Any Eversolo T8 owners out there? Question


Hi,

I posted yesterday as I have always had a delay at the beginning of every song with my Eversolo DMP-A6 Master (Gen 1). Eversolo support says this is normal because I have an outboard DAC. For any T8 owners are you having this issue at all!? I am hesitant to grab the T8 only because I have upgraded to the TP power supply with my DMP-A6. However if the T8 does not suffer from this issue I might just pull the trigger and sell my A6…

 

Appreciate hearing from any T8 owners out there…

 

Thanks in advance!

I have the T8 feeding into the Venus 15th. I've never noticed a delay. It recently replaced my Bluesound Node and I can't say I've noticed any change in terms of there being a pause or delay between songs. There's been a huge improvement in sound quality....but no change in terms of song timing.

@grunge1000 Thanks. Appreciate the feedback!

 

@19mmark19 I have the Icon on a second system also running through Gustard DDC and DAC and no delays. The fact that you have DENAFRIPS gives me some hope that maybe the T8 could solve this? Much as I would rather keep my A6 Master, I’d honestly be willing to sell and get the T8. That split second delay is annoying!

I just got my T8 yesterday. Went back and forth with my LUMIN U1 mini last night. The LUMIN U1 mini sounded better to me. more spacious and smoother top end. I really wanted to like the T8, it’s a beautiful looking steamer. Unfortunately, it’s going back I value sound over features and beauty. 

I used to have the DMP-A8 and used it both with an external DAC and with the internal one. At the same time! (Kidding) I never had any delay at the start of songs either way. 

Sometimes it's the dac when the songs are different resolutions. Other times it's the type of dac. But I think there's a feature in Eversolo that will buffer a little so the switchup doesn't do that between songs.
