Simaudio 600i V2 volume control.
Sorry to hear you need to return it .   Unfortunately that can happen when something is stored and not used for a long time.  Good luck with your search.    
Tung-Sol 7581A......Wow!!
I need to try these in my Quicksilver Mid Monos next time I re-tube.   
Simaudio 600i V2 volume control.
Sounds like a bad volume encoder.  Sometimes you can carefully clean the contacts.  They use a grease in some encoders that gets crusty over time and causes your exact same problem.     I have repaired several of these type of encoders.   It coul... 
What Holiday Gifts did you ask for or Give to Yourself?
I bought a CD transport in August ,  I usually won't buy anything for myself after September.     I like to spend on my kids and girlfriend this time of year.       
Eversolo DMP-A8
A smart move.    It’s too bad because the A6 isn’t a bad box but they try to come off as the new , better streamer company.   There’s  a reason they are $899.      I feel for anyone spending $3700 on their A10 , they are getting the exact same le... 
Klipsch Heresy IV or Revel f226be
Two very different speakers.    I own Forte IV and have owned Revel M106 .  I recently listened to a Rega P3 through the Revel 226 and thought it was a little tipped up on the top end.    The problem with the Revel in my opinion is support.   Wai... 
Is all the hype warranted
What amp did you get?     
Best 2 Channel Audio from 4K Blu-ray PCM Coax Digital to MSB DAC or Analog Output
I'd try all three , they are all viable connections.    Some systems with cable boxes can have ground loop issues.    Option 1 will pass all video to your preamp from TV.  Option 2  should be the best in theory.    If you get noise go Tos.    
current and ex-Sonus faber & McIntosh integrated amp (combo) owners - question for you
My Dad has a MA8950.  It's an awesome Amp.  Sounds great driving Sonus Electa Amator III from the 4 Ohm taps it barely gets warm.  I ran his REL speaker level and it integrates seamlessly  In the US the 7200 is the MAC 7200 and it's a receiver.  ... 
Eversolo DMP-A6 Streaming Help
Turn off EOS , also any DSP functions like EQ force 24/48k operation with PCM material.      
Eversolo, can I do better?
Anyone spending $3700 on the A10 is wasting their money if they expect the level of support Innuos, Aurender, and Auralic provide.    There is NO support , over the air updates are the only "support"   and if they are bad you're screwed  They can... 
Best 2 Channel Audio from 4K Blu-ray PCM Coax Digital to MSB DAC or Analog Output
I would just connect via Toslink to avoid any hum and call it a day.  Connection via a coax may cause hum or noise.   Best to optically isolate video from your system.   That's a great DAC , the last thing I'd worry about is jitter with TV/ Video... 
Eversolo, can I do better?
Eversolo support is non existent.  You must roll back FW when there is a bug.   Then you will wait months and still no fix.   Real POS company if there's a problem,  they expect the dealer to carry out warranty.   I asked them for an RMA for a uni... 
Do you have a perfect digital marriage?
I use an Aurender N200  network streamer ,  Lab 12 DAC 1 Reference ,  and Teac VRDS 701t Transport.    Great sounding front end in my rig.          
Listening pleasure
Glad to hear you are doing well.    I came close to death and was laid up for a few months and I don't know what I would have done without music.   I was in a dark place and music got me through it.
