Some of you might recall that I was using an Apt Holman + Phase Linear 400 combo to drive my Magneplanar MMG's.

A few months ago I replaced the PL with a NAD C270: this made for a smoother, more transparent sound. However I was feeling that more improvement was possible.

This week I listened the Bel Canto eV02i integrated -- WOW !! I've place my order. Detail, transparency, imaging, spatial reality such as I'd never heard before, are all there. And, BTW, the MMG's can take advantage of all of it.

By the way, if you're interested in Bel Canto, check out Everest Audio, http://www.everestaudio.com/index.htm, who gave me a great price. They'll ship anywhere in North America.
