More Hegel Integrated Amps Now Roon Ready
Hegel, the Norweigan hi-fi component manufacturer that is rapidly increasing in popularity, has announced its H390 and H590 integrated amplifiers have now received Roon Ready certification from Roon Labs.
Following the Roon Ready update for H120 and H190 earlier this year, Hegel now has a full lineup of Roon Ready integrated amplifiers. The StereoNET Applause Award-winning H390, and the H590 have received high remarks from hi-fi reviewers and users alike. While they sound great, they also feature a very capable DAC and many different streaming options. With Roon Ready, these amplifiers have become even more versatile.
Roon is a rich and engaging way to browse, organise, and listen to music. Artist photos, credits, bios, reviews, lyrics, tour dates, and composers are automatically located and interconnected by links to build a surfable digital magazine. Roon is also a multi-room, multi-user networked audio platform; it offers bit-perfect playback, DSD and PCM upsampling features.
In our StereoNET review of the H3980 Integrated Amplifier, Rafael Todes concluded:
The DAC and streamer are very decent, but the amp shines with seriously high-end sources via its line inputs. It's a fully functional, svelte looking product that does a lot very well, and as such, is worthy of recommendation; hear it if you can.
The smaller sibling, H190 Integrated Amplifier, is currently available for a 7-day home trial, with 1000 more reasons why you should consider it.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
