Hegel H120 75W RMS Integrated Amplifier with Network Player - Hegel
Overview
The Hegel H120 is a step up from Hegel's entry-level integrated amplifiers, pairing a significantly larger power supply with the same digital section found in its larger siblings. It delivers 75 watts per channel with enough headroom to handle more demanding speaker loads, and its in-house designed DAC takes full control of the digital data stream for a clean, artifact-free sound. Built-in AirPlay, Spotify Connect, Roon Ready, and UPnP streaming make it a complete music system for anyone who listens primarily through digital sources.
Simcoe Audio Video Insight
The core of the H120 is really its digital section — it's built around the same DAC technology as Hegel's larger amplifiers, which is why it punches above its price point for digital streaming. Hegel's SoundEngine2 technology gives it a damping factor over 2000, delivering tight, controlled bass regardless of speaker load. All inputs can be configured for volume bypass, making it straightforward to integrate into a home theater system or alongside a separate streaming source.
Best for the Hegel H120: if you're adding it to an existing home theater setup, configure the relevant input for volume bypass so your AV processor retains full control of levels while the H120 just handles amplification.

Why the Hegel H120 Stands Out
In-House Designed DAC
Shares its digital section with Hegel's larger amplifiers, taking full control of the digital data stream for a clean, natural sound.
Hegel SoundEngine2
Hegel's patented feedback technology keeps distortion extremely low while delivering a damping factor over 2000 for tight, controlled bass.
Larger Power Supply
A significantly larger power supply than Hegel's entry-level amplifiers for more dynamic sound and better control of demanding speaker loads.
Built-In Streaming
AirPlay, Spotify Connect, Roon Ready, and UPnP streaming are built in, so the H120 works as a complete music system without any extra boxes.
Volume Bypass Inputs
Any input can be configured for volume bypass, making it easy to integrate into a home theater system or alongside another streaming source.
Buyer's Guide
Who It's For
- The Digital Streaming Listener: Wants a complete music system built around a high-quality in-house DAC.
- The Growing System Owner: Needs more power and headroom than an entry-level amplifier offers.
- The Home Theater Integrator: Wants volume-bypass inputs to work alongside an existing AV processor.
How It Compares
If you want Hegel's most accessible entry point into the lineup, the Hegel H95 offers the same core streaming features at 60 watts per channel.
