Eversolo DMP-A8 vs Aurender N10 comparisons?

I currently have a Eversolo DMP-A8.

 

System:

Audio Research Ref5SE

Bryston 14BSST2

Aerial Acoustics 7T

Lampizator Golden Atlantic TRP2

Eversolo DMP-A8

 

So I currently stream via Qobuz with some occasional DSD files direct. Since acquiring my Lampizator, it has AES/EBU input. I alternate between coax via Audio Envy coax cable and USB via a Final Touch Audio Sinope cable. Both sound very good depending on the recording quality.

 

My question pertains to has anyone directly compared these 2 streamers? I’ve had the Eversolo for just about year and it has been solid performing with no issues. I’m more curious about the AES/EBU ability of the Lampizator in addition to a “higher” quality streamer despite the Aurender being an older product. Benefits to be gained? Lateral move? I know there are newer models from Aurender as well as other streamers. More of a curiosity as we all experience in this hobby.  
 

Speaker cables and RCA from DAC to pre are also Audio Envy and room is treated. Have a Rythmik F12 SE and Power Sound Audio S3611 for bass duty.

Thanks for the reply. I consider my system to be resolving in the sense that if I change the tubes in my DAC, I can immediately hear the differences. In this respect, I would consider a higher end streamer to offer my system an upgrade in sound quality. Your feedback is appreciated given you’ve been down the Eversolo road.

I appreciate your feedback regarding your direct experience with the N10. To further elaborate on my thought process would be to clarify that the Eversolo gives me great music. Through all of my research and experience with the DMP-A8, I don’t know if I would characterize it as “musical” per se.

 

From most of my readings regarding Aurender, the word “musical” is referred to frequently. So am I possibly missing out on a more musical experience by sticking with my DMP-A8 or could I get that experience by going with an older N10 which are at considerable discounts compared to some of the newer models.

 

i hope this helps a little more with regards to what I’m thinking.
