Seeking Recommendations for a Streamer (No DAC)
Anyone have any experience yet with the Eversolo T10?  
Seeking Recommendations for a Streamer (No DAC)
Another vote here for the T8. Great detail and Soundstage,  plus support for most streaming services.  Another option would be to keep the N130, and mod it with a Teddy Pardo LPS.  Prior to the T8, I had a Node 2i.  I moded it with the TEDDY PARDO... 
Ethet net to fiber optic to feed your streamer
I am also using an LHY FMC into my Eversolo T8.  It replaced the ethernet cable that previously fed the streamer through an English Electric Ee1 filter.  I experienced a slight improvement in SQ but nothing earth shattering.   
DDC Sound Improvements???
I had a Node2i moded with a TeddyPardo LPS connected via coax to my PS Audio Directstream DAC Mk1 moded by APS Transformers. I tried a Denafrips Hermes 12th DDC,  connecting to the DAC with I2s. I did not experience a significant improvement in SQ... 
Wifi vs hardwired for streaming
I have my Eversolo T8 connected with ethernet, but just short of the streamer,  I have an English Electric Ee1 network noise isolator,  then a very short .5 meter high quality cat 6 cable into the streamer. The isolator makes a discernable,  but n... 
Pls help me find a network streamer w/ I2S output (not a DAC)
@genomeip  The Eversolo T8 supports Amazon HD. Idagio and Amazon HD are the streaming services that I use. The Eversolo OS is pretty intuitive and user friendly. As I mentioned earlier, the SQ IMO is really great.   
Pls help me find a network streamer w/ I2S output (not a DAC)
I've had my Eversolo T8 for a little more than two months now.  It replaced a Bluesound Node 2i moded with a TeddyPardo LPS.  I find the sound quality to be superb,  and as mentioned by a previous poster it's gotten better as it has broken in (I k... 
Anti-vibration balls for hifi racks
You could use steel shot instead of lead. Steel shot is used for waterfowl hunting to reduce environmental pollution.   
Streamer That Supports Qobuz and Amazon Music?
I listen to Amazon HD and Idagio (for classical). I've tried Qbuz and Tidal,  and found that Amazon HD sq as good or better,  with Amazon having greater selection and better interface.  I was using a Node 2i moded with a Teddy Pardo LPS using the ... 
Upgrade DAC Power Supply, Streamer, or ?
I would try upgrading your power supply for your dac to an lps. I upgraded to a Teddy Pardo LPS on my Node 2i a few years ago and was shocked at how much it improved the SQ! Not a direct comparison by any stretch,  but an example of how much diffe...

Streamer with built in DAC...is there much difference between brands?
I had a Node 2i feeding a digital signal into my moded PS Audio Directstream DAC Mk1 over a coax connection. When I moded the 2i with a Teddy Pardo LPS there was a huge upgrade to the SQ. Two months ago I purchased the new Eversolo T8 streaming tr... 
Denafrips Support - No Such Thing
@tekaudiospecialties1  Thanks for reaching out. After the holidays I will contact you and take you up on your offer to fix the unit. Thanks  
Denafrips Support - No Such Thing
Perhaps a bit abbreviated, but certainly not untruthful!! Read the string of instructions on how to update (actually in this case, back date) the firmware. I am not a computer person, so a lot of it just does not register with me. And I was warned... 
Upgrading pre amp advice.
You might consider a PS Audio Stellar Gold preamp. A little outside your budget new,  but they often have factory refurbished units that would fall into your price range.  I have one,  and imaging and Soundstage is great.  And those are my hot but...
