## Description

Product description Tomorrow's Hi-Fi Today With Evo 150, we’ve brought your audio past and present into the future. With outstanding Hypex NCore Class D amplification and our class-leading StreamMagic music streaming platform on board, all you need to do is add speakers to enjoy superb high-resolution audio quality from one elegant, discreet box. And thanks to its suite of digital and analogue inputs, as well as its high-quality digital-to-analogue convertor, Evo can be the heart of your hi-fi system for years to come. All-In-One Simplicity - Just Add Speakers Combining streaming smarts and high-class amplification in one box means Evo only needs wiring to mains power and to speakers to serve up thrilling sound quality. Streaming music from Evo means saying goodbye to metres of connection cables, and hello to intuitive, straightforward functionality in one sleek, good-looking box. Easy to Set Up, Easy to Use It couldn’t be simpler. Plug Evo into the mains and wire it to your speakers. Then, fire up your favourite music streaming service and connect to Evo using the app, Bluetooth or Evo’s built-in streaming service support. Pick a tune, press play and adjust the volume to your taste. StreamMagic App The StreamMagic app offers comprehensive control of the entire Evo system, plus access to the world’s most popular and highest-quality music streaming services. It’s clear, logical and stable - so Evo will do precisely what you want it to, rapidly and accurately, from wherever you are in your home.

Connectivity to Suit Your Needs Thanks to its suite of digital and analogue inputs, Evo is ready for you to add your favourite sources - a turntable, say, or a CD player - and build a wider system. Even video sources can join in. Just connect your TV’s HDMI ARC output to Evo’s ARC input and you'll be all set. No matter where your music’s coming from, Evo will make it sound its best. Bluetooth Convenience. HD Sound Quality Nothing’s easier or simpler than streaming via Bluetooth. Evo takes it to the max by using aptX HD Bluetooth - which is wireless, high-definition music streaming, with flawless transmission and incredibly realistic, convincing sound. Evo delivers all the wireless convenience you want, with none of the sonic compromises. Great British Sound Evo uses the very best components, such as ESS Sabre 32bit high resolution DACs - and then we bring every one of our 50+ years of audio know-how to bear. The result is the Great British Sound we are renowned for.

Review: The EVO 150 is 5 Star - I purchased the EVO 150 in early November and wanted to listen to it for a month or two before commenting. I actually don't usually comment on desertcart, or any other site, but after listening to the EVO 150 I wanted to leave some feedback. First, let me say I am no professional audiophile at all. I have always been searching for the perfect sound through separate devices over the years, always to be satisfied but not overwhelmed. I have spent a lot of money over the years with NAD, Denon, Marantz, Onkyo, etc. and I have demoed various speakers many times throughout the years. I have reached a time in my life that I am tired of separates and always tweaking my system. I just want to sit back and enjoy the sound. Second, I have given away all of my equipment, except for my speakers. I purchased Monitor Audio GS60's, sometime around 2009 in Piano Black, and I wanted to try to find a piece of equipment that would drive them properly. Trust me I was very hesitant that any one piece of equipment would be able to drive my speakers properly. However, I never had Cambridge Audio equipment and always wondered if they would match up good with my Monitor Audio speakers since they were both from England. So after a lot of research I decided to pull the trigger on the Cambridge Audio EVO 150. I chose the 150 for its increase wattage and flexibility. I plan on adding a turntable next. Again, I did not want a separate streamer, DAC, AVR, Amp, etc. I just wanted simplicity and good sound. Good sound would have been nice, however I am here to tell you the sound out of this unit is GREAT! My speakers have never sounded so good. I am shocked at the performance of the EVO 150. The sound is crisp and the separation of the various instruments and voices are amazing. For now I have been using the device 100% as a streaming device through Apple Music. I do have my settings on Hi-Res. The display on the EVO 150 shows I am streaming at 44.1kHz/16bit and the artwork is a joy to observe as various songs are played through this unit. All I can say is that after all of these years (ok I am 55 years old) I am 100% satisfied with the music being played from the EVO 150. I think the last time I felt this way was the first time I played a SACD of Pink Floyd through a surround system I had, but that's another conversation. I saw there was one person that gave this unit 1 star for the quality build. Ok maybe his was delivered in bad shape, but I have to believe that was an exception, not the norm. Cambridge Audio is known for high quality equipment and I believe my unit came triple boxed and packaged beautifully by Cambridge Audio. The 1 star is not a fair review because it had nothing to do with the sound the EVO 150 produces. I am trying not to sound like a Cambridge Audio "fanboy" but I will admit this one single piece of equipment has me streaming music I have not listened to in many years, and everything sounds better than I ever remember. As you can tell I am very satisfied with this purchase. Yes I was hesitant based on the price, but when compared to buying separates, I can honestly say I would have spent more on separate pieces, and I doubt the sound would have been as good.
Review: Very happy. Great amp that is extremely well designed! - No regrets. Money well spent -- I love this thing! My set up is Rega P6, Kef R3 Meta and Kef KC62 Sub. For me, this hits the sweet spot in almost every way.. I can not overstate how well the deign is... Extremely well thought out both functionally and visually. Also I truly underestimate how much of a difference the DAC would make -- it is fantastic... Streaming, "Radio" and HD tracks are significantly better now. The Amp can handle a lot and never feel like its staining. There app works very well too.. If i had to give a "negative" -- The App can probably be tweaked a little by adding a few features for me, but marginal type of changes. The App is very good, but the design of the Amp and Remote set such a high bar that the App's design feels slightly less thought out. Overall bottom line: I highly recommend this Amp.

### ⭐⭐⭐ A Good Amp -- But I Have Some Reservations
*by J***N on January 26, 2024*

I purchased this unit directly from Cambridge Audio, so this review will not carry a "Confirmed Purchase" tag. This is basically a very good amp. However, the upper partials of the sound are output as so bright that they almost border on the shrill. I had to purchase a subwoofer to balance the high/low spectrum. And I was disappointed with the layout of the connections area on the back of the unit. I could no longer use my usual "banana" plugs to connect my speakers because the power-cord plug of this unit is totally in the way. Instead I had to do it the old-fashioned way -- strip insulation off the speaker wire and then insert bare copper into the unit’s apertures. Pretty retro for a $3,000 component.
