Integrated amps- Hegel H100 or Vincent SV-237?

I have a pair of Maggie MMG and I love these little speakers. I am using my friend's Vincent SV-236 MKII to drive the Maggies and the speakers sound great. I also heard the Hegel integrated amps sound very good, too. I now have quotes for both SV-237 and H100 at the same price range. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hegel is getting aggressive on their prices. I saw H100 for $1,695 new today. Anybody wants to share his/her experience with H100?

Went with Hegel H200 eventually. Received the amp tonight and listened to a few familiar songs. Very happy with the decision so far.

There is actually no change in Hegel's "list price" only strategy. That's just one dealer that apparently has a temporary overstock. Other Hegel dealers are still only selling at list. Two friends of mine checked with their local dealers and no budging on price.

I contacted the dealer. They happened to receive a few H100 at the lower price. My understanding is that Hegel is going to discontinue H100. That's probably another reason why the H100's are being sold at discount price. Anyway, I have enjoyed my H200 a lot and I think I will stick with it for a while.
