No surprises, another 5 star review, can't upset Cambridge Audio, AKA Julian Richer, he does after all have a massive advertisement contract with the magazine.

That’s a very tired and unproven insult, isn’t it? You’ve obviously heard it yourself and decided it isn’t deserving?

Well said!

Does this play gapless? either natively or through the stream magic app? Also i assume it can shuffle play the songs on my NAS?

 

[rvdoever]

Just tested this with my Evo75, no to both when testing from both NAS and local attached USB. Not 100% sure about the gapless feature, couldn't find a good example of a track flowing over into the next one.
Personally I wouldn't want to have it shuffle play between Lamb of Gold, Diana Krall and Mahler, but that's perhaps just me 🙂.

I wish to connect two powered subs to my soon to be acquired EVO 150. Can I use the preamp outputs or are they shorting jacks? What are my best options otherwise?

 

[rvdoever]

These are all cinch outs, so not shorting jacks. The subout is single mono, perhaps you could split this to the 2 subs?
The better option is probably to use the preamp outputs, if your subs at least allow for setting a low-pass filte.

Thanks for the reply, rv. I had previously been using speaker level connections but with what I know now I will give it a go with the preamp outs. The subs do indeed have variable crossovers and ARC, so I am good to go when my EVO amp arrives next month. Cheers!

Hello, now the review of the Evo S speakers is missing, which are very compact, have very tight measurements to be able to put them in many places and have a good 6 1/2 "wofer, at first glance it looks good if there is luck and whathifi check back soon, thanks.
