Can I play files from a connected USB HD when the EVO is not connected to a network?
This is not possible as the use of the StreamMagic app is required to be able to play local files from a connected USB HD.
Please note that it is strongly recommended that the EVO is connected to a network at all times.
What USB HD’s will the EVO support?
The EVO will read large capacity hard drives connected to the USB Media input. However, some larger capacity drives may require their own power supply, as the player's USB port may not provide enough power for the drive to function.
The EVO will support USB hard drives which are formatted to FAT32, NTFS and exFAT.
The primary function of the EVO is as a network music player. The USB port is intended for convenient connection of USB thumb drives. As such, we cannot guarantee compatibility with all USB HDDs.
Does the EVO support use of 4Ω and 8Ω speakers?
The EVO 75 and EVO 150 support the use of both 8Ω and 4Ω speakers. The expected power output when using speakers with these impedance ratings are as follows:
EVO 150:
150W into 8 Ohms
250W into 4 Ohms
EVO 75:
75W into 8 Ohms
150W into 4 Ohms
