About the Hegel A200

Analogue by intention

The A200 is Hegel’s new fully analogue integrated amplifier: no DAC, no streaming section, no digital inputs. Just a serious, carefully executed 150-watt amplifier stage built to give whatever you connect to it – a turntable, a separate streamer, a CD player, a DAC you already love – a stable, clean, powerful foundation to work from. Comparing the whole range? See how the A200 stacks up against all six current Hegel integrated amplifiers, including a full spec comparison, on our Hegel Integrated Amplifiers page.

The A200 shares its amplifier platform with the H200 – the two are built around the same 150W stage, one fully analogue, one with streaming and DAC built in.

Not sure whether the A200 or H200 is right for you? Hegel talks through both in this short overview.

Built on the same control

Stability down to 2-ohm loads and a damping factor of over 4,000 give the A200 firm control over demanding speaker loads – bass starts and stops with precision rather than blurring into the next note, and that control carries through the rest of the presentation.

Every input is analogue

Two balanced XLR inputs and two unbalanced RCA inputs cover high-quality external sources, with a fixed RCA output for a recorder or second system and a variable RCA output for a subwoofer or external power amp under the A200’s volume control. A high-quality headphone output is built in for private listening.

A phono stage worth using

Like the H200, the A200 includes a dedicated MM phono input based on the MM section of Hegel’s standalone V10 phono stage – hand-matched FET gain stages and carefully selected op-amps. In a fully analogue amplifier built around source flexibility, vinyl playback gets treated properly rather than as an afterthought.

Made to live with

Each input can be assigned a fixed volume level for home cinema integration, and the A200 can learn volume commands from a TV remote – useful if an external DAC or AV receiver is already part of the system and you want everyday control to work the way it always has. Startup and maximum volume limits prevent surprises, and display dimming is fully customisable.

Features

Power & amplification

150W per channel into 8 ohms

The same Class A/B amplifier platform used in the H200.

2-ohm stability

Stays composed into difficult, low-impedance speaker loads.

Damping factor >4,000

Tight control over bass drivers for precise, well-defined low end.

SoundEngine 2

Detects distortion at the point it occurs and cancels it before it reaches the rest of the signal path.

Sources

Dedicated MM phono input

Based on the moving magnet section of Hegel’s own V10 phono stage.

Balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs

Every input analogue, with room for multiple high-quality sources.

No DAC, no streaming, no digital inputs

Deliberately, so you choose your own front end.
