The amplifier has a dual mono design, bringing it as close as possible to the performance of two mono amplifiers in a single box. It also features a state-of-the-art preamplifier with the extremely precise volume pad also found in the P30A reference amplifier. All electronic circuits are designed in-house and we only use the highest quality components. This provides unprecedented control over the amplification process.
And all this combined with Hegel's SoundEngine2 correction technology allows you to obtain an audio signal that is as close as possible to the original recording. The result is an immensely wide and deep soundstage with incredible dynamic range and tremendous bass control. This amplifier reveals all the details and nuances of the music. All you have to do is connect a pair of really good speakers of your choice.
The H600's D/A converter is a bit of a perfect design, delivering pure audio fidelity without the need for resampling or oversampling. The DAC has a large, dedicated power supply that ensures stable and unpolluted performance, and is protected by a thick steel plate so that there is no interference from other electronic components inside the amplifier. The result is a next-generation D/A converter with incredible resolution and smoothness.
The chassis is made of aluminum for better audio performance. Includes a solid lower chassis and upper deck with two-layer milled vents for added rigidity and airflow. Large aluminum feet with anti-scratch design ensure excellent stability and reduced vibrations, while high-quality RCA connectors and optimized positioning of analog and digital connectors provide less noise and better channel separation. The large control knobs are equipped with touch control, making this amplifier easy to operate and intuitive. They also have a very pleasant tactile feel, making every adjustment a pleasure.
At Hegel they are convinced that excellent audio should not come at the expense of ease of use. That's why the H600 features a comprehensive list of transmission options. Supports UPnP streaming, Spotify Connect, Airplay 2, Google Chromecast, Tidal Connect, and Roon Ready (pending). However, this is just the beginning. This highly advanced streaming engine will ensure that the amplifier is always up to date with the latest options so you can stream music.
The H600 is also highly customizable to ensure it fits any environment. All digital inputs except USB have signal detection. This means that any device connected to these inputs can activate the amplifier and set it to the correct input. Additionally, the volume can be limited to fit your maximum volume preference.
With the remote control feature, the amplifier can be programmed to be controlled by common TV remotes, eliminating the need to use two remotes and making it easy for everyone in the family to get great TV sound. Most inputs can also be configured as a high-level fixed home theater input, making it easy to pair the H600 with surround sound receivers or multi-room devices. As with streaming, more features will be available in the future. Of course, these firmware updates are always free and the amplifier will automatically install them when they start up, ensuring your H600 is always up to date.
The amplifier features a wide range of analog and digital connections to accommodate various audio sources. There are two pairs of True Balanced XLR inputs and two pairs of RCA inputs. On the digital front, it features a LAN port, a USB 32/384 input (DSD256/DoP compatible), three optical inputs, a coaxial input, and a true 75-ohm BNC input. For analog outputs, it offers a pair of fixed-level RCA outputs and a pair of variable-level RCA outputs. Additionally, it provides a real 75 ohm fixed level BNC digital output.
The H600 is an extremely capable and excellent sounding amplifier. It is highly versatile, offering high-end sound and ease of use, all in a high-quality, minimalist casing that suits any interior style. The H600 is a hub for your digital music, a home for all your connected sources, with sound fit for mansions.
