Eversolo DMP 8 audition going poorly...
It means…If there’s any upsampling, attenuation, room corrections, etc. not sure what it has if any as far as DSP goes. Disable it.

Macg19 make sure all processing is turned off in the A8. And put few more hours on it. Too early to throw in a towel.   
Best streamer for Audio Note UK dacs
OP - keep in mind, when you use SPDIF input on your dac, the better the clock is in your transport the better the sound quality. Look for a streamer that’s optimized for SPDIF with OCXO clock. A used Aurender N10 or N20 will be a good match. Alter...

Upgrade Interconnects/Cables or…?
Kenny…just checked High Water Sounds and they’re Audience dealer. I highly recommend Audience cables but they’re kind of pricey. My recommendation, especially if you’re going to tackle one cable upgrade, is to start the upgrade process with speak... 
Upgrade Interconnects/Cables or…?
Sure why not…try cables. Something less warm than Cardas. Nordost, DH Labs, Kimber are some that come to mind.   
Wireworld Eclipse 8 interconnect - opinions please
OP…interconnects usually settle within 200hrs enough to show their character. What someone else hears in a context of their system is only a general idea at best. If you have dark sounding components adding cables that sound lean will bring out mo...
