I think if you’re reasonable with your expectations of the Eversolo then you’ll find it’s a great network streamer that sounds relatively good. But if you think you’re going to compare it to a $4000 DAC and a good quality streamer you’re going to be disappointed. And that’s fine right? After all it’s an $800 device. I personally have the master edition and have had the standard one which I returned. I will tell you right now that even to an untrained ear, the master addition is significantly better. I sent them both up and timed them together feeding into the analog inputs of my 300B integrated tube amplifier. Every time you switch to the master addition there’s no doubt that it’s a better device overall. Saying that, I still think if you compared to a $4000 DAK and quality network streamer, you are still likely to be disappointed. But for what it is and what I want from it, it’s a fantastic component!
I will say this.. ever solo did the homework when it came to the operating system and their phone app. It is smooth and completely bug free.
