[@Alextraz]

i didnt understood the cabrindge audio comment around vinyl. Is he saying that the unit lack turntable input but thats not usually what you want ... better to keep that source fully analog or in general that vinyl is stupid...

[@kungula]

no hifi Rose, no Eversolo, they are outstanding !

[@2HatHudders]

They gave the amp6 glowing reviews last year.

[@CorporateZombi]

What does it do?

[@69leehammond]

You could also include the Zidoo UHD8000 in the mix. Basically an Eversolo A6, but with full media playback as well 👍👍

[@2HatHudders]

@@69leehammond ohh interesting? Full media playback as Netflix streaming? Or local files?

[@andrew-o5i]

eversolo all the way ...

[@69leehammond]

Or the same companies full media version, the Zidoo UHD8000 👍👍

[@2HatHudders]

What are about streamers as transport?

[@davidspendlove5900]

It’s good to have that flexibility to have a separate dac , it future proofs things a little.

[@2HatHudders]

@davidspendlove5900 agreed.

[@saltywalt57]

Why spend so much on streaming? music & movie streaming services are all trying to find their profitability. Many have already disappeared, others are merging. When your favorite streaming service closes, you wind up with an expensive brick. Just opinion.

[@MartinLloyd-w1u]

What services have closed ?

[@davidspendlove5900]

Yeah just stick to the physical formats , there’re better anyway.

@@davidspendlove5900 not all, some of the new vinyl produced is average at best , I allways like a rummage in the charity and second hand shops , still love my turntable,but open to new stuff ,happy listening
