    Why would you want to (unless you want mono mode performance)? H30 & P30 have the famed Toshiba transistors that many manufacturers / designers (including John Curl) sought. They ran out of them - that is part of reason for the launch.

    Yes, I expect it to have the new SoundEngine but that may not be reason enough to pay to upgrade.

    Re: Hegel H30A/P30A

    Of coarse, I bought a new H590 last week from a local dealer (sorry Mike) and read this before my new unit is 24 hours old, lol. I would have to pick between a trip to Australia or the new Hegel separates the vaca is gonna win and the H590 is an appreciable upgrade from the h360 driving the Blades.

    All that for (still?) some Chinese built products, I still remember the day many years ago when I questioned them on this with my H300... I've never seen anyone dodge the question as they did.
