Serial number

Connection

To be able to use the amplifier’s network 
and streaming features, the amplifier needs 
to be connected to your local network. 
Connect your Hegel amplifier using an Eth-
ernet cable (not supplied) from the network 
connection (LAN - RJ45) port on the back of 
the amplifier, to your router. 

Streaming

AirPlay

When using AirPlay, you can send the music 
stream from an AirPlay compatible device 
to the Hegel device. All AirPlay compatible 
devices will detect the Hegel device in their 
list of AirPlay speakers.

When both devices are connected to the 
same network, the AirPlay icon will be dis-
played, and you can select the Hegel device 
as an AirPlay speaker. You are now ready to 
send the music stream to your amplifier.

Spotify Connect

When using Spotify Connect, you can send 
the music stream from Spotify to the Hegel 
device. 

Use your phone, tablet or computer as a 
remote control for Spotify. 
Go t

spotify.com/connect

 to learn how.

 

UPnP/DLNA

The amplifier can function as a Digital 
Media Renderer. This means that it can 
receive and play media files from a UPnP/
DLNA compatible media player. When us-
ing UPnP/DLNA streaming, you can send 
the music stream from locally stored files 
or music streaming services to the Hegel 
device. UPnP stands for Universal Plug and 
Play and is a widely used media stream-
ing protocol. That means it is supported 
by a host of products and applications. For 
details on how to set up your media player, 
please refer to the user manual supplied 
with the player. 

WARNING: When streaming to the Hegel 
device, always remember to check the 
player/device volume-setting before press-
ing play. The Hegel device will change its 
volume to the volume set in the player.
