Do people hate Eversolo on here? Or is it liked some?

I question a salesman who tries to sell you a A8 knowing about your preamplifier Is a little suspect to me. Look for a dedicated streamer/DAC or a dedicated streamer and a dedicated DAC. No need to spend money for a preamplifier if you already have one, especially as nice as the one you have. 

I don't "hate" Eversolo, but the A6 ME sounded pretty horrible in my system - very "bright."  I have since realized that I am more of a NOS guy.  I currently have a Holo Cyan 2 and am loving it.

I use the A-8 with Qobuz. Very happy. No problems so don’t know about Customer Service.  

I own an A-6 Master Edition and an A-8 on two different systems... After owning streamers that cost 4X as much, as STREAMERS ONLY they are as good if not better sound, function, and definately better UI than the more expensive ones I tried.  The DACs in both, imo, are not hifi, but feeding a McIntosh D150 or DA-2 they are sweet, not "just for the money."

Like all this stuff, diminishing returns... Eversolo is evidently coming out with a dedicated streaming transport this fall, the T-8.  I'll be buying one and if good, will replace both.  But every DAC/Streamer combo I've tried, including big bucks, don't sound as good using their DACs as just using these as streamer only.

Love my Eversolo A6 Master with TP power supply. I’ve had it for 1 1/2 years and never ever a single issue or hiccup. I do all of the updates and never miss a beat! LOVE the display screen, app, and I think it’s a really sharp, clean looking unit. I am running it to a DENAFRIPS Hermes DDC to a Pontus II 12th…using Qobuz. I see a lot of bad press here regarding Eversolo but I love it. Can’t speak to their customer service because I’ve never had to contact them. Very happy with my unit…
