hello dear Keith,
comparision is from memory, sold my A-6 ME days before.
no hard evidence, so anecdotal, exactly like I mentioned.
but some people, like me, like anecdotal information about sound experience.
and some people doubt that these measurements tell the whole story. Sound stage and...
If I wrote that both devices sounded the same, it would be just as unsubstantiate. It is just my opinion about the sound, differences are small, but nevertheless clearly noticeable for me.
and someone may be interested as I am in other peoples opinion. That is what forums are about.
curious...
Blind testing is not very easy to do. I don't need it because I hear difference between A-6 master and A-8.
My wife will agree with Keith though, both devices sound fine ;-)
I know Keith, havent done that, but I am happy with the purchase and I like to read other peoples opinions so that is why I also share mine. Just to enjoy our audio hobby.
and I fully disagree with your constant remarks about how all devices sound "transparent’. They all sound different in...
is the DMP A-8 better than the A-6 master edition……………..?
Well, here is my impression of the A-8. I received my DMP A-8 a week ago and been listening a few hours per day,
I had the dmp a-6 master edition for 6 months. It sounded ok on my system, say 7,5 out of 10.
I use the audiophonics purifi...
Eversolo dmp a-8 please, although I already ordered one ;-)
and topping DX9
and it would also be nice to do blind listening tests on a revealing system, so we don’t miss anything that influences the sound…..
because I know I hear a difference between Eversolo a6 and topping d90 se. I like both and differences are not huge.
I have both but decided to keep my topping dac, it sounds a little better in my system (as a pre-amplifier).
So only use the Eversolo as a streamer.
i wouldn’t mind a blind...
Curious if you hear difference between both dac’s.
I keep using my topping d90se dac, because I hear a little improvement over the A6 master version dac.
but some people keep telling there is no difference because the dmp a-6 is ‘transparent’……….
In beekhuyen’s measurements were minor differences visible which could result in audible difference, he shows.
why wouldn’t these visible differences in measurements be audible?
i think our hearing can be very precize in some ways, we can pick up really minor changes in sound.
The comparison between master and standard edition by Hans Beekhuyzen contains measurements as well as a subjective listening impression.
I thought it was a pretty thorough comparison.
the master edition was the better one, but both very good.
even with an external dac the master edition had a...
updated to v1.1.80:
radio paradise works as a charm, thanks for that, it is my morning coffee radio station.
ipad upgrade is however not clear to me, displays a very small album art and I cannot see an improvement over the last version 1.75.
however, as an ‘older’ audio enthousiast, I am...
