Bel Canto eVo2i integrated amp 120/200 wpc 8/4 Ohms

For sale, a Bel Canto eVo2i (series 1) integrated amp in very good condition. The face is perfect and there are just a couple of tiny defects on the top plate that are only visible in good lighting at the right angle. There are also a couple of minor scuffs on the sides.

The remote is not the original remote, I am including a 6 unit programmable remote sourced from Bel Canto that allows direct input selection, volume up/down and balance L/R. There is more functionality such as configuring the inputs that can be done with the buttons on the unit. I believe replacement remotes are still available from Bel Canto if you want the original matching remote.

The unit comes with the above mentioned remote and manual. I don't have the original box/packaging, but I will properly mummify it for safe shipping. I can include a generic power cord if you need one.

The shipping weight is 38 lbs, this unit is a beast!

This unit is internally configurable to operate on worldwide voltage. International buyers are welcome, but note, overseas shipping will be quite expensive. Email for a quote for USPS shipping.

For domestic US shipping, I prefer FedEx ground. I can ship UPS, it does cost about 10-15% more.

Paypal is accepted if buyer pays fees.

This unit operates flawlessly and sounds great. Here is an excerpt form the 2002 6moons review:

When, as reviewer or prospective owner, you're handed the final bill on the 2i, it doesn't add up. But it's not a deal but icebreaker kind of accounting error. Hence the capital "V" stands for victory - a cost/performance landslide that's chockfull of extreme user-friendliness and suave looks. And did I mention performance? It falls squarely into the preexisting award domain for the eVo amps and my personal esteem for the matching stand-alone preamp: Crystalline transparency; a tube-like midrange purity, naturalness of timbre and monster soundstaging without the bloom of valves; wonderful bass; and very extended yet silky treble that's never grating or dull but just right.

If you're shopping for an eVo, make sure you sample the integrated as well. Unless you have bears for speakers, you might likely repeat after me: 2i > eVo 200.2 + PRe1. With the $1,600 saved, approach your favorite local music seller and offer him this lump sum for 100 CDs, slightly discounted and tax assimilated. You'd not only make his day but your own. Definitive Blue Moon award material. Hand me that stamp! Now what should the caption read? Gimme a second to mull it over - my graphic artist sez it's gotta be short & sweet ...
