Are there really plenty that come up for sale compared to how many have been purchased. When I read on forums what facilities people want to make their life easier, if it doesn't make them breakfast in bed every morning it's a no no. Have they forgotten when using vinyl, you had to get off your chair, sort through your albums, remove and replace the record and 20 minutes later turn the bloody thing over.
Bring out the garlic and silver bullets, someone is actually checking the facts!
), a returned unit which was a bids sale and | won. I've not compared the streamers since they will be used in different systems.
@Columbo You might have jumped the gun, I found even my A6 streamer to be on par with my Lumin U2 mini, sold because I preferred the Eversolo app. I never expected to buy an A8, one popped up on ebay (at the right or wrong time
I'll find out soon enough, if the sodding thing ever gets sent. (One review said the Rhein Z1 Plus was punching with £10k+ streamers. Don't know about that, but that it's also a Roon Core and Roon Bridge in is a big part of the appeal)
Looking on HiFi Shark is barely checking the facts, come on guys enough of your nonsense. Its the same names over and over again that defend everything. I dont know who your trying to fool. Its the same with all the other sites. Its almost like your immune to criticism or other points of view. I may have just signed up due to wanting to purchase something but ive been a silent reader for years. Same folk saying the same things. A little clique that comment on everything and anything and leave there little likes for each other. Infact it was another poster who said about the amount or Eversolo second hand coming up not me. I merely repeated it and agreed as I have seen them. Ive seen some advertised ForSale 2nd hand and Sold in hours and the adds gone.

So lets put things into perspective here. So Far you have based your replies on the basis that everyone in the Uk have received a demo unit direct from A/Emotion claiming a couple and then followed it up with you looked on Hi-Fi Shark and seen 2 currently ForSale. Then you have the cheek to suggest I dont know what Im on about... Like Ive stated there is a whole bigger world out there other than the UK. No wonder the UK scene is dragging behind the rest and struggling with less and less shops when you read some of folk on forums.
Well Said, no different to magazines or Forums ( ironically) . If you dont like a Mags style and content, Dont Buy it. Dont Like a Channel, Dont Watch it. Its plain and simple but try telling that to the older folk.
Every reply, you guys seems to be changing the goal posts to fit you own narrative. The question was.... Is this the End For All Streamers? My answer was simple -- No. If that spoils the fact youve bought one and it possibly hurts your feelings , then sorry mate but tough.
Best to ignore the troll(s), which of course isn’t the same as ignoring people with a different view! On another thread I gave as a clear an appraisal as I could of what some equipment did and was accused of shilling the maker. It’s a shame as there are many really good posters here, covering a wide spread of views, who don’t resort to name calling.
A lot of the forums seem to be full of cliques, or very blinkered opinions and folk that will defend anything to the hilt because they own one, or suggest how fantastic something is that they surprisingly own. Its always Me, Me , Me. You can spot them a mile away. I havent even given my opinion on the Eversolo yet sound wise, feature wise, Connections or anything. I merely answered No to the question and a few facts that took seconds to prove when someone bothered to look. I may come across as blunt but its soon sifts out the folk I will avoid engaging with. They will probably do the same with me but I dont care it works for me lol Its a shame folk accuse you of being a shill, these folk would be prime candidates for me to avoid in the future : )
Ahh Bless You x
Do you honestly think I'm bothered by Sarcasm?
Stick around, there are plenty of good people on this forum, many with much experience of both the technical side and many with with much, considered, subjective experience and, dare I say it, plenty who are interested in both approaches and taking a balanced view. As for being called a shill? I couldn’t care less, it was just an example of how a, thankfully small, number choose to put over the views.
