Hi,
In an effort to downsize I'm thinking about integrated amps. I've read about Hegel but never heard any. I would use a pair of Polk 703 and a sub. The Rost looks about right. Anybody using Hegel with 703s?

    Since I moved from two systems to one there's lots of stuff. Now have a tv, tivo and the hifi. The hifi is 11 components plus the modem and the wifi router. I need to play flac files, have a great dac with xlr outs,use a Sonora Ultrarender. Play fm radio, tv sound, vinyl. Would like to have fixed outputs for the House amp. The Rost can do all but fixed outs. Just thinking better WAF. I need to use 2 power conditioners plug everything in to ac! Its a lot.

    Integrated 2.1 with room correction and dac. This one has all the optional boards hope it sounds as good as the bat combo

    Looks like a fine Co. and Integrated design, inside and out!
