Bel Canto grew from the quest to achieve the ultimate musical satisfaction from an audio system. This goal began with the discovery of the inherent sonic qualities and musical performance potential of a nearly forgotten technology, the single-ended triode amplifier. The ability of this type of amplifier to recreate the musical experience and evoke a powerful emotional response in the listener, much like the live event, inspired the development of the SET line of amplifiers through the ultimate expression of this technology. The SET amplifier was developed as both a cornerstone for a modern audio system and as a reference tool to explore newer technologies that delivered the single-ended triode amplifier's uniquely musical presentation.

For the better part of a decade this quest continued and has resulted in the birth of a line of fine audio components in Bel Canto's eVo digital amplifiers and matching components. These components share the inherent musical qualities of the reference amplifier, while achieving a new level of value and performance using the latest analog and digital technologies. The eVo200.2 is the first digital amplifier in this new line and represents a significant advancement in home entertainment technology.

The eVo200.2 presented in the following pages is designed to maintain very high value because of both the quality of design and manufacturing and also the timelessness of each component's musical performance.
