An exceptional audio architecture
At the heart of the DMP-A6 Master Edition Gen 2 are two Sabre ES9038Q2M digital-to-analog converters, renowned for their exceptional performance. This dual configuration ensures optimal channel separation and a remarkably faithful sound reproduction, revealing every nuance of recordings, even the most complex ones.
One of the major improvements in this second generation lies in its low-noise linear power supply, replacing the switching power supply of the previous version. This technical choice ensures a more stable and quieter power delivery to the audio circuits, contributing significantly to the purity of the reproduced sound. The extremely low electrical noise level (below 40 μV) translates directly into a silent noise floor, allowing the most subtle details to emerge.
The fully balanced circuit architecture, combined with high-quality OPA1612 operational amplifiers, ensures uncompromising audio signal transmission. These carefully selected components help maintain signal integrity throughout the processing chain, minimizing distortion and maximizing dynamic range.
The integrated femtosecond precision clock drastically reduces jitter, ensuring perfect synchronization during digital-to-analog conversion. This temporal precision results in a more stable stereo image and better spatial definition of instruments.
Comprehensive connectivity for universal integration
The DMP-A6 Master Edition Gen 2 stands out for its exceptional connectivity versatility. The addition of the HDMI ARC input, a new feature in this generation, allows audio to be received directly from a compatible television, transforming this network player into the nerve center of your audiovisual system.
On the output side, the device offers balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA connections to accommodate all types of amplifiers. The HDMI output can transmit multi-channel DSD64 and raw multi-channel PCM 192 kHz up to 5.1, ideal for sophisticated home theater configurations.
For network connectivity, the DMP-A6 benefits from a Gigabit Ethernet connection and a dual-band Wi-Fi module (2.4 GHz + 5 GHz), offering maximum flexibility for integration into your home network. The Wake-on-LAN function, new to this generation, allows the device to be powered on remotely via the network.
Internal storage is provided by an M.2 NVMe 3.0 slot compatible with SSDs up to 4 TB, allowing a large music library to be stored directly within the device. Two USB 3.0 ports complement this offering for connecting external peripherals.
A complete music ecosystem
The DMP-A6 Master Edition Gen 2 supports an impressive variety of high-resolution audio formats, from 32-bit/768 kHz PCM to DSD512, including the MQA format. This extensive compatibility allows professional-quality studio recordings to be fully exploited and enjoyed with a sound reproduction faithful to the artists’ intentions.
The integration of major music streaming services is a key asset of this device. TIDAL, Qobuz, Amazon Music, Apple Music, and many others are accessible directly from the user interface. Roon Ready certification guarantees perfect compatibility with this popular audiophile ecosystem, while DLNA and UPnP protocols ensure smooth communication with other devices on your home network.
The dedicated EverSolo Control app allows the device to be controlled remotely from a smartphone or tablet. Its intuitive interface provides quick access to all features and services, considerably simplifying the everyday user experience.
Sound customization and usage flexibility
The DMP-A6 Master Edition Gen 2 offers various sound customization options that set it apart from the competition. The 10-band equalizer allows precise adjustment of the sonic signature according to your preferences and the characteristics of your listening room, while the integrated acoustic correction automatically analyzes and compensates for acoustic shortcomings in the environment.
Its digital preamplifier function with adjustable volume offers the ability to connect the device directly to active speakers or a power amplifier, thereby simplifying the reproduction chain and preserving signal integrity. This versatility allows for various configurations, from a minimalist audiophile system to a sophisticated multi-channel setup.

After a few weeks of using this Eversolo DMP-A6 Master Edition Gen 2, I am completely won over. The build quality is exemplary, with its high-quality aluminum chassis that feels extremely solid.
Visually, the large screen is magnificent, but the VU meters are the highlight of the show: they are absolutely addictive and bring an incredible touch of charm to the listening experience.
Sound-wise, it is of a very high standard. Although the technical differences from the standard version (femtosecond clocks and OPA1612 op-amps) are subtle to the ear, the whole thing sounds wonderfully good, with a perfect tonal balance and great transparency.
Finally, the networking side is exemplarily stable. The connection with my Synology NAS is perfect, navigation is smooth and without a single hiccup. An investment I absolutely do not regret!

Après quelques semaines d'utilisation de cet Eversolo DMP-A6 Master Edition Gen 2, je suis totalement conquis. La qualité de fabrication est exemplaire avec son châssis en aluminium de qualité qui respire la solidité.
Visuellement, le grand écran est magnifique, mais ce sont les VU-mètres qui sont le clou du spectacle : ils sont absolument addictifs et apportent une touche de charme incroyable à l'écoute.
Côté son, c'est du très haut niveau. Bien que les différences techniques avec la version standard (horloges femtosecondes et amplis OPA1612) soient subtiles à l'oreille, l'ensemble sonne merveilleusement bien, avec un équilibre tonal parfait et une grande transparence.
Enfin, la partie réseau est d'une stabilité exemplaire. La connexion avec mon NAS Synology est parfaite, la navigation est fluide et sans aucun accroc. Un investissement que je ne regrette absolument pas !

Impossible for me to connect with the app on the Android phone, I find the process in the instructions brief with a lack of clarity and a step-by-step guide that is sorely missing, otherwise the "Swiss Army knife" is perfect, nothing to complain about

Impossible pour moi de me connecter avec l'application sur le portable androïde,
je trouve la démarche sur la notice succincte avec un manque de clarté et une démarche pas à pas qui fait cruellement défaut, sino le "couteau suisse " est parfait rien à redire
