EverSolo DMP A6 Master Edition | My thoughts

EverSolo DMP A6 Master Edition | My thoughts
It's got most music streaming services covered. It's slick, looks good and sounds good.
Aus Retail Price $1999
Pros:
Easy step by step - setup
Great sound, with good dynamics
Nice looking unit
Catering for many music streaming apps
Multiple users can use the app.
Cons:
No Wake on Lan, via the app (maybe possible future firmware update?), unit has to be physically turned.
I didn't get a chance to hook up a power amp to this unit. I ran the unit strictly as a music streamer.

Hi, Great video. thank you for that clear explanation.

[@robertwang7825]

I have this A6 ME using just as a streamer connected to my R2R DAC , I use a LAN connection to my router for best results as WiFi can result in lost data packages ( Audio Science Review ) . It’s a pretty good quality streamer. Note some ppl have upgraded the Linear Power Supply inside with a LHY unit and instructions from Vinshine Audio. It voids the warranty so I’m not too keen atm. Maybe in 2 yrs time. Very happy with the purchase , sounds way better than my IPhone ( which was my previous streamer for Apple Music ). Btw if you use Cast , you can stream Apple Music lossless rather than using Airplay2. My only regret is maybe should have waited for the A8 ( which won the IESA streamer award in Europe ). That’s quite a feat coming from a young Chinese company.

It’s quite the streamer and I agree - sounds great

[@martyn_g]

Hey! Any sibilance?

[@concordhifi]

Hi, I didn’t notice any. However I was running it through a power station that completely cleans the power up. The unit is clean and crisp.
