After auditioning several other top bands of integrated amps, I selected the Hegel H590 to drive my incredible, power hungry, Revel Salon 2 speakers. I've been driving my Revel Salon 2 speakers with a Hegel H590 for several years now with phenomenal results!!! Based on my experience, I strongly believe that Hegel integrated amplifiers are some of the best values on the market when it comes to price to performance. Incredible gear!!! Happy listening.
Over the years, I've owned Luxman, Accuphase, and several other great integrated amps, and the one that I ended up keeping for the long-haul, was the Hegel H590 integrated amp. Made in China or not, makes no difference to me. The H590's overall performance bested all the others in my audio system. Happy listening.
