The Hegel H190 is a 150-watt-per-channel integrated amplifier with built-in AirPlay and DLNA streaming, a DAC with USB, coaxial and optical inputs, and Hegel's SoundEngine2 distortion-correcting circuitry. Its standout figure is a damping factor above 4000, which gives it unusually firm control of bass and difficult speaker loads down to 2 ohms. It suits listeners who want one box to run streaming, digital sources and a turntable or other analog gear without adding separates. Against cheaper integrateds it trades extras like room correction and HDMI for raw current delivery and a quiet, spacious presentation; reviewers rate its grip and dynamics highly, while its lean feature set and plain display are the usual trade-offs.
