Eversolo DMP-A8


I've been pondering the DMP-A8; looks like a fun piece of kit, and I was curious about it's in/out configurability.

 

If anyone has the A8 or can answer this question I'd be grateful 😊.

 

Could you, for example, run one of it's digital outs, say I2S, to an external DAC, and run the XLR outs of the DAC back in to the A8's XLR in's. 

 

My thoughts are to then take the RCA outs of the A8, using it's pre-amp section running to my integrated, but bypassing it's pre-amp and just using the power amp section? (my integrated allows this).

 

Would this be doable within the A8's in/out configuration software?

 

Thanks guys

I’m seriously amazed at how great this thing is..there are instruments I’ve never heard in recordings I’ve listened to hundreds of times (i.e. - Radiohead; OK Computer).

I literally just got my A8..I'm doing an A/B with my MA12000 DA2 DAC and it honestly beats it. The DAC tech curve is still alive and well..don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I was using a Wiim Ultra as a streamer and it's really great but doesn't hold a candle to the Eversolo A8.

I'm a happy camper...
