Bel Canto evo's

Can I get some comments in regards to how Bel Canto evo amplifiers compare to quality linear amplifiers such as the Odyssey Stratus, PASS or equal. I remember BCs being the hot ticket when they were new but seemed to have cooled in popularity over time. Are the digital amplifiers at a decidedly disadvantage in some applications or with some speakers? Or, maybe just a little too much money for the watts? Will the digial revolution succeed?

Nealhood,

I have not heard any of those but if you told me one
of them cost 30g's i still wouldent trade my EVO6 for
it. I like it that much. I have heard plenty of others
and nothing came close yet. It just sounds like music to
me and to me thats what its all about.. To be honest with
you im surprised more people at this site arent running
them they are a BARGAIN especially if you can find a used
one.

And No i dont work for them although i wish i did i could
get a employee discount then. Here's a link to pretty new
review.

Morasp,

I been looking for recomendations on PWR cords thanks
for mentioning. I was also told by someone to try the
Eichmann Xpress cords. They are what the BC guys are
running on their own sytems. Is the cap upgrade something
that is effective for EVO2 as well as the 200.2? I know
they did change the PS section for the EVO2-6.

Thanks...

Thanks...

I have not looked inside mine yet but i will. Sounds
like the caps are aranged in a pretty typical config
hopefully they are hitting the pwr plane at the 100 with
only surface connections thru the 10 & 1 after that to the module. I will take a look...

Thanks..
