EVERSOLO DMP-A6

Eversolo is the sister company to Zidoo, which has been around for a few years now making various audio-visual products. They launched in 2014 and since then have focussed on making consumer electronics products with ARM multi-core processors at their centre. Fast forward to Eversolo and they have decided to dive into the audio world, their range consists of a standalone DAC, Headphone amplifier, a couple of portable dongle DAC/Amps and finally the DMP-A6 Streamer/DAC we have here.

Eversolo prides itself on producing excellent quality products at reasonable prices, so can the DMP-A6 hold its own in the world of music streamers, or is it just a jack of all trades and master of none?

FEATURES AND BUILD OF THE EVERSOLO DMP-A6

First up we have the streamer side of things. The DMP-A6 accepts wired Ethernet or Wi-Fi to connect to the internet and once connected many devices will see it on the network and you will be able to start streaming straight to it. Personally, I use Roon as I have a core that has a mix of CD rips and Qobuz streaming and Roon found the DMP-A6 very easily and the whole connecting process was very straightforward.

The Eversolo runs on Android, and the firmware receives frequent updates. Running on Android allows you to sideload apps (apk files) onto the device, the front screen might not be huge but it is functional and easy to navigate around apps.

There is a dedicated Eversolo app which allows you to control most of the features of the streamer. For example, in the settings, you have the different DAC filters, fixed or variable volume, brightness of the display,
