Eversolo DMP-A6.

Hi,

Anyone have any experience with these? the reviews all seem good. I've been looking for something with internal storage and a nice screen. As far as I can find this is about the only option at the price, but after you add a 2TB SSD it's £1000.

Anybody know of any alternatives I should check out?

I found it sounding a bit 'thin', and ultimately a little uninvolving. Might suit the right system, but I don't think it's a product for everyone. The Bluesound Node X sounded better, but that's now discontinued and the Icon is their latest and greatest, and should sound better than the X.

You'll be limited for storage and a nice screen, especially at this price point - the more features on board, the more it eats into the budget, and less the money will have gone into pure sound quality.

If you're talking about the A6 one can insert a SSD drive - so it's not really limited for storage.

If you're talking about sound quality of the Icon - well it's a fully balanced design, and I don't see how you come to that conclusion.

Thanks, I might keep looking.

I meant limited finding options with storage.

And I came to that conclusion by listening to it - design/build etc wasn't taken into account.
