This is the latest and greatest of all the EVO amps: Evo 2 Gen 2.
To my ears and the ears of others in the audio forums, it is more musical and involving than Bel Canto's ICE-based amps (s300 and m300s), and I compared all three of these amps in my system at length. It delivers 120 watts into 8 ohms, yet it draws only 15 watts at idle, so you can leave it on all the time without worry about electric costs.
I have two of these that I use (in mono mode), and I am selling the newer one (the later serial number) because I bought small monitor speakers and the extra power of two amps is unnecessary. The amp can be used as stereo or mono, has both single ended RCAs and balanced XLR connections, and has the orginal box and manual.
This was a factory produced Gen 2 amp, not a factory upgrade to Gen 2. It is sleek-looking, very cool running, and totally flawless. Since it's a heavy amp, I would be willing to travel within a 50 mile radius of the New York metro area to save on shipping costs. Otherwise, we can split shipping costs and paypal fees.
I am a long-time member of audiogon and ebay, and have 100% positive feedback on both. Send me a message for my user names.

I will consider trades for amplifiers of comparable value.
