Hegel H150 Streaming Amplifier vs Hegel H95 Integrated Amplifier
The H150 is the newer, more capable Hegel: 75 watts per channel, a built-in MM phono stage, a custom four-layer DAC and a full network streaming suite. The H95 is the older, simpler streaming amp at 60 watts, with AirPlay, UPnP and Spotify Connect but no phono input and no Wi-Fi. Both share Hegel's SoundEngine 2 distortion reduction and a damping factor above 2000, so both grip difficult speakers well. Buy the H150 for vinyl and the widest set of sources; buy the H95 if you stream from a phone or NAS and never need a turntable.
- Choose the Hegel H150 if you play vinyl, want the extra power and the newer DAC, and want one box that covers streaming, phono and digital inputs.
- Choose the Hegel H95 if you stream over AirPlay or UPnP from a phone or NAS and do not need a phono stage or the extra watts.
