Speaker or amplifer


I have to choose between a Sonus faber sonetto v g2 or a Hegel h400. I have listened to both of them and came away very impressed.My system consists of a Sonus faber iii and Cronus magnum iii. I like the speakers that I have would the hegel h400 be the best upgrade for my system.

Yes I can demo a hegel h 400 at home with my sonetto iii. I’m looking for more slam in my music.This my last upgrade for my system I like the sound of my tube amplifier. Feel like I’m missing something with this amplifier. I don’t know if a will get the sound from the sonetto v g2 with the amplifier I own.

I tested a Rogue and a Hegel amp, same speakers. The Hegel was the best amp I have ever heard, like I had my ears replaced. No idea about the SFs

Based on your described goals, I would definitely go with the Hegel H400 upgrade.  The Hegel will give you everything you desire and more!!!

That is great information on Hegel amplifier I will have to demo Hegel h400 with my sonetto iii speakers. I have heard the Hegel h400 with Sonus faber speakers.That was the best amplifier that I heard to my ears.What Hegel amplifier did you listen to with the sonetto iii.

If you try the Hegel and you find you still prefer the overall sound of the Rogue the best thing to do would be to get two subwoofers that will improve bass, dynamics, as well as imaging and 3D soundstage.  Best of luck.
