Hegel H160 w ciekawej recenzji HiFi Choice ( UK ) |
 Scandinavia is rightly celebrated for its broody TV detective shows, natty knitwear, unforgiving weather and gorgeous design aesthetic, but is also becoming known for hi-fi excellence. Norwegian manufacturer Hegel is part of a wave of Nordic names grabbing our attention, and this is its latest integrated amplifier, the H160. Back in issue 391 we reviewed the manufacturer’s H80 integrated amp and DAC and were left suitably impressed. Now it’s the turn of the H80’s bigger brother, which promises to improve upon the fine work of its sibling. The H160 is a little bit deeper and taller and considerably heavier, hinting at some greater muscularity.
The H160 looks and feels that little bit more beefy and appetising. The
same understated design ethos as its sibling remains, with a blue-lit
LED display flanked by twin rotary controls that smoothly change source
input and volume. It gains a headphone output stage and boasts a
lightly different mix of input options. It only has one dedicated
analogue RCA input alongside another fixed-level RCA input designed for
home theatre applications (which can be reconfigured to be a regular RCA
input if required). It also retains the H80’s quality balanced analogue
XLR input for those with balanced analogue sources.
