This might be of interest to some:

The A10 will do all of the filtering, to the speaker and sub. The A8 does the same filtering for the rca and xlr outputs meaning you would have to do filtering at the sub. I assume the latest update didn't change that (as I thought that was a hardware not software related issue.)

Keith had said: "At the moment you can only add eq to the digital inputs and outputs, the XLR and RCA outputs will have the same filtering. So you would need filters on the sub." I think the A10 would allow you to do the filtering at its output instead. Not sure the justifies the cost...

Appreciate the responses. My goal is to have the following chain: A8 - DIYDSP - Amplifier/Subwoofer. I have an analog source (turntable) and I want to apply room correction to Roon and my source. With a Flex, I can go analog in to the flex then out to my amplifiers and a sub. I had been...

How could I do that? I recently purchased an Eversolo A8 and switched to Roon from JRiver (for convenience, more than anything else; the cost notwithstanding, I'm impressed by Roon's ability to just work in an unfussy manner)and I was thinking of turning to my now unused computer for room...

That would be great.

Can this be used to show the volume? I have an A8 and would like to have the ability to have an always on display for the volume separate from the info on the built-in screen.

I only just started to use Roon. I switched to it from JRiver after I set-up my A8. (I'm not fully convinced it's worth the money to be honest, but that's a different post.) At any rate, the server is set-up on the computer I use to store my file. I have around 161k audio files totaling just...

Why is this ideal?

Likely cost?

I could. I probably won't. It works but it feels less than ideal.

I just bought an A8. But if to get full use of dsp you need to add another component, such as the Flex, and thus bypass the A8's dsp, I wonder if the extra cost of the A8 can be justified over an A6 and a separate pre-amp like the Kara. Remove the dsp and obviate the need for an analog input and...

So I'm clear, I can set the xlr out put to send a signal that cuts-off at 40 hz but the rca signal will only send a full range signal requiring the sub to set the crossover? Or is it that however I set the dsp, it is outputted the same whether via rca or xlr?

I would add, also, is it possible to have the dsp work for the analog inputs as well?

Is the hardware in place to have the A8 outputs function as a crossover? In other words, balanced to speaker amplifier, crossed over, and an rca output to send lfe a sub? Would it be a matter of updating the software or is it not possible with the A8 as it currently exists?

I've been following this thread with much interest. I've been trying to narrow down my options before making a purchase to replace my now no-longer function dac/pre-amp. I had posted a thread with the following: My question remains, what if any benefit is there to the A8 over an A6/Kara combo.

I prefer their early stuff, from before they were born....

I posted in another thread my need for a new preamp and dac (Pre-Amp and DAC advice). One question I had is "Other than the additional digital inputs, is there any real advantage (space is not an issue) to the A8 over a Schiit Kara/A6 combo?" The Stereophile review doesn't address the relevant...

Thanks for the responses. I currently use a Wiim Pro but was thinking of combining the dac/streamer function. The Eversolo besides measuring well has the benefit of looking sharp. Most of my music listening is through JRiver which applies dsp in turn. Thought I saw an note (perhaps it was...

After a recent calamity, my preamp/dac needs to be replaced. There aren't many features I need but I do want xlr ins-and-outs for the preamp, would prefer to have the dac and preamp as separate units and to keep the total pre-tax cost under $2k or so. After considering a number of options I've...
