I'm leaning towards the DMP-A6 at the moment. Is the upgrade to Master Edition worth the extra cost?
Yet another streamer options thread...
I'm thinking about a new streamer. I currently use a Logitech Squeezebox Touch with enhanced digital output via coax to a Oppo UDP-205 used as the dac. I also have a RPI piCorePlayer and a Wiim Ultra. I am kind of hooked into the Squeeze infrastructure, so compatibility with that is a must have. I also require a screen display for album art etc. Other nice to haves (but not required to have) are balanced outputs, headphone output, and internal dac that outperforms the Oppo.
The piCorePlayer is not an option for my main rig, But I like the Wiim Ultra pretty well and might go that route. Another option is the Eversolo DMP-A6. Budget is $1k. Any other suggestions?

@cutthroat The piCorePlayer won't physically fit where I need it to go. The WiiM Ultra is currently in my headphone system. I would buy a second one if I decide to go that route. The only thing it is missing is balanced output, but my integrated amp is only a foot or two away, SE should be fine. I would need to purchase some cabling though. |
@jtucker The piCorePlayer won’t physically fit where I need it to go. PiCorePlayer is software for a Raspberry Pi, which is the size of a deck of cards. The raspberry Pi can be had for less than $100 and PiCorePlayer is Free software. I can afford any streamer that I want, but I choose this solution as the Sound Quality is as good as it gets, and lets you choose the DAC of your choice and more control over your streamer than any I've tried.. I’ve used this for 10 years now. So you appear to be confused.... I can help you understand, just ask questions. |
