It is aimed at listeners who want to stop stacking boxes. A 6.5-inch LCD touchscreen handles browsing, and the EverSolo Control app mirrors it on your phone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 0.9em 0; line-height: 1.55;\"\u003eConnections are generous. Two coaxial and two optical digital inputs sit alongside an isolated USB-B port and HDMI eARC. The analog side adds one balanced XLR pair and two RCA pairs. A phono stage or a tuner can share the rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 1.05em; margin: 0.9em 0 0.25em 0; font-weight: 600;\"\u003eTwo Drive Bays Mean Your Library Lives Inside\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 0.9em 0; line-height: 1.55;\"\u003eTwo M.2 2280 NVMe slots each take an SSD up to 4TB. Fill both and the A10 holds your whole collection. No NAS has to run in another room. Playback covers native DSD512 and PCM up to 768kHz\/32-bit, so nothing needs converting first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 0.9em 0; line-height: 1.55;\"\u003eWired Ethernet or dual-band 2.4G and 5G Wi-Fi handle the network. An SFP fiber port is fitted for anyone who wants an isolated optical run, though the module itself is bought separately. Bluetooth 5.0 covers casual listening, with SBC and AAC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 1.25em; margin: 1.4em 0 0.35em 0; font-weight: 600;\"\u003eWhere the Volume Control Earns Its Keep\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 0.9em 0; line-height: 1.55;\"\u003eThe preamp stage is fully balanced. It runs an R2R resistor-ladder volume network rather than attenuating in the digital domain. Each resistor step is trimmed. Left-right balance adjusts in 0.1dB steps, and up to 10dB of analog gain is on hand for quieter sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 0.9em 0; line-height: 1.55;\"\u003eAn ESS ES9039 Pro converter and an XMOS XU316 processor do the decoding.

That measurement needs a microphone, and none ships in the box. Use the one in your phone, any USB measurement mic you own, or EverSolo's EM-01. The carton holds a power cable, a trigger cable, a remote, three antennas and the manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 0.9em 0; line-height: 1.55;\"\u003eThe bench figures are low. Distortion measures below 0.000078 percent on XLR. RCA comes in below 0.00009 percent. Dynamic range and signal-to-noise both beat 130dB balanced and 129dB unbalanced. Crosstalk stays under -123dB.

It shares its case, its chips, its streaming platform and its power supply with the plain Gen 2, which costs less. What you pay more for is inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eFour things change. First the clocks: a pair of Accusilicon parts, one for the 44.1kHz family and one for 48kHz. Lower jitter is the point. You hear it as a steadier stereo image, not as extra detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.05em;margin:0.9em 0 0.25em 0;font-weight:600;\"\u003eThe Other Three\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThen the output stage, which uses OPA1612 op-amps, the same parts EverSolo puts in the dearer DMP-A8. The screen grows to six inches. The volume knob gains a light ring you can set to any color, and the logo is picked out in gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.25em;margin:1.4em 0 0 0.35em 0;font-weight:600;\"\u003eTwo Converter Chips, One per Channel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eMost streamers run one chip for both channels. This one runs two ESS ES9038Q2M converters, one per channel, balanced end to end, fed by an XMOS XU316 processor. PCM plays up to 32 bits and 768kHz, DSD up to DSD512, and MQA is decoded in hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThe numbers off the balanced outputs are strong. Output is 5.2 volts, dynamic range better than 128dB, and distortion plus noise below 0.000087%.

It has a big, clear touchscreen, an interface that works, and sound that competes well above its price. The Master Edition Gen 2 is the refined flagship of that line. It adds better clocks, better op-amps and a sharper display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eTwo ESS ES9038Q2M chips handle the left and right channels on their own. An XMOS XU316 feeds them, taking PCM up to 32-bit and 768kHz, and native DSD512. The measured results are remarkable. Distortion is 0.000087%, and signal-to-noise beats 128dB from the balanced XLR outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThe Master Edition upgrades matter where they count. Ultra-low-jitter clocks tighten the timing. An upgraded OPA1612 op-amp array lowers the noise. A linear power supply holds that noise under 40 microvolts. You also get a sharper touchscreen and an RGB-lit volume knob unique to this edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.25em;margin:1.4em 0 0.35em 0;font-weight:600;\"\u003eA Complete Digital Music Hub\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eStreaming runs through EverSolo's own interface on the 6-inch touchscreen, or through its control app. Tidal, Qobuz, HighResAudio and more are built in.
