160Hegel and DNLA . . .


In January I bought a Hegel H360 integrated amp. I was drawn to it because of its specs--especially the DLNA connectivity. Over the last (almost) year, I have enjoyed the quality of the sound and the elegance of the design, but the amp has regularly disconnected from the network. In recent weeks, it has gotten worse. I've reached out to Hegel and they are complexed, as am I.

Can any of you H160 or H360 users experienced this problem, too? Or have any other DLNA network folks seen anything like this, too? Thanks in advance.

I have talked about a possible design flaw in Hegel amplifiers in other threads. I received verbal abuse from Hegel. It seems like your case is muted confirmation of my earlier observations. You are fortunate their response to you was benign.
Playing spotify off my laptop sometimes the usb connection will cause a momentary dropout but otherwise so far so good.
Never had an Ethernet issue or AirPlay as it was used daily for at least a year. This really surprises me to be honest. Sorry to hear nonetheless.
