Power amps: Bel Canto v.s. PS Audio Hybrid


I´m seeking your opinions on the pros and cons of two power amps, i.e. Bel Canto Design eVo 200.2 v.s. the recently released PS Audio Hybrid Class A. Both look promising on paper and fit my budget.
Does anyone have experience, opinion, expertise, advise or just plain, unsupported preference?

Thanks for your input.

It seems that the PS Audio amp is at least a beeter deal, if not simply a better amp when compared to the best in this priceclass.
The eVo 200.2 has been replaced by the eVo2 which is an improvement, at least in terms of power supply. Has anyone compared a production PS HCA-2 with a production eVo2 yet?
I think the changes to the eVo line should improve the sound, the changes were a bigger transformer. As well the eVo's are bridgable.

should be interesting to hear the 2 of them !

I have heard the PS audio amp in my system, but not the Bel Canto. All I can tell you is that the PS audio is very good, and very powerful, its efficient and smoooth. Very detailed and just a little bright. I know you can try it for 30 days risk free, don't know if Bel Canto has the same deal, probably not. I would say try the PS and keep it if you like it. I have heard the criticisms on these forums that the Bel Canto uses a cheapie chip (search here), and it appears that the PS audio uses a newer design, but I cannot substantiate this.
- good luck.
The new PS Audio started shipping the HCA-2 amp this month
and I noticed that suddenly the Evo 200.0 started to show up more and more on the used market. Does anybody know if this is the reason or just coincidence?
