HOW GOOD IS IT? Eversolo DMP-A8 Streamer Review

The Eversolo DMP-A6 was the hottest digital product of 2023. The DMP-A8 is creating a similar reaction in 2024. Could it be the best digital solution under £2,000?

Youtube recommended your channel after I watched a few other reviews of the A8 and am I glad it did! Nicely done, thank you!

[grommie]

Thanks.
I am happy you talk slowly and informative.

Another 5 star review. I own a
A6 love it slow role off !. I have it paired with a Wilsenton r8. I just tube rolled with the PSVANE kt 88 you recommended and was really impressed with the increased
Detail on voices and placement of instruments. On order next is the driver tubes. Thank you so much

Great review! I’ve been comparing the A6 & A8 for about a week now, and I much prefer the A8. The A6 is more digital, harsh and bright sounding. Really didn’t realize how much so until I a/b the two together. Needless to say I’m keeping the A8.

I like watching your reviews, you are one of the few reviewers that allows us to see the inside of the product. I'm saving money to upgrade my system, I was thinking about a nice streamer/dac. The thing is, your previous video about amplifiers with built-in DAC got me thinking.

Another stellar informative review. appreciate all the information provided regarding the hardware used and the methods chosen by the manufacturer. You can’t find that information easily or so Well explained.
You have a gift when it comes to detailing information that is understandable and useful.
Appreciate your efforts!

As usual, straight to the point and very informative. Great review Tarun

Great review. Check out the AMP-F10 some day! "On paper" looks like killer amp for the $ as the other ES products are.

A review of the Holo Audio Red streaming transport and DDC could be very interesting. There are a limited numer of reviews for that unit. But the ones there are, are generally impressed.

I spent 4 years with the Cambridge Cxn V2 , and loved how it sounded

I now have Eversolo DMP-A8 , and it is another animal in comparison

It's worth the extra money
the sound and features are a league up
soundstage is wider, there is more detail, there is more emotion and life in the sound

Bass is better and you just enjoy the music more and can listen for hours
App is brilliant and the whole thing oozes quality

This is one I will keep for as long as I can imagine

Solid review as always Tarun. 'Detail' can be a blessing and a curse - especially in digital. Ultimately left with how natural does it all seem/feel. You touch on this well and it's key.

Re digital vs analogue volume - it would be interesting to get your further thoughts and experiences on this.

[andreaslindmark]

Nice video as usual. I'd like to see a review of the Atoll Electronique ST300 Signature :)

[mikecampbell]

Wow! You do review some incredible products. I appreciate you showing us the internals, and every time I see your pointer I think it's a soldering iron. LOL This is another product that is so pretty on the inside that they should make a clear top model.

Great review thanks! I would be interested in a review of the Grimm Audio MU2

[NoBody-vslm]

Fantastic review, very helpful. Subscribed!

[fletchermunson]

Thanks, Tarun. nice to see all the features.

[richardramorino]

Very interesting review. Especially well done in the comparison sections. Thank you.

[riccitone]

Tarun, excellent as always. Thank you for going under the hood to explain those nice innards. And for digging more deeply into use case comparisons. This all really helps discern between so many dizzying options! Trying to decide what’s all worth it, especially since many here might already have a nice dac and pre. Maybe the Volumio Rivo would be a nice one to consider looking at? See how it scales with different dacs and power supplies 🙏🏼👍🏼

9:03 Genuine question here. Why not use an eARC enabled tv with the Tidal app to stream to your receiver/DAC/pre processor? You will also get Dolby Atmos music. The eversolo is about 2k for the same money you get a good TV thrown in for free.

[Petsublak]

Excellent review, clear and concise - brilliant delivery and straight up 👍👍👍
