Description
Eversolo T8 – High-End Network Music Streaming Transport
The Eversolo T8 is a premium dedicated digital music streaming transport engineered for exceptional signal purity, precision and high-resolution audio performance.
Designed for discerning music enthusiasts, the T8 delivers digital music from streaming services, network storage and local music libraries to a compatible external digital-to-analogue converter (DAC).
Unlike conventional network music streamers with integrated DACs, the T8 concentrates on delivering an exceptionally clean digital signal, making it an ideal partner for high-end standalone DACs and reference-quality hi-fi systems.
Precision Digital Audio Engineering
The Eversolo T8 incorporates an ultra-high-precision femtosecond clock system and carefully engineered digital circuitry to minimise jitter and maintain accurate digital audio transmission.
Its low-noise linear power supply helps reduce unwanted electrical interference, supporting stable, high-quality playback.
Electrically Isolated Digital Outputs
The T8 features a comprehensive selection of high-performance digital audio outputs, including:
- Isolated USB Audio: High-resolution digital transmission to compatible external DACs.
- Isolated IIS: Eight configurable output modes for integration with compatible DACs.
- Isolated AES/EBU: Balanced digital audio transmission using an XLR connection.
- Isolated Coaxial: High-quality S/PDIF digital output.
- Optical: Digital audio connectivity for compatible components.
Electrical isolation helps minimise interference between connected components, preserving signal integrity.
High-Resolution Music Playback
The T8 supports stereo PCM audio up to 32-bit/768kHz and native DSD512 through compatible USB Audio and IIS connections.
Supported music formats include FLAC, WAV, AIFF, APE, MP3, AAC and DSD.
Advanced Network Connectivity
The T8 offers flexible network connectivity through:
- Gigabit Ethernet
- Wi-Fi 6 with dual-band support
- SFP fibre network interface
The SFP interface allows compatible optical networking equipment to be used, providing electrical isolation from the wider network.
SFP modules are sold separately.
High-Precision Music Clocking
The T8 incorporates advanced clock technology designed to maintain accurate digital timing and reduce jitter.
Combined with its isolated outputs and low-noise power supply, this provides a sophisticated digital source for high-performance DAC systems.
Large 6-Inch Touchscreen
A responsive 6-inch LCD touchscreen provides intuitive access to music libraries, album artwork, streaming services and system settings.
The Eversolo Control application also allows convenient operation from compatible smartphones and tablets.
High-Resolution Music Streaming Services
The T8 supports a comprehensive selection of streaming services and protocols, including:
- TIDAL and TIDAL Connect
- Qobuz and Qobuz Connect
- Spotify Connect
- Amazon Music
- Roon Ready
- DLNA and UPnP
- Internet radio
- Network music libraries
Service availability depends on firmware, subscription and regional support.
Eversolo Original Sampling Rate Audio Engine
The Eversolo Original Sampling Rate Audio Engine (EOS) is designed to preserve the original sampling rate of compatible digital music sources.
This helps avoid unnecessary sample-rate conversion and supports accurate digital playback.
Advanced Audio Processing
The T8 provides a ten-band parametric equaliser, FIR filter import and additional digital audio processing features.
These allow users to tailor compatible audio signals to their listening environment and system requirements.
Expandable Internal Music Storage
Two internal M.2 NVMe SSD slots support compatible drives up to 8TB each, providing a maximum supported storage capacity of 16TB.
This allows large high-resolution music collections to be stored directly within the unit.
SSDs are sold separately.
External CD Drive Support
The Eversolo T8 supports compatible external USB CD drives for disc playback and CD ripping.
This provides a convenient way to incorporate an existing CD collection into a modern digital music library.
An external CD drive is not included.
Premium Aluminium Construction
The T8 features a precision-engineered aluminium alloy chassis with a sophisticated black finish.
Its substantial construction and carefully arranged internal components make it suitable for premium hi-fi installations.
