Excellent Video! EverSolo should produce a series of these tutorials. This is a lot better than trial and error, and figure it out on your own approach.
Glad you liked it sir 🙏🏼
Don’t even own this streamer and I appreciate this. Well done!
Thank you.
Placing your tiny screw on the carpet is life on the edge. Glad you found it.
😂😂😂😂
Very sleek device. Professional video-capturing all the way, I like the first audio music-over piece... Superb.
Thank you sir 🙏🏼
have to give credit to cayin and lessfox as well, think its the first time i hear them 'working hard'
its really a susvara lol
Great review/info Thank you! Ripping - any idea what behind the scenes ripping software and album art / tagging software is being used?
No idea about the software used, but the album art and tagging is done on network.
But it is not 100% there yet, some albums do not get Album Art or tags.
Wonderful video
Thx for the sharing. ❤
welcome sir
Awesome VIdeo, Thanks for your help. very easy to understand.
Excellent presentation, if you can show us how to transfer music from PC with win 11.
Thanks so much for showing this
You are so welcome!
Great job, thank you!
Hi, Before doing the installation of my new internal SSD 4 TB, I watch your video to do a perfect job at the first time and avoiding any problems with the format. (Ex: If i have to format the device on a computer before the installation and which type of format is better for the Eversolo). With you're help i'm saving my time and doing everything without any problems. Thank You for you're help and continue in this way: creating great videos...!!! (Sorry for my poor English writing) and by the way, no, i'm not ZZ Top...
Thank you for the kind words,
I will keep making such videos which help others 🙏🏼
Thanx for the nice video. 👍 I have an external usb that the eversolo recognized. But when I use my windows 11 computer, the computer sees only the internal 32gb which is standard in the eversolo. My question is, when I put an SSD card in it, like you did on the video, will the card be recognized by my computer? Just like the standard 32gb? Regards, Ron
I think it does, let me check and confirm.
Can you rip sacd and dvd audio to the eversolo. I read somewhere that you can play multichannel through hdmi. Was wondering if they had to be ripped with specific software
I haven’t tried it yet, will give it a try.
But yes, you can play multichannel music from HDMI out.
You can assign a specific folder where the WAV/FLAC will be saved on the M.2 SSD drive?
Yes
Eversolo just released a new firmware update that includes a fix so that all or most USB CD/DVD readers can play & rip CDs. My Samsung reader didn't work consistently until a few days ago.
I am yet to update my device to the latest firmware, 1.80.
I’m thrilled to try out this new firmware. I’m still on holiday so I have to wait a while. I used Apples super drive but this was really slow but sounded ok.
@@TheVictoire22 I'm using an old Samsung cd/dvd writer. Takes 2-3 min to rip a CD once it recognizes the CD (album cover, song titles). Good luck.
Wow..great. Unit did not recognize by CD drive too. Cant wait to update and ripping my CD to SSD. TQ
@@AudioTnT is that a desktop drive with its own power supply? I expect that the usb drives will use slightly more power the usb of the eversolo can deliver causing the issues….
Outstanding !!! Looks like the ripping software is built in to the streamer ! How long does it take on average to RIP one CD ? How good a job does it handle META-DATA (e.g. album title, track title, artists etc) ?
It takes around 3_7 minutes depending upon the number of tracks. Meta data is handled via network, and its fine. Some CDs did not match it
Thanks, Amrut, for posting this very useful video!...Just purchased DMP-A6 and looking forward to playing with it...
...Forgot to ask who the artist and song name of the beautiful background music?
Thank you sir
thank u for ur video. u have helped me decide in buying this and putting my cds on it. its going to be new toy cheers im old nut not dead lol
thank u
p.s great music to video
Thank you 🙏🏻 glad you liked it
I apologize, it was my mistake, you have to enter the CD application....... logically...now it works perfectly.
Thanks for sharing. Can EverSolo rip SACD into DSD (512) files? Thank you.
We do not have CD drives which read SACD
I own a DMP A6 and I also added a 970 Evo Plus, 512 GB though...However, I formatted the drive in eversolo device and it would NOT recognize it, firmware 1.1.56, since than it looks they addressed the issue with 1.1.75 and I hope it is ok now. I did not try again as I formatted the drive in my PC and moved it into eversolo, so... I hope they fixed it. Otherwise the eversolo is a brilliant streamer/dac
looks like it is fixed
hello …. very good video… I wanted to know if it plays Dolby Atmos format from Apple Music or Tidal. Greetings from 🇨🇱
Sadly no
Nice video mate, I just received my DMP-A6 as a replacement of my Node and after getting it to work with my phone. After powering off the unit, I was surprised I couldn't power on again via app! Is that rookie error?
You cannot power it on via app, let it run in standby mode. Has a nice screensave for sometime before the screen blacks out.
This is miles ahead from Node, hope you enjoy using it too.
@@HiFi_Paradise cheers buddy, I will do that. I need to spend more time exploring the unit
@@jamesosullivan655I purchased the optional remote just so I could turn the unit on!
How is the installed SSD performing? I have considered using the 970 EVO Plus, but benchmark tests are showing it tends to heat up and people are recommending to use a radiator, which probably will not fit in the Eversolo. On the other hand I do not assume reading and writing audio files should be that demanding on the SSD. What do you think?
I have copied files over 1.5 TB to my SSD from NAS. It took around 15-18hours, the unit got warm but never shut down or gave me problems. I am impressed by the performance.
Radiator? Are you meaning a heat sink?
@@2shoestooYes, that is what I meant 😊
There are some Thermal (TAPE) that you can add if you run into problems (which are very unlikely) @@krzysztofgrzeszczuk6080
How do you transfer music to the SSD? Does it index the music? Does it offer a basic library and shuffle play? Thanks!
Via Pc or laptop it has a ip to it.
It does indexing, shuffle, favourite etc
@@HiFi_ParadiseThanks!
Does the A6 playback playlist created on another source (I have all my playlist created by my squeezebox server)
Not sure about this
How about the the A6 able to create playlist@@HiFi_Paradise
Yes that is possible in the music app 👍🏼
Is 2TB the largetst internal SSD you can put into the Eversolo?
Uptil 4TB SSD is supported
Is it possible to transfer the files you rip from cd to a hardrive connected to roon core nuc? Wirelessly?
Yes, I have demoed it in the video.
Hello!
When i read the manual it only talks about transfer from PC to DMP -A6 not from DMP -A6 to PC, can you confirm that this is possible?
If you see the video, I am accessing a NAS and I can transfer ripped music directly to this NAS.
Hello,
excellent video,
I just bought the same cd rw drive that can be seen in the video, it's in usb OTG but nothing happens, it can be seen that it reads the cd but nothing happens, do I have to configure something?
No configuration needed, strange. Can you check other CD?
@@HiFi_Paradise Yes I have tried several but it doesn't work
sad
On the box say F6V97AA#ABB it will be for this...
Have you tried putting it in MultiMedia Mode? some drives need this to be able to play from there (Sometimes you just have to press the eject button for a few seconds to activate it) Hope it helps
Is any chance to rip tracks from gramophone?I have teac nt 300 with usb out and can be used as a pre,so i can storage music on pc.What you think?Than you for your vid.
Can you try it out? will be interesting to know
Just use your phone camera to the the audio. It's not a high fidelity recording anyway.
Is it possibile to insert a SSD already full of music files without proceding with a format ssd??
Yes, if it is in exFat or NTFS format.
what model is the CD drive please? Thank you
Link and name in the description.
Thanks for publishing this video. This is what I was looking for.
Welcome sir
How many time it takes to show the Cd into screen after you insert the CD?
It takes around a minute or so, depends upon the CD drive you use.
Can you copy music from a USB stick to the SSD drive?
Yes
How good is Eversolo rip vs computer rip you copied from NAS? Any sound difference?
They are almost identical, it would depend on which software was used on a PC.
But going forward I would Rip on EverSolo.
How do I make my SSD the primary SSD so when im CD Ripping it goes straight to my SSD
Because the problem I have is that after I Ripped the CD's it went to the DMP a6 storage instead of the SSD I implented
it gives you an option to Select Storage while ripping, I can rip straight to SSD or Network drive too
The USB input only supplies 1.2A a direct connection without secondary power to the drive may be an issue. My Apple and Dell both draw 1.6A.
I have used a CD Drive with 2 inputs for power, but Eversolo couldn't recognise the CD at all.
Single usb worked better.
@@HiFi_Paradise Glad it’s working for you, I think it’s an oversight of Eversolo not to make this a 2A usb input.
I think its fine, not sure if software update fixes it.
@@HiFi_Paradise I would reach out to Eversolo to confirm this, I doubt an update would’ve changed available current at the usb input. Check your drive and see how much current it draws? Yes it work’s but long term use may damage the player.
@@HiFi_Paradise would you mind sharing the model of drive you’re using? My dell isn’t working with secondary power or direct. Thx
Can you transfer music to the streamer like it was a NAS drive using windows?
Yes, I am using the same.
Go through the video it's shown in it
Hi. I have RIP fail with some CDs, is it possible that some are copy protected?
Yes
I bought the Master Edition about 3 weeks ago. Problem recognising SSD (Samsung EVO 970), keeps dropping connection. Managed to rip 4 cds and the unit would not recognise cd player (Rioddas External CD Drive, USB 3.0 Portable CD/Dvd ). Tried anothe cd player (Hitachi-LG GP60 External DVD Drive) and it was not recognised either, display started to flash on and off. Sent it back to retailer who contacted Eversolo who said there is a problem with the power supply to cd and ssd at the same time. They think they can fix it with a firmware update. Still waiting for that. I updated the system when I received it 3 weeks ago.
Make sure you inserted the SSD properly, I didn’t have any trouble ripping multiple CDs.
Unit never went into loop.
SSD was properly inserted. I had to remove and replace several times as it was constantly dropping out. What is meant by "going into loop" ?@@HiFi_Paradise
Never had trouble
I have had exactly the same problem, the display flashes on and off this resets my album file amongst others back to the start so can't play what I want. The ripper works but refused a lot of cds ,the album art is also missing on a few cds. I had my eversolo replaced but have now got the same problems, i have the latest firmware edition but this has not changed the performance. The loop now stays on sporadically , it's all so frustrating , I am sure this is more common than a lot of people think. I would be very grateful for some possible solutions, I don't have any streaming issues at all.
I don't have an update on my previous comment. I returned the dmp and was fully refunded. Still waiting for information on the next firmware update. I am however surprised that some stay they have had no problems with this whatsoever. Eversolo say they have recognized the problem as power related and will correct it through fm update. Still waiting.
There are many original CDs that Eversolo can’t retrieve information and also don’t play with Apple CD devise for Mac Book Pro. I asked them and I am waiting for their comments yet !
Information is taken from the internet, but I think option to select album can be a better choice to have. Something which can be added in future versions.
wow ur using all high-end equipment's its cool stuf
Thank you sir
still now ur using q acoustic towers @@HiFi_Paradise
I have sold them couple years back.
Bro if u don’t mine can u share ur equipment details each and everything iam interested to setup like you…….. still Iam using denon 2700 h taga harmony tower
Hi my setup is strictly for music, do not have a home theatre.
Does this output to a tv the same as what is on it's screen ?
No, sadly
Can it play cassette players, and record from cassette deck via eversolo?
no
Are you in India? Where did you source the DAC from?
Yes sir,
Vivid HiFi
I have a 20 year old SACD player I use as a transport. Can I rip CDs over COAX? Otherwise, I'll have to get one of these small USB CD players.
not possible,
needs a USB CD Player
@HiFi_Paradise
Thanks for the reply.
Can you rip SACDs?
I know, that's a doozy.
No sadly, only normal Audio CDs
Which amplifier is the device connected to?
SMSL VMV A1 and Willsenton R8
So anyone know of a usb drive that plays sacd and dvd audio?
not possible
Hi. Can u play videos files? can u download kodi ?
Did not try it
Can I play movies that are on the SSD to my TV?
No
Hello fellow Hindi music lover and Eversolo user! Can you rip Blu Ray discs using this method?
I don't think so, not tried but this is strictly for audio ripping
Your hand was in the way!
Sorry
I am a customer provided if I can connect this devise to my age old preamp Nikko.. It has a limited inputs available tunner and tape 1&2.. Let me know with you think
yes you can use tunner input
Thanks@@HiFi_Paradise
With Audio please...can't get exactly what you are doing
在英國有售嗎
sorry can you write in English?
此机可次入ＣＤ落ssd
can you write in English please?
It wouldn't hurt to trim the claws on your hands!
😂
Really? Working on electronics on a synthetic rug (and sliding it around on it)?! And setting the SSD on it? I hope you have super high humidity. That’s just asking for static.
I am FLASH ⚡
I have 2 drives and none will rip more than 1 album. Fix it Eversolo
are they usb 2.0 or 3.0 drives?
@@HiFi_Paradise 3. And I have one with a usb 3 and a c and one with just the usb 3. None work
I think USB 2.0 should work, mine is 2.0
I thought about getting one of these, but i can do it cheaper with my laptop and external hard drive connected to my DAC
Noise Noise Noise!
Narration would help but I guess it’s beyond your budget.
sadly yes 🙃
don't do what this guy did. static kills electronics.
what static are you talking about?
Dude please sort those nails out, it's borderline disturbing.
Done 😂
A6 can be buggy. Beware. Wait for another 6 months to a year may be wiser.
I haven’t found any bug yet that can be annoying, almost all streamers have some bugs which software updates iron out.
I think the music is much better than the video
Glad you liked the music, thank you for being the unique one who did not like the video.
classical music? copyright? poor choice for content
Ok thanks

A man with long fingernails has as disgusting a case as can be. Vomiting... You would never want to shake hands with a man like that. He doesn't understand anything about hygiene.
is it possible to transfer music files from laptop or pc
yes, easily via WiFi. You can do it from a broserr on Pc or laptop.
EverSolo acts as a NAS too
CD .... Antiques
