Hegel H 150 Integrated Streaming Amplifier

Hegel H150 Streaming Amplifier – The smart powerhouse for audiophile sound quality

The Hegel H150 is a high-quality streaming amplifier that combines sonic excellence, modern design, and comprehensive connectivity in a compact unit. As the entry-level model in the renowned Hegel series, it's not without reason that it's nicknamed "Prodigy" – its performance clearly exceeds its price range.

With its innovative technology and sophisticated operating concept, the H150 is aimed equally at music lovers, home theater fans, and design-conscious consumers. Thanks to its compact design, it fits perfectly into modern living spaces—whether on a shelf, sideboard, or media furniture.

High-quality sound architecture with SoundEngine 2

At the heart of the H150 is a Class AB amplifier stage featuring Hegel's patented SoundEngine 2 technology, ensuring exceptionally detailed reproduction and high control. Despite its output power of 2 x 75 watts into 8 ohms, the amplifier delivers impressive dynamics, punch, and exceptionally clean signal processing. A damping factor of over 2000 guarantees precise bass control and reliable driving of even difficult speaker loads down to 2 ohms.

Excellent DAC & comprehensive streaming features

A specially developed 4-layer DAC, inspired by the Hegel Viking CD player, processes digital signals with the utmost precision. Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect, Apple AirPlay, Google Cast, UPnP, and internet radio via Airable are supported – for unlimited music enjoyment. Thanks to automatic firmware updates, the H150 always stays up to date.

Maximum connection versatility for digital and analog sources

Whether it's a TV, laptop, streamer, or turntable, the H150 offers numerous connection options: optical and coaxial digital inputs, USB-B and USB-A, Ethernet, analog RCA input, balanced XLR input, and a high-quality phono MM input. This allows for optimal integration of any source—even an external DAC or active speaker system can be connected via the digital output.

Convenient operation & smart home compatibility

The H150 is designed for everyday use: It automatically detects active sources and can be controlled via TV remote controls, the elegant aluminum remote, voice assistants like Google Home and Apple Home, and the free Hegel Control app. Whether multi-room playback via AirPlay or Google Cast or personalized music enjoyment – the H150 is as flexible as your lifestyle.
