Hegel Amplifiers

Jferreir/Mst,
I searched the net and found the term. I was probably too engrossed in searching for info. on the amps. No issues from my side.

Happy Holidays to you too :-)

Found some information here:

Hi guys,
Need a favour from the lucky few who will be visiting the CES 2010. Can you please (please, please) check out the Hegel H20 amp? I have narrowed my choices down to the Hegel H20 and the Parasound A21 at this point in time and need to buy one ASAP. I am loosing my mind trying to find out which one best matches in my system.
I have heard great things about the Aragon and Acurus brands, but don't know what products they will launch at CES.

Thanks much,

Hello Milpai.
H2O is a class D amplifier and if you are looking into this category you must check Spectron which probably is the best class D amp around. Check their web site - they have promotion with free $1.5k upgarde.

Good Luck in your search!

Rafael

Hi Rafael,

I am aware of the H2O you mentioned. Here is the H20 I am talking about: http://www.hegel.com/h20.htm

H20 VS H2O :-)

What I intend to find out is - Is the Hegel H20 worth the premium over Parasound A21 at more than two times the cost of the Parasound? I know that I cannot go wrong with the A21. I have not come across one user experience that dismisses these amps as "bad". Most people consider them as "not as good as the ultimate", which is a very good thing for the price they command.

Class D is something I considered before (W4S, NuForce, CIA, etc). But looks like they might not go as well with a TVC, as a regular class AB amp would go.
