I have owned the Eversolo DMP-A6 for two weeks now. The DAC is more refined than the one in my AVR, the streamer is great and the user interface is easy to use and navigate. I rip all my music on to an SSD and then plug the SSD into the Eversolo. Instant music server. I have a respectable collection of high-res downloads and the Eversolo plays them flawlessly. Sounds amazing. A definite upgrade in my setup. Would highly recommend it to anyone. Keep up the good work, Audio Advice! 🍺

I bought the a6 when it was the only one they offered. I have it mated to a Gustard R26 r2r DAC so it’s only being used as a streamer. I primarily use Roon for music streaming and it’s a solid endpoint. The engineers at Eversolo have thought of everything and they have pushed out some very nice firmware updates since I purchased it. Highly recommended.

It's great to see innovation like this from a new company. I'm glad that they included an HDMI output for multi-channel DSD. That alone makes it one of the best streamers for home theaters.

Perfect timing! Thanks for the reviews. Will be purchasing this from you soon! 👌

These units look perfect for a setup like mine! So excited to see EverSolo and Audio Advice team up! 🙌

I’m excited to try the DMP-A8.

I have the Eversolo DMP-A6 Master Edition and do love it. I bought it to replace a Pioneer Elite N-50 DAC/Streamer (which, BTW, had AKM DACs) that I was using for a good 10 or so years, but it crapped out on me this past summer (would just refuse to boot up, even though it would power on). I went to go and research something to replace the N-50 although I tried to get it repaired, but Pioneer said they no longer support that unit. All the research including watching many videos on KZfaq and reading many reviews and it seemed the Eversolo DMP-A6 Master Edition was the "one to get" if you can afford it, based on price to performance. I ended up buying the DMP-A6 Master Edition near the end of August 2023 from Summit HI-FI (the only dealer at the time that I could find that had them and was shipping to the US) and have loved it ever since. I've also installed a 4 TB SSD into my unit. However, if that DMP-A8 was available at the time, I more than likely would've gotten that (I can afford it), especially since it did have the AKM DACs which I really like the sound of. However, I do still love the DMP-A6 ME. I am thinking of getting the LPS upgrade that I've seen recently for it. Also to add, the Eversolo guys are actually really good on responding to feedback. I don't know how much I am responsible for the addition of the spectrum analyzer display on the DMP units, but I sent an email to them asking about adding that and they said they would consider it. A month or so later, I get an update and there it is! I also found some bugs in the CD Ripper that I informed them about and they indeed fixed them.

I have the standard Dmp-a6 and love it. Great addition to my setup and would highly recommend it.

Definitely impressed with the interface on these!

Love your user guides. I used your Dirac one for my theater and it made set up so much better knowing your tips and tricks. Glad you did on for Eversolo.

Amazing review! Liked, subscribed ! I learned so much as I've never had a streamer for a source before, now looking to get my first, and this video is brilliantly informative.

Love the " baylenced " audio cables. Got to say, I have XLR and RCA out on my A6 ME and the RCA has always sounded a bit rounder, fatter, open. The XLR sound more focused but tends to lose a tiny bit of atmosphere and space. The difference is minimal but i've tried this going out to 2 different preamps.

I own the Dmp A6 ….I absolutely love it

Got my A8 from you guys. Btw, where’s the settings guide you said you send to us?

That DMP-A8looks very capable. I've read great things about it.

It's hard to imagine the A8 having even more detail than the A6 Master Edition. I have always thought my system was highly revealing with some very expensive ribbon tweeters in the system, but adding the A6 Master Edition to my system a few weeks ago opened up detail I didn't know existed. It is hard to fathom how the A8 can step it up from there. I almost feel like I have too much detail now. Hard to imagine that you can have too much detail, but I think I am on the cusp of it.

the best review on these Eversolo products on YT,

Love the display options!

Excellent review. I am in the market for a Streamer/DAC and have been thinking about the Eversolo DMP-A6 Master Edition, DMP-A8 or HiFi Rose RS250. My integrated amp has a tube buffered pre-amp so I was wondering if the A8 with AKM DAC's might be a little bit too much of a good thing with it being a bit warm by design. Any advise?

I have the Gold version and I am totally blown away from the sound quality in combination with my fm300 from china. Music in Wav/Flac from SSD is georgous.

Hi, awesome review. Please advise how i would connect the Eversolo DMP a6 to my intergrated Marantz pm 7200 amplifier that has a preamplifier built in. Your feedback would be highly appreciated.

Good detail on the various models. Thanks.

@ Audio Advice Brother you are very late on EverSolo - yet thank you for this video. This is a great product. I have the EverSolo DMP A6 - Master Edition, DMP -A8 And the EverSolo AMP F-2. Lovely, lovely product , I am in love with EverSolo.I Very highly recomend this Name brand EverSolo.

Thanks for the great review... If I want to use them just as a streamer, which one should I choose?

The Anthem MCA 225 Gen 2 amp is ~$2300. I’m wondering if you think there would still be an audible difference in the A6 vs. the A6 ME using a $1000 amp like the Cambridge Audio CXA-81? I plan to purchase the Geshelli Labs J2 DAC, so I wasn’t considering the A8. Thanks for any input.

The only big feature that is missing is a Phono Input, at least on the A8 model.

hello …. very good video… I wanted to know if it plays Dolby Atmos format from Apple Music or Tidal. Greetings from 🇨🇱

I'm extremely new to this market, but this caught my eye. I currently have a Pioneer receiver/amp that I run a surround sound setup with Klipsch speakers. Is this something that I could run with this receiver, or would I need to pick up just an amp for it? Thanks, sorry for the noob questions.

Hi, I am deciding if I will buy an A6 Mater or a A8, the budget is not the problem, my main point is that i will use the streamer connected with may Receiver Anthen 1140. I saw that the A6Master has an HDMi output and A8 doesn’t have. The quality of music will be the same connect by HDMI or Optical? Even my stream service provides Dolby Atmos? The IIS output can be connected as HDMI ? Thanks a lot for your attention.

I'm considering the A8 so this was exactly what I was looking for. Can you tell me. Could I have a coaxial connection to my DAC at the same time as an unbalanced out to my subwoofer? at the moment I am having to use a ' Y ' splitter after my RME ADI 2. I think that this would allow me to use the crossover settings of the A8 . To be honest the other streamer I am considering is the Moon mind 2 so the screen and subwoofer controle will tip the balance if I have understood it right.

I had to decide between A6-Master Edition or DAC-Z8. Choosed the DAC-Z8. Though I originally wanted a Streamer with Apple Music Bit-Perfect. Well, I think I‘m fine with it. Streaming Tidal via Bluesound Node 2i or Apple Music via Apple TV 4K or plug in iPad/iPhone via USB directly to the Z8. Saved me 600€ 😊 And the Z8 has the same clocks as the master edition and an even better DAC-Chip. The Headphone Amp is nice, but to weak for my 300 Ohm Sennheiser HD800S. I drive it by Sennheiser HDVD800. I can confirm the high built-quality of the Z8. Eversolo is highly recommended. I think the prices of their stuff will rise in the next coming years.

I'm kind of bummed that there is no headphone support. What would one suggest to get to go along these EverSolo units so that I can utilize my headphones? (Both wired and wireless)

Will the a6 master edition be good enough for kanto tuks i think the a8 might be too big

I am trying to decide between the Hifi Rose, the A8, and Wiim Ultra? Is there a huge difference between them? I am going to guess so because of the vast price difference?

Did I hear you correctly when you said that all 3 units can output multi channel dsd ? Is that via the hdmi ? I thought only the A6 could allow for home theater use or multichannel vs. only 2 channel. So how do you set up the A8 for multichannel?? Thx !

Good info!

I just bought the A6 ME from you guys. I was curious how could I integrate a 2.1 system with it? I don't want to run though the subs first. I wasn't sure how I could get an LFE signal from the A6 as the L&R is taking up the RCA outputs.

Hello, which one of the DMP A6 would fit better an Onkyo rz50 with two Wharfedale diamond 9.5 speakers? Thanks

Is it possible to use A8 as a Rooncore and endpoint? So did you get to the bottom of this as you promised? It's a very important question.

what do you think about add this to my vintage system, I have a SANSUI AU 717 / integrated amp and JBL L82 Classic

Hey, I'd love to hear what you think. I have a system made up of a Conrad Johnson amplifier and preamplifier and Sonos Faber speakers - Amati Homage. I am debating which model to choose from the three because I don't need an additional preamplifier like the a8 has, but I am looking for a model that will satisfy me and match the level of the system. Is the difference between the a6 and a8 so significant and worth the investment? Thanks

Is it possible to use A8 as a Rooncore and endpoint?

I have an A6 master edition. Not sure it’s worth upgrading to the A8 though. Doesn’t look like there’s much of a hardware difference.

Whats different between DMP-A6 and Master edition?

As a streamer only any reason to get anything over the 6? Master or 8 sound better as a streamer only?

I had the Blue Sound Node and then I purchased the A6, I use a Chord Hugo TT2/mscaler combo for my DAC, so i only use the node / A6 as a digital streamer transport, the difference was astounding, the A6 is on a completely different level to the Node, I would say that in my configuration the DMP-A6 is 20-30% better than the Node, in terms of sound quaility, maybe even more. I have also now upgraded the power supply in the DMP-A6 and that has improved it further. The best sound I could get from the Node was using USB to the DAC, however with the Eversolo DMP-A6, the best digital output to my mscaler is Optical, even my wife can tell the difference !!

Forgive my ignorance is this a well established brand and is the product reliable?

Wish it had a headphone amp. Would make a perfect pre amp.

I’m heavily considering getting one of these but the amps I run from Sonance don’t offer a digital input, only rca. Will I still hear the difference between an A6/A8 and my current Sonos port setup?

I just got the DMP-A8 from Audio Advice but did not get any tips and tricks.

I would like to see a powerb amplifier thats fits the dmp-a8

I thought the a8 lacked the multichannel HDMI output capability

Which would be better if used as the main device for drying music from a hard drive? a6 and a6me? there is a big difference in sound, is there any reason to overpay for 6me?

Never was able to pair my DMP-A6 Master Edition to my smartphone. I suspect it's because I'm stealing my neighbour's wifi. Also, you should mention aftermarket linear power supply mods for the A6.

This dude is smart

Is there a built in Chromecast?

Think I will be going with the HiFi Rose 150b

Play Dolby Atmos from amazon music or Tidal?

Even mentioning Bluesound Node disqualified the complete overview.

Is the A8 better than rose 250?

I hope they sell in mass ....and that it forces Hifi Rose to lower their prices.

Most streaming services have jitter not in all songs , now if you use 2000 € eversolo its some jitter ? On speakers I use av amp and i have jitter not in all songs and not net problem i have 200 mbs Thank you

The touch screen does not expand to the edges top, bottom or sides. There's a wide black border surrounding the functional touch area. Would be interesting to know if the stated 6 inch measurement represents the active usable area or the entire face of the 'screen' itself with the black border. It's a little misleading to showcase the touch screen going right to the edges when in fact it doesn't. Maybe a bit of accuracy would go a long way more in line with the aesthetics of the screen and the unit.

You never addressed the core of what serious audiophiles want to know; is there any difference AS A STREAMER. You compared them as source/DAC's out to a power amp.

The aesthetics are nice however the use of brushed aluminum for AV componenets (imho) needs to stop. They get dusty & are hard to clean. The old Sunfire cinema grand amps were terrible in this regard!

I do not understand who like to sit near a streamer when listening music… i would prefer a good app for phone or tablet… no screen at all, and a significant price drop?

No headphone amp/jack, no buy.

Sorry but all of these need power amps. They all have amazing tech and streaming capabilities. So why the F$&K is there no trigger output on the A6s so now all the tech but you need to walk up to the system and turn on the power amps? That's just sad

Sales pitch rather than a review.

Why do you have to talk so fast. Need a bathroom break. For those of us not familiar with some of the features and trying to learn, you’re making it difficult to follow along.
