Eversolo dmp A6 vs Master edition vs Z8

I bought the Master Edition for my headphone system a few days ago. My main system has an Aurender N200 and Audio Holo May DAC. I really needed something smaller for my desk and didn’t want to spend a ton of money. The Master Edition improved the clocking and provides better op-amps and I’m told the improvements are worth it. We shall see! I can always sell on the used market without a huge loss if it doesn't pan out!

I have the standard Eversolo dmp-a6 as I use just the streamer part. Aren't most of the improvements on the ME version done on the DAC side of this unit?

@mr_m...that's what I thought also, but can't find any definitive answers.  I use an out-board DAC too.  I was hoping one of our members had both versions and could enlighten us... 

@mofimadness,

Yes. I would like to know too.

I spoke to Amir the owner of summitt audio and he said the clocking and op amps made the background uierer  and noise floor lower. I’m only interested in the Dac and streamer portion of the unit .

jjss49, pls let us know about your thoughts comparing it to the Innuous zen mini when you’ve had a chance to compare.

im also thinking about the Geshelli J2. People like cheap audio man love the j2. I spoke to one of the family members and I was impressed with her openness , honesty and customer service. She was wonderful! With support like I experienced I’d buy from this company. Much less expensive but great reviews and customer support. 
 

im overwhelmed by the choices and people saying the difference is not as big as other factors.
