Reference network audio streamer • AK4191EQ & dual AK4499EX Velvet Sound™ VERITA DACs • ultra-low phase noise femtosecond OCXO clock system • fully balanced R2R analog volume control • dual linear/digital toroidal power supplies • 6" color LCD touchscreen • CNC-machined aluminum chassis
The EverSolo DMP-A8 Master Edition Gen 2 represents the next generation in all-in-one digital streaming, reference digital-to-analog conversion, and balanced analog preamplification. Anchored by Asahi Kasei’s flagship two-chip architecture pairing the AK4191EQ delta-sigma modulator with dual AK4499EX DAC chips, this second-generation master edition utilizes upgraded ultra-low phase noise femtosecond OCXO crystal clocks and high-end discrete operational amplifiers. Featuring a fully balanced analog R2R ladder volume attenuator, dual independent power supplies, HDMI IIS/eARC connectivity, and an intuitive 6-inch touchscreen interface, it provides surgical resolution, zero-loss transparency, and expansive staging for discerning high-fidelity audio systems.
Key Features & Innovations
Flagship AK4191EQ + Dual AK4499EX Architecture — the EverSolo DMP-A8 Master Edition Gen 2 completely separates digital processing from analog conversion using AKM's Velvet Sound™ VERITA architecture, eliminating high-frequency digital noise and achieving astonishing dynamic clarity.
Master Edition Dual Femtosecond OCXO Clocks — features upgraded ultra-low jitter, temperature-controlled crystal oscillators with dedicated noise filtering, restoring micro-timing accuracy and imaging solidity across all PCM and native DSD streams.
Fully Balanced Passive R2R Analog Volume Control — true resistor-ladder network attenuates volume without degrading dynamic range or introducing digital bit-stripping, allowing the streamer to function as a pure reference line-stage preamplifier.
Dual Toroidal & Linear Low-Noise Power Supplies — separates dirty digital circuitry from sensitive analog stages via dedicated isolated linear and switched power rails, driving noise floors down past -120 dB.
Can the EverSolo DMP-A8 Master Edition Gen 2 connect directly to power amplifiers?
Yes. The EverSolo DMP-A8 Master Edition Gen 2 incorporates a fully balanced analog R2R resistor-ladder preamplifier with selectable gain and dedicated XLR/RCA line outputs, enabling direct connection to stereo or monoblock power amplifiers without a separate preamp.
What sets the Master Edition Gen 2 apart from standard streamer models?
The Master Edition Gen 2 upgrades standard configurations with dual femtosecond OCXO reference clocks, enhanced discrete operational amplifiers, upgraded power supply filtering, and distinctive gold-accented chassis badging.
Can internal storage be installed for local music libraries?
Yes, the underside of the chassis features an M.2 NVMe SSD expansion bay that supports fast solid-state drives up to 4TB, allowing users to store and index high-resolution music files directly on the unit.
Does it support lossless Apple Music playback?
Yes, operating on a customized EOS (Eversolo Original-sampling-rate Audio Engine) Android system, it bypasses the standard SRC sample-rate conversion bottleneck to output direct bit-perfect streams from apps like Apple Music, Tidal, and Qobuz.
