Comparing Aurender N20 vs eversolo dmp A8

The Curious Ethernet cable not exactly musical the AQ Vodka is a very good under $500 cable  Go to Perrotta Audio consultants Anthony gives good deals 

please advise on digital connectors too count. Telegartner make the best Ethernet connectors ,and the AQ  Vodka has this , my wife has these in her system 

and don’t forget like most , in this day and age you should hav3 a modem router combo with a horrible $5/wall wart which destroys your streaming sound .

on Audiogon. Linear Tube Audio $700 LPS power supply width a excellent DC cable going to the router mine is 12v , the build quality is better then anything out there up to over $1k ,and most other companies charge $150 just for the Dc cable upgrade, and again buy at minimum a Pangea awg 14  sig mk2 power cord for it .

a decent line conditioner is a for sure also. If streaming the wall wart is Enemy #1 !!

@pinwa I prefer Holo May DaC many times over the Eversolo dac. I like it's streamer capabilities and app is just amazing... 

@romanesq I have used both DAC, and much prefer the Holo May sound. It is solid and analog. dmp A8 DAC sound thinner, and very digital with sparkles on high end which are like artifacts imo. 

Update - so I tried and cheap and new mogami AES cable and now the N20 is sounding amazing. It sounds more natural. Need to do more tests and I am still waiting for a used transparent cable arriving in a couple of days that will be my go-to. Thanks folks for their insights on this matter

@audioman58 thanks for the tip on power cable. I see AC9 and AC14 versions. I am guessing larger gauge is for amps etc and 14 gauge is for digital boxes ?
