Hegel H400 Integrated Streaming Amplifier
Overview
The Hegel H400 is an integrated streaming amplifier, nicknamed Streamliner, that combines a 250-watt-per-channel amplifier, a bit-perfect DAC and a full streaming platform in one dual mono chassis. It's for listeners who want one component to stream from Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz or Roon, connect a TV and other digital sources, and still drive even hard-to-drive loudspeakers with control. It won the EISA Premium Streaming Amplifier award for 2024-2025.
The H400 is a Class AB design delivering 250 watts per channel into 8 ohms and stable down to 2-ohm loads. Its dual mono construction and symmetrical layout, Hegel's SoundEngine2 distortion correction and a damping factor of more than 4000 give a detailed, agile sound with both punch and finesse. It shares several features with Hegel's H600 reference integrated: the same dual mono design, the same streaming platform and a DAC based on the H600's.
Streaming covers Spotify Connect (lossless), Qobuz Connect, Tidal Connect, Roon Ready, Google Cast, AirPlay and UPnP, with multi-room playback through Roon, AirPlay and Google Cast. The Hegel Control app adds volume and input control, internet radio, podcasts and media server playback. On the front, two multifunction knobs handle source and volume, and press to mute, pause or navigate the menu, with the power button tucked underneath.
Simcoe Audio Video Insight
The H400 is easy to live with day to day. Automatic signal detection switches to a digital source as soon as it starts playing, and the TV remote function lets you control the amplifier with the remote you already use. Every input can be set to a fixed high volume, which makes it simple to pair with a home theatre processor or a multi-room system. The variable RCA output can feed a powered subwoofer or another amplifier.

Buyer's Guide
Who It's For
- The All-Source Streamer: Wants Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz and Roon in one box.
- The Demanding Speaker Owner: Needs real power and control into low impedances.
- The Home Theatre Integrator: Wants fixed-volume inputs for an AV processor.
How It Compares
The H400 shares its dual mono design, streaming platform and DAC foundation with Hegel's H600 reference integrated. Compared with the H190v, which delivers 150 watts per channel and adds an MM phono stage and headphone output, the H400 offers 250 watts per channel, Qobuz Connect, Tidal Connect and lossless Spotify, and USB playback up to 32/384 with DSD256.
