Had the amp-only version once.  Won't do that again.  Not a great amp.  A little strident.

i haven't heard this amp specifically, but the ICE Gain Cells have not been well received throughout the audiophile world.  Lots of clarity, a little threadbare in the upper midrange, and bass a tad soggy.  Best said they have a character of their own that may appeal to many listeners, but one should definitely listen before purchase.  There's a lot of potential in the design and several modders like Underwood have taken on improving the application.

Thanks. I should probably hold off. There's also a new listing on Agon for a Bel Canto eVo 2i Gen II. Oh, if only money was not an issue.

Any opinions of the Bel Canto?
