Jay, I am a 66yo guy who sold audio in the 70s. I have been an audiophile for over 50 years. The reason I bought this unit is because of the HDMI connector to play my large SACD, .DSF files for both stereo and multi channel. It works great and is a great feature.

So its basically to the input of an Oppo unit or AVR with multichannel analog inputs from a multichannel sacd player and then you can do 5.1 sacds and dolby or dts discs/files? I have a 7.1 multichannel hdmi dac and about 20 multichannel albums, but i sold off my center and surrounds, i'd be interested in doing going back to surround if the Eversolo has a library or an app with multichannel music/concerts. Otherwise i wouldn't do it for just my current multichannel collection.

Hello Jay from Charlotte NC, I received my Eversolo DMP-A6 a week ago and have been streaming all sorts of music to my Audio Research 5se reference preamp to the Zen Decware and out to Cornwall Fours + SVS subs. It was easy to set up. The screen is a breeze to use. It’s really a lot of fun with the whole world of music right at my fingertips within a couple of seconds. I just really love THIS ability over my Vinyl. Now, if this were a comparison video between this streamer and my nice Audio-Technical with high-end cartridge, there’s simply no comparison. The moment the diamond hits the groove it far exceeds the streamer in purest sound. Does that matter to me? Sort of, but there’s so much more the streamer offers me for exploring music and the sheer convenience I will definitely keep this it! I really do like it and it’s a great addition to my system. My suggestion to the most critical of music listeners out there is to take a chill pill and just go ahead and get this and enjoy the music! I continue to enjoy your videos. Thank you for your work Best, Mark

I sold my gen2 Bluesound Node2i for $400 and used sales funds towards purchase of the Eversolo DMP-A6. Pound for pound value, build quality, screen, interface and app functionality was a no brainer. Plus out the box experience is super easy to use, great sound, and packed with features that would make justifying the bigger boys cost a second thought. Perfect no but this hit the sweet spot for majority of consumers that offers allot.

Hi Jay. I've had the DMP-A6 (standard edition) for about 3 months now and I really like it. It's pretty versatile with a lot of functionality. I knew when buying it, that the internal DAC wasn't going to be my endgame DAC. My premonitions were right. It sounded a bit bright in my system so I bought the SMSL VMV D1SE that you, Goldensound and A british audiophile reviewed. Your assessments across the board were spot on, so kudos on that. I could not hear any difference between the DAC filters on the DMP-A6 unlike on the D1SE. They are very distinguishable as are the sound color modes you mentioned in that review. Anyway, I think that the DMP-A6 is good value for money. It’s a streamer, DAC, NAS, CD ripper and a radio based on an Android platform which allows for third party APPs (Unfortunately, I couldn’t get Radiooooo to work. It would have been cool to have the world map on the screen to navigate with.). As nothing is perfect, it does have its downsides besides those you mentioned. Like no hardware support for using some of the digital inputs while using an external DAC. I couldn’t run toslink from my TV to the DMP-A6 with my D1SE. Inputs coincide only with certain outputs. So I ran it through the D1SE. It’s no biggy, but still. There are also minor software glitches here and there. I just hope that they keep updating the firmware and software untill most of these issues are resolved. Reading through the forums, there are varying compatiblity issues regarding external DACs and CD drives and other various quirks, but for the most part it’s a good product and I’m not disappointed. It does what I need and does it pretty well. There will always be caveats when trying to make a pretty much an all-in-one device. Thanks for the sample rate tip. I had an inkling that it sounds better and you confirmed that. If I remember correctly, I read somewhere that MQA render only sounds best.

I'd like to see a rundown of streamers at different price points just used as transports. From the Wiim up to the lowest end Auralic. See where the diminishing return is. I've got the ifi zen, but the software frequently disconnects Tidal after listening for a while. I'm running the ifi into an ares 2 to 2400mkii. I think my setup is a little too on the warm side.

Thanks for a great review. I really wanted to keep this unit. My unit was freezing up so had to return it. It is a good looking unit with excellent software. HOWEVER, I use an external DAC, the Gustard R26. As a stand alone streamer, I don't hear any upgrade in sound from my Wiim Pro to the DMP-A6. The real kicker for me, as mentioned in this review, is that the DMP-A6 does not have an EQ. The Wiim Pro does. I love the ability to adjust the sound to my taste. If the DMP-A6 adds an EQ to it's software, I think I will be picking one up again!

Good to know you hear no difference in audio quality when connecting to an external DAC, when compared to the Wiim Pro. I'm using a Wiim Pro connected to a Denafrips Ares II, but have been tempted by the DMP-A6's looks and it's ability to add in an m.2 SSD. However, it's so much more expensive than the Wiim Pro. For me, the main drawback of the Wiim Pro is lack of a USB connection to an external DAC, and lack of an additional USB port to be able to plug in a USB key.

Great review Jay... and I've seen them all! I've had the DMP since its release and love it. One feature you skipped was the ability to rip CD directly onto the internal or external hard drive. I recently did an A/B with my AresII and I prefered the DMP DAC. I used the coax output, but since you recommend the USB output, I'm going to try it to see if results differ. But the difference was dramatic with the coax. Now I will probably sell my standard and upgrade to ME due to this review! Then the AGDs!

Would really appreciate it if you could review the Weiss DAC 204, especially with the DMP-A6 as streamer, which has also been getting much praise, but slightly confusing as there is also the odd not so good review.

(I use a Holo Audio DAC that I love). How good do you think the internal switch mode power supply is? Volumio has a new streamer -- the RIVO. (streamer only @ $1,000) I"m curious how good that is.

Thank you so much for the review Jay. I really like the functionality of this unit. The screen is great but I personally don't want to touch my streamer. I have two systems and I never touch either streamer so the touch screen means nothing to me. Yes, the VU meters are cool but I don't don't need to pay for "cool" in my system. The sound is what I am after and speaking of sound, I really appreciate your description of the sound especially between the two units. Nice review!

Hi. Thank you very much for the video. Regarding the remote control, I would have something else. You can't get the Eversolo DMP A6 out of standby with your mobile phone. So you always have to turn it on at the device via the volume control. With the remote control, this can be done without having to go to the device.

So, I bought one and thought I had scored big-time. First listen was through Klipsch active R51PMs and R-12SW subwoofer. Nice. After a week I decided to compare it to my ifi Neo, also $800ish. I couldn't believe my ears at first. The Neo, streaming through my Moto Z, sounded crisper with better attack, better separation and more presence in the soundstage. I've gone back and forth with different genres of music and am bummed the Eversolo doesn't simply smoke the Neo. My main system is a Hegel H190 through Dali Oberon 9s with room treatment (absorbers, bass traps and 3d diffusers to come) I've partially installed. Wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience and what streamer/DAC beat the Eversolo?

Thanks Jay, I've been using a Cambridge Audio Azure 851N which was around $1500. The Azure sounds good but I prefer a little brighter sound. Also the Azure's screen is not high rez. I only use it for playing FLAC files from a USB drive which has a few thousand CDs on it; I don't use it as a streaming service. I was thinking about this Eversolo unit but not sure about the app and it's ability to quickly find music titles. Just a coupe questions: Does this unit support using the embedded cover art or do you have to include a folder.jpg file in the same folder of the album. Does it support m3u playlists? Does it have to build a database of the albums (FLAC) information before they can be played? Thanks

If the opportunity arrises, would be nice to see a comparison of these two streamers. Currently, plan to use the streamers digital output into my PrimaLuna EVO100 Tube DAC, then into a PrimaLuna EVO300 Tube Integrated, but I like the ability to use the streamer in another 2-channel setup in the house to use its preamp/DAC capabilities as well ... anyway, any comparisons would be interesting to hear your opinion on.

But MXN10 only allows volume adjust via analogue out. But the analogue out does sound great even if the ESS Dac is not the latest top of range version. Would be great to have a comparison between the 2.

Were I to buy this, it wouldn't be for its streaming options, because I don't stream from Web sources. Instead, I store all my music on hard disc/SSD from ripped CDs. So the only real advantage for me would be as a laptop replacement, and then only if the unit offered better sound than my laptop does going through my separate DAC. I've asked this question on several platforms, but not so far received a clear cut answer. Does anyone use it (at least in part) in the way I would, and if so, how does its quality of sound compare to that being passed over USB from a pretty standard laptop? Is it significantly better, or just about the same? I'd be most grateful if anyone could answer me this.

I use my Dell Latitude E5470 with 4m Supra USB cable to my DAC. This laptop has an extremely quiet (i.e. inaudible) fan, though I haven't been able to ascertain how well its USB ports are shielded. But you know what? Now you've got me thinking. The DMP A-6 is quite expensive and TBH, ergonomically speaking, my laptop screen + thumbwheel mouse is great for track navigation. So maybe I could first investigate other, less expensive options to ensure the cleanest signal from laptop USB port to DAC -- e.g. some kind of reclocker/galvanic isolator. Or, something I could try right now: using my Douk audio XMOS XU208 DD convertor (cost me around £50 a couple of years back) and seeing whether using optical or coaxial rather than USB makes a worthwhile difference. Can't think why I haven't tried it before in my current setup, but I haven't. So many thanks for prompting me! 🙂

The Hans Beekhuyzen Channel recommends a network bridge between laptop and DAC. I think he's a thorough reviewer as well, but I also think that only a real test vs the current setup at home can show the real effect in your situation. In my situation it's a laptop running foobar2000 feeding a RME ADI-2 DAC and I'm curious if an Eversolo would better the sound. And if so, enough to justify the investment.

I have the PC networked with my main computer and use the DAC's on my marantz pre amp. Plus it can easily handle movies with Plex or Kodi.

I recently purchased the Eversolo DMP A6 from BB radio in Toronto where I also attended the Eversolo presentation. I am also looking at either the AudioLab 9000a or Cambridge Audio CXA 81 integrated amp.(By the way I am from Hamilton Ontario). I am having a difficult time deciding on speakers to match with these items. I am presently looking at the SVS ultra towers, SVS prime pinnacle or paradigm founder 80. What do you think? I am new to the entry level audiophile scene. My Budget is $10,000 or $8,500 CAD after the eversolo purchase. Would appreciate any help with matching the speakers.

it will ultimately depend on your taste. The best thing I can do is try and point you in the right direction. In my opinion, the svs ultra towers or paradigm speaker can potentially sound harsh on some tracks with the eversolo in the chain. Now if you balance it out with a warm sounding amp, it may work BUT I would highly suggest you to take a look at Arendal 1723 THX (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bcliZdCX2Kuol6c.htmlsi=0cFcsWYtWojWLSm0) or if you can stretch your budget (and you appreciate depth and width of the soundstage as well as impeccable imaging, while being warm/forgiving), I'd recommend the Rosso Certaldo (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hL6TmKafrsnHeIk.htmlsi=bEKqhSNBJ8tcylSk)

Forgot to mention my room size is 12 feet by 16 feet. The speakers have to go on my long wall given room layout and furniture. Thank you very much for the quick response.

Arendal has a 60 day risk free in-home trial. And rosso, you will have to contact them to see where you can demo

Excellent. Thank you very much for your opinion. I am checking out your review of the arendal 1723 right now. I think it might be the match for me because of the opinion that my room would be classified as a medium size room. I hope the AudioLab 9000A will make them sing for me.
