Eversolo DMP-A6 Gen 2 Universal Streamer Unveiled at CES 2025

The second generation of the Eversolo DMP-A6 Gen 2 network audio streamer offers the user a built-in digital-to-analog converter on two audiophile ES9038Q2M DAC chips from ESS Technologies, a proprietary EOS audio engine that further optimizes sound quality and expanded HDMI commutation capabilities (ARC support and multi-channel audio streaming, including DSD Native).

In addition to all of the above, Eversolo DMP-A6 Gen 2 has a built-in preamplifier “on board”; the model is also Roon certified. The Eversolo DMP-A6 Gen 2 network streamer uses an XMOS XU316 audio interface with an upgraded XMOS chip that supports decoding of DSD digital streams up to DSD512 Native and PCM up to 32-bit / 768 kHz. The new product uses dual low-jitter clock synchronization, combining high-precision clock generators with optimized algorithms to minimize jitter. With a fully balanced architecture, the device offers both balanced and unbalanced analog outputs.
