It's NOT the Hegel. Hegel amps are fantastic.
Sloppy, muted bass response on Hegel h190
Hi, I have a Hegel h190 integrated, a pair of Kef 104/2's from 1985 that have been rebuilt but I don't know whem, the speakers have new donuts and new silver Kef tweeter. I mostly use the sonus connect. Also I have a 15-year-old Sony sacd disc player. I'm getting low, sloppy bass when I play either cd or wifi. This is the second amp. The first one exhibited same issue. Same amps. New.
I only have one set of speakers. I am thinking perhaps a capacitor in Kefs? This amp should have solid punchy bass, but it is not there. Speaker cables are blue jean 10 ga banana plugs. IC are blue jean also. I am at a loss. I heard the demo Hegel played on these components and it was fabulous.
any thoughts? I hate to sell everything and start over, but I am at that point.
thank you
