"hegel-h190v","title":"Hegel H190v Streaming Integrated Amplifier","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou want a single component that handles everything: streaming, amplification, and DAC duties, without compromising on sound. Most integrated amplifiers with built-in streaming are built around convenience first, audio quality second. The result is a flat, congested presentation that leaves you wondering why your speakers sound better than your system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe chose the Hegel H190v because it refuses that trade-off. At 150 watts per channel, with Hegel's proprietary SoundEngine2 technology at its core, it is one of the most capable streaming integrated amplifiers available at its price point. This is not a feature-packed receiver dressed up as a hi-fi component. It is a serious amplifier that happens to stream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the H190v Outperforms Most\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSoundEngine2: Distortion Eliminated at the Source\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost amplifiers manage distortion after the fact. They introduce it, then try to correct it. Hegel's patented SoundEngine2 technology eliminates the feedback loop that causes distortion in the first place. The result is a signal path that is cleaner, faster, and more accurate than conventional Class AB designs. You hear it as a blacker background, more precise imaging, and a midrange that never sounds strained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStreaming Done Right\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe H190v supports Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, and Apple AirPlay 2 natively. No dongle, no workaround, no compromise in resolution. It also handles UPnP and DLNA for local library playback. Every source, digital or analog, passes through the same high-performance internal DAC, so the gap between your streaming service and your CD player effectively disappears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e150 Watts of Effortless Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower on paper means nothing without control. The H190v delivers 150 watts per channel into 8 ohms with a minimum load impedance of 2 ohms, meaning it will drive virtually any loudspeaker on the market without breaking a sweat. Dynamic peaks stay composed. Low-level detail stays intact. The amplifier simply gets out of the way of the music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Audio Two Verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe H190v is the amplifier we recommend when a customer wants to stop managing a stack of components and start listening. It is not a compromise between convenience and quality. It is the rare product that delivers both without apology. Whether you are streaming from TIDAL or spinning vinyl through the balanced XLR input, the H190v handles it with the same composure and authority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTech You Can Hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWhat You Hear\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWhy It Happens\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlacker backgrounds and precise imaging\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSoundEngine2 eliminates distortion before it enters the signal path\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeamless, high-resolution streaming\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNative Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, and AirPlay 2 integration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEffortless dynamic control\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e150W per channel into 8 ohms, stable to 2 ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConsistent sound across all sources\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAll inputs routed through the same high-performance internal DAC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWide, stable soundstage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBalanced XLR input and low-noise power supply design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 x 150W into 8 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Load Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignal Processing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hegel SoundEngine2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDigital Inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coaxial S\/PDIF, Optical S\/PDIF x2, Network, USB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnalog Inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Balanced XLR, Unbalanced RCA x2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStreaming:\u003c\/strong\u003e Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, UPnP, DLNA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Speaker binding posts, Fixed RCA line out, Headphone (6.35mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5Hz to 180kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignal-to-Noise Ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e More than 100dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W x H x D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 17.1 x 4.3 x 14.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30.9 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-Year Manufacturer Warranty (Authorized Dealer Support)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Audio Two\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe design systems, not just collections of components.
