Hegel H400 Streamliner - Integrated Amplifier and Streaming Client

The Hegel H400, affectionately known as the 'Streamliner', embodies a perfect combination of sleek design and impressive performance. This amplifier is an exceptional choice not only for audiophiles but also for casual users, promising a unique listening experience. Designed to deliver unparalleled audio quality, the H400 optimizes efficiency and takes the user experience to a new level.

Exceptional sound quality thanks to optimized signal processing

As a Class AB amplifier, the H400 delivers a whopping 250W into 8 ohms and remains stable even under a load of up to 2 ohms. With an outstanding damping factor of 4000, the H400 guarantees precise control over your speakers, resulting in a dynamic and powerful sound. The dual-mono construction and symmetrical layout ensure the highest sound quality. Without the use of an equalizer, signal integrity remains unadulterated, while SoundEngine 2 technology offers instant distortion corrections during amplification. The result is a detailed and agile sound that impresses with both punch and finesse and maximizes efficiency. Experience your music in new clarity and depth, with every detail reproduced faithfully.

Common properties with the reference amplifier

The H400 shares many advanced features with Hegel's reference integrated amplifier, ensuring high performance and value. These include the dual-mono design, a robust streaming platform and a high-quality, bit-perfect DAC based on that of the H600. These shared features ensure that the H400 offers the same high standard of sound quality and versatility, making it the ideal choice for discerning listeners.

In-house development for maximum efficiency

Every aspect of the H400 has been developed in-house to ensure the highest quality control and seamless design. This efficient development process avoids unnecessary steps and compromises, allowing our engineers to focus on innovation and performance. With everything built under one roof, perfect integration and increased reliability are guaranteed. This strategy also enables rapid implementation of new features and ensures that the H400 always stays at the cutting edge of audio technology.

Optimized streaming and control options

The H400 has been optimized for maximum user-friendliness and supports a variety of popular streaming platforms such as AirPlay, Spotify Connect, Roon Ready, Tidal Connect, Google Cast™ and UPnP. Control is done directly via these services or via the Hegel Control app, which also offers volume and input controls as well as access to Internet radio, podcasts and media server playback. This makes the listening experience comfortable and versatile - whether you want to stream your favorite music or discover new podcasts.
