For Sale: Very clean Bel Canto Evo 2i Gen II Integrated Amplifier. I purchased this unit with a blown Tripath amp (quite common with the excellent sounding, but touchy TA3020 amps) . I pulled the Tripath amp section (one PCB) and used the unit as a remote controlled preamp for a long while. I then put in a Set of Hypex 400AD amp modules with power supplies and used it for about a year. Being happier with ICEPower than Hypex, I removed the Hypex units and dropped in a set of ICEpower 250A modules (existing amp transformer secondaries landed right in the 250A range). This worked perfectly for another year....now currently working with another setup entirely, so this unit stands idle...
I had a Harmony 650 programmed to do all the volume, switching, etc that the original remote would do - the original remote is included, but screen is a bit washed out, so I never used it...comes with remote charger / power supply also. Original boxes (double boxed) and I even have the original blown Tripath TA3020 amp PCB somewhere, you could repair and reinstall for all stock unit. These sell for some big bux on ebay....
Would like $675 + ship.

Bump - this unit is basically a Bel Canto PRE1 line stage combined with an ICEPower amp
Unit also has another available Single Ended preamp Output, and a XLR balanced input.

All ready to ROCK!
With the ICEpower amp modules, its sounds better (and more stable) than the original setup with the Tripath amp. I still have the original Tripath amplifier PCB/Amp section to send with this unit....
Again, sounds excellent - just prefer my Tubeamp.

Still available. The ICEPowers add a nice touch to the Bel Canto preamp and is far more reliable than the stock TA3020 based amp...will include the fried original TA3020 amp module board with functioning integrated amp....
