On/Off

The H190 amplifier is switched on and off 
with the power button, located on the un-
derside of the amplifier, towards the front of 
the unit. When powered up, the H190 takes 
a few seconds to calibrate. During this time, 
the outputs are muted.

NOTE: 

When powered up, the outputs are 

muted and the right hand part of the display 
flashes for a few seconds, indicating mute. 
This is normal, and is part of the start-up 
procedure.

NOTE: 

When the H190 has been switched off, 

wait 30 seconds before powering on again.  

Display

The left side of the display shows the se-
lected source input, while the volume value 
is shown on the right side of the display. A 
flashing volume value indicates the amplifier 
is in mute mode.

Headphone Output

Connect the 6.3mm headphone jack to 
the front of the H190. This activates the 
headphone volume control and mutes the 
speaker outputs. 

NOTE: Variable Line Output is still active.

Source Selector

The input source selector knob is on the left 
side of the front panel. 

 

 
Volume

The volume control knob is on the right 
side of the front panel. The volume level is 
indicated by a number between 0 and 99 on 
the right side of the display, with 0 being the 
mute level and 99 being max volume. The 
H190 powers up with a preset volume value. 
The volume level is adjusted by turning the 
volume knob clockwise or counter clockwise, 
or by using the Hegel remote control. 

 
Mute

Pressing the mute button on the Hegel 
remote control mutes the outputs on the 
amplifier. The volume number flashes to 
indicate that mute is on.  Press the mute 
button, or adjust the volume level, to switch 
mute off.
