| Need to get off of bluetooth.... looking for a wifi streamer for my budget Sell the Eversolo dac , buy a Bluesound Icon and use the McIntosh DA2 DAC in the preamp. Its a really good DAC. That's what I would do. Don't buy an Eversolo streamer their FW is garbage. | |
| Validation This is a pretty solitary hobby. I really don't show off my hardware , I know people think it's nuts to have big stereos anyways. I really don't care, and at the risk of sounding selfish it's completely for my enjoyment.. The best validati... | |
| Validation The smile on my face when I crank it up is all I need. My son and son in law were over the other day . They have heard my main system a number of times in its different incarnations over the years . They haven't heard my second system sinc... | |
| DAC suggestions? To OP. .listen to a few DACs , so many good ones out there. You can buy a nice pair at your budget. | |
| DAC suggestions? g2 , Im happy you are bug free. My suggestion to any Eversolo user is to turn Auto Update Off and visit their site when there is a FW release. Let the community vet the new firmware before updating. You are literally on your own , you and the o... | |

| Audio influencers on YouTube hiding comments from public view Most of these guys are not professional reviewers , they are the Kardashians of the audio world. I hate the term " influencer" , it's a sad commentary about the world we live in. No one influences my thoughts or choices through social media. | |
| Luxsin X9 is More Than Just a Groundbreaking Headphone Amp Zidoo should be pretty good at firmware by now, but before buying a Zidoo brand I'd do some research on how many bugs they have addressed ( and still NOT addressed) in Eversolo products. Zero confidence in anything they build from first hand ... | |
| Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables Good suggestion. | |
| Streamer recommendation I love my N200. I never thought I’d buy a pricey streamer I leveraged a preamp I wasn’t using and ended up getting a deal too good to pass up. If you have a W20 you probably won’t think it’s too shabby with a good DAC | |
| Quality answer to dangers of Tube amps running under no load Still would never power up without a load. | |
| Weiss DAC 204 hiccups Turn off Audio Clock Trim OFF on the Bluesound plug a USB drive into the Bluesound to see if it plays without hiccups. Also try streaming via USB from a tablet or PC to rule out the music service itself. A phone with a usb c or lightnin... |
