EverSolo T10

Entrusting signal conversion to a converter of your choice and reserving an entire machine solely for playing digital streams: that is the principle of a streaming transport. The T10 extends this idea at EverSolo, after the T8, by refining the clock, power supply, and isolation. There is no converter on board, then, but rather a digital source whose mission is to send the cleanest possible signal to the electronics placed behind it.

A transport without integrated conversion

The T10 contains no digital-to-analog converter. Its job stops at reading and formatting the digital stream, which it retrieves from the network, internal storage, or streaming platforms, then sends to an external converter. This choice leaves everyone free to keep the DAC they prefer; the T10 handles the source side, that is, organizing music, managing online services, and transmitting the signal.

Compared with an all-in-one network player, which combines streamer and converter in the same enclosure, this separation has a concrete advantage: moving the final conversion out of the rest of the chain and entrusting it to dedicated electronics, less exposed to noise from the computer and the network.

The OCXO clock and 10 MHz input

Clock regularity determines the quality of digital transmission. The T10 features an OCXO (Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator) with very low phase noise, kept at a stable temperature to limit frequency drift. A phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit refines this clock signal and reduces jitter, those tiny timing variations that degrade the reading of audio data.

For systems already equipped with a master clock, the T10 adds a 10 MHz input compatible with 50 and 75 ohm impedances. This connector prepares for the arrival of the C10, the external clock announced by EverSolo, without imposing anything: the internal oscillator works on its own, and the input remains an option for those who want to go further in synchronization.

Linear power supply and isolated signal

The power supply is based on an O-type toroidal transformer developed for the device, with separate paths for the system circuits and the audio circuits. The objective is to keep interference from the computing section away from the audio section. Added to this is electrical isolation across all interfaces, with multiple layers on the critical digital signal paths, internal physical partitioning, and electromagnetic shielding for the screen.

These measures are not intended to color the sound in one way or another. They aim for a calmer electrical environment, where details and dynamic nuances stand out against a reduced noise floor.

Digital outputs and network connections

On the output side, the T10 offers an IIS connection with eight selectable modes, enough to adapt to different converters and their pinouts. Added to this are a USB Audio output and a coaxial output, each with high-precision isolation, as well as an AES/EBU connection and an optical output. This variety covers most DACs on the market, old and new.

For networking, two wired inputs coexist: a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, which ensures comfortable bandwidth for high-resolution streams and large libraries, and an SFP fiber interface, which cuts the copper link and keeps electrical interference from network equipment at a distance. Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 completes the package for rooms without cabling.

A redesigned 8.6-inch screen

The touchscreen grows to 8.6 inches and adopts a completely redesigned interface: new information layout, revised interaction logic, card-based navigation. The panel has two uses. It controls playback, and during listening it displays VU meters in several styles, spectrum visualizations, or ambient animations such as a campfire and forest scenes. Enough to give the device a real presence in the room, where many sources make do with a small display.

Playback software and library

The software side relies on a 64-bit eight-core processor, 8 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of internal storage, enough to handle large collections without latency and switch from one task to another without waiting.

The system natively integrates the main platforms: Apple Music, TIDAL, Qobuz, Deezer, Amazon Music. It also supports the TIDAL Connect, Spotify Connect (Lossless), Qobuz Connect, and DLNA protocols. The new library engine analyzes around 200,000 tracks in two hours, with global search, cross-platform playlists, and full shuffle playback. A CD ripping function retrieves cover art, track information, and metadata with intelligent error correction, a global fade-in and fade-out smooths transitions, and upsampling up to 16× is available for high-resolution recordings. Control is handled from the screen, the EverSolo Control app on smartphone and tablet, or the supplied V16 remote control.

Acoustic correction with evotune Pro

The T10 uses the evotune Pro acoustic correction system, here equipped with a new FIR (finite impulse response) algorithm, a 20-band parametric equalizer, and more advanced bass management. The principle: measure the room, build a model of it, then generate a suitable compensation profile. A living room, an office, and a dedicated room do not present the same acoustic problems; the goal is to correct those that weigh most heavily on the result, without imposing any particular color on the sound.

Its place in the 10 range

The T10 is the flagship of EverSolo’s new 10 range, which also includes the DAC-Z10 converter and the upcoming C10 master clock. The enclosure measures 365 by 310 by 88 mm and weighs 6.3 kg; it shares the dimensions of the Z10, for neat stacking once the two devices are combined. It is the direct successor to the T8, whose pure transport logic it retains while revising the internal architecture, from the clock to the network.
