Is it worth replacing a Lumin D2 with an Eversolo dmp-a6 Master Edition?


Hey

 

i just got a new DAC (T+A DAC 200), to upgrade the internal DAC of my Lumin D2 (that i use as a streamer only now).

Do you think it will be a sonic upgrade to get an Eversolo dmp-a6? or just a cosmetic upgrade … or worse … can it sound worst?

 

TIA

It's supposed to be a very good streamer.    My Dad just ordered one.  I'm looking forward to setting it up for him.   Steve Huff loved the standard version.   

I use an Aurender N200.  If I had a T+A 200 DAC that is what I would consider.   But at $1300 the Eversolo could be a good value.  

I am going to post a mini review of my thoughts after setting it up.  He should have it in a few weeks, they are backordered

Summit HiFi is a distributor of these.  My Dad's should ship third week of June.   I believe they still have a few pre-order ones left from that batch.  He got the Master edition which has a Femto clock instead of a TXCO clock.   

Specs on both are ridiculously good....   but how do they sound?   I will be sure to post my impressions.  

 

I have no experience with Lumin so I can’t recommend one device over the other.  I have an Aurender N200 and this unit can do everything that can , and then some.  It is pretty impressive so far and sounds very good

My Dad just received the Eversolo DMP A6 Master last night.  Set up was super easy.   I had it set up in ten minutes. First impressions are really good.   I have always been skeptical about Chi Fi but it is a slick well thought out package that sounds really good.  I am going to bring my RME DAC down at some point to compare its analog output.  
 

Looks like a good product so far. 

Curious what you are replacing it with and why ?   I think it is a great unit for the money .  I like Aurender but they start at $2700 so this unit definitely has appeal for many.
