So I just bought a Hegel H390 and

I am building a new system and I just bought a H-390.  It should arrive by the end of the week.  I want to get new to me speakers to go with it. So if you’ve have or have had a Hegel H-390 or a H-590,  what speakers under $10.000 sounded the best.  And I guess I should probably get some wires also.  Nothing crazy, but not zip cord.

Thanks.

So I went with a pair of KEF Reference 5’s. So far I’m liking them.  I will give them another 100 hours before I give the another good listening session.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

Spatial X-3’s. Check out the New Day Records YouTube channel for his review using the Hegel.

I very briefly thought about a pair of X-3’s. I had some open back speakers in the 80’s-90’s but without hearing the X3’s, I went for the KEF. Thst I was able to listen to with a Hegel Integrated Amplifier.

All the best.

Love the Hegel H390, I've heard it and oh yeah it's good.

H390 is a very even handed sounding amp with plenty of drive and should pair well with almost anything.  I used it with Joseph Audio Perspectives and it was excellent.
