Any Eversolo Amp F10 owners out there ?


I'm thinking of switching to notably less efficient planar-type speakers from very efficient ones.  My present flea-watt amps won't be able to power the planar's so I was looking for an amplifier not too expensive that could do the job.  I came across the Eversolo Amp F10.  Can anyone out there who owns one please give me their impressions of how it sounds and its capabilities ?  I can't find any reviews on it.  However many of their digital products have received great reviews.  

Thanks !

If you are okay with Class D look at VTV amps. 
 

I use a Cary CAD 200 on my LRS. Plenty of power.

I realize I am reviving this thread after a month, as I was spending time this morning looking for reviews on the AMP-F10. 

I’ve been an Eversolo for a month now and have the A10 and F10 combo. As a dealer of many very high end brands, I will say that this combo truly impresses me, especially at its price point. I don’t believe any entire chain of electronics (streamer, DAC, preamp, amp) can beat it sonically at its asking price of ~$6,300. Together, I find it to present in a very natural way. Great tonality, good separation, enough to be holographic and help speakers disappear, a hint of tonal richness, and pretty strong control over speakers. 

The AMP-F10 has no problems controlling my Vivid Audio G1 Spirit which dip down below 3 Ohm, but of course my reference T+A amps deliver better grip, a larger stage, and improved imaging for being 10x the price. The amp is detailed and articulate, but is also on the warm side. One amp I might compare it to at a slightly higher price point is the Cambridge Audio Edge W. In my comparisons, I prefer the tonality of the AMP-F10 a bit more. It is warmer, a bit more harmonic. Detail retrieval is largely similar, though moving to the Cambridge EDGE M monoblocks results it a higher league of resolution and linearity, albeit at 4x the asking price of the AMP-F10. 

The Eversolo combo isn’t as “endgame” as my reference stack overall, but I do believe its performance is very balanced across the board, whereas some manufacturers overindex on resolution at the expense of musicality and vice versa. 

I also have no doubt in pitting the Eversolo stack against other electronics double the cost, like the EDGE W.

@oddiofyl I had the same concerns with Eversolo in the past, but they recently started working with a U.S. distributor in order to overcome some of the challenges in the past. They are making an active effort to improve upon their communications and support, and I have found them to be very easy to work with. I have already suggested a few new features that they are willing to investigate and/or implement.

I forgot to add that I am also using aftermarket power conditioners and cabling with the AMP-F10, which obviously helps it perform at a higher level over stock. 

I’d make sure they have a US repair facility before even considering this amp.  I’d strongly consider this Sanders Magtech amp that is highly regarded and made to drive planar speakers.  It’s older and been on the market for a while so I’d offer a firm $2800 for it and see what you get.  Best of luck.

Too late for me, unit is out of warranty. I told them the warranty was up in 5 days and they stopped communicating 

They left me high and dry ,  absolutely did not care about USB no longer working. Lied about it not being an issue, but a year plus of forum posts confirm it's a problem with several brands.   

No way this company can or will redeem themselves with me .   You would think that after bashing them on forums and their own targeted Instagram ads, someone would reach out and help me on the basis of damage control alone.   Nothing. 

 Speaks volumes about a company.  In my 20 plus years as a forum member it is the only brand I have outted for terrible support.  

I believe the Gen 2 exists because they realized the XMOS chip they were using doesn't like the code written since ver 1.2.98.    I could be wrong but it's one of the only changes to Gen 2.   Why would you release a Gen 2 that is almost exactly the same ?

Sorry but I will have to warn people to steer clear of this brand.   All they had to do was try to help me....  they failed.
