Hegel H400 Integrated Amplifier
The Hegel H400 replaces the H390 as our newest high-value proposition for the cus- tomer who wants to drive any speaker, connect any source, and stream any way, without compromising on quality. Our goal has been to create an all-in-one solution that doesn’t break the bank and still meets our highest aspirations for audio performance and user friendliness. In our maybe not-so-humble opinion, we believe we have managed just that. With 250 watts of power, a high-end DAC, and a very advanced streaming section, the H400 only needs a good set of speakers to be a complete audiophile system. Oh, and for the first time ever, we’ve made a Hegel Control App.
H400 - Streamliner
The Hegel H400 amplifier, affectionately nicknamed Streamliner, is a masterpiece of streamlined design and performance. The H400 is engineered to deliver exceptional au- dio quality while maximizing efficiency and enhancing the user experience. Whether you are an audiophile or a casual listener, the H400 promises a remarkable listening journey.
Streamlined Audio Signal Processing
The H400 is a Class AB amplifier, delivering 250W of power into 8 ohms, and is stable down to 2-ohm loads. With a remarkable damping factor of 4000, H400 ensures tight control over your speakers, providing precise and dynamic sound. H400’s dual mono construction and symmetrical layout ensure superior sound quality. The absence of an www.hegel.com equalizer preserves signal integrity, while our SoundEngine 2 technology offers instant distortion correction during amplification. This results in a detailed, agile sound, deliver- ing both punch and finesse while maximizing power efficiency. Experience your favorite music with a new level of clarity and richness, as the H400 faithfully reproduces every nuance and detail.
Shared Features with Reference Integrated Amplifier
The H400 incorporates many of the same advanced features found in our reference inte- grated amplifier, ensuring high performance and value. It includes the same Dual Mono design, the same robust streaming platform, and a high-quality bit-perfect DAC based on the one in the H600. These shared features mean that the H400 delivers similar high standards of sound quality and versatility, making it a remarkable choice for discerning listeners.
Efficiency through In-House Development
Every aspect of the H400 has been meticulously developed in-house, ensuring unparal- leled quality control and cohesive design. This streamlined approach eliminates unneces- sary steps and complications, allowing our engineers to focus on innovation and perfor- mance. By keeping development under one roof, we guarantee that every component and feature is perfectly integrated, enhancing overall efficiency and reliability. This in-house development strategy also allows for faster implementation of new features and improve- ments, ensuring the H400 remains at the forefront of audio technology.
Environmentally Friendly
Built from high-quality materials and components, the H400 is designed for durability and reliability, ensuring a long life, and minimizing the need for frequent maintenance. The SoundEngine 2 technology makes the H400 energy efficient, consuming minimal power while delivering top-tier performance. This technology, and the amplifier’s auto standby feature, reduces energy waste and environmental impact without compromising sound quality.
Streamlined Visual Design
Designed with simplicity and intuitive operation in mind, the H400 features a sleek, min- imalist front with two multifunctional knobs for source selection and volume control. The knobs can also be pressed to mute, pause, or navigate the device menu. The central display is clear and easy to read from a distance, showing only essential information. To maintain a clean and uncluttered appearance, the power button is discreetly located underneath the amplifier. This thoughtful design ensures that nothing distracts from the beauty of your audio setup.
