Tomorrow’s hi-fi, today
With Evo 75, 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 onboard – all you need to do is add speakers to enjoy superb high-resolution audio quality from one elegant, discreet box.
Until Hypex NCore changed the game, Class D amplification was only about compactness and electrical efficiency — but Hypex NCore also offers obvious superiority where clarity, resolution and outright musicality are concerned.
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.
Great connectivity
Thanks to its suite of digital and analogue inputs, Evo is ready for you to add your favourite sources – a turntable, say, or 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.
No matter where your music’s coming from, Evo will make it sound its best.
Easy to set up, easy to use
It couldn’t be simpler. Plug Evo into the mains, wire it to your speakers. Then fire up your favourite music streaming service on a smartphone, tablet or wherever 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.
Thanks to Evo’s big 6.8 inch high resolution display, you can even enjoy bright, clear and detailed album artwork when you’re listening to a streaming service.
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.
Of course, you might prefer the app of your favourite music streaming service – if that’s your preference, no problem. Evo will be just as responsive to your inputs and commands.
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.
Free your headphones
As well as featuring a 3.5mm output for headphones, Evo is also a Bluetooth transmitter – so if you’d rather do your private listening on wireless headphones, Evo has you covered.
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.
Complete control
Evo is intuitive and straightforward to operate, no matter if you’re using its full-function remote control, its simple and elegant control app, or the physical controls and big, bright, detailed display on its fascia.
Neat and easy placement
Just 305mm wide, Evo will sit neatly wherever you need it to. But thanks to its beautiful design and all-around good looks, it really deserves centre-stage.
Minimal, timeless design
When Ged Martin sat down in our London studio to design Evo, he was determined to sketch a product design that will endure for many years. Ged knows simplicity is the most elegant aspect of industrial design, and Evo demonstrates his mastery of form and line.
He designed a product that looks classically timeless.
Choice of side panels included
Evo’s use of premium materials includes a choice of side panels, designed to accentuate the timeless simplicity of Evo’s design and compliment your lifestyle.
Walnut wood: Our story started with the iconic P40 amplifier. So, using the P40’s wood trim as inspiration, Ged incorporated beautiful, tactile walnut side-panels into his elegant design.
Richlite black: Also included in the box are textured black side panels made from Richlite, an innovative new material made primarily from recycled paper.
Voiced in London
Even the best components don’t deliver incredible sound all by themselves. Our engineering team spent hundreds of hours in our London laboratory, poring over every detail of the way Evo makes music until they were completely satisfied.
Because if our engineers aren’t satisfied, they don’t think you will be either.
