I discovered information about a master edition of the Eversolo streamer from a website in France. It seems to be focused more at the high end market. Better clock and better power supply. I attempted to attach a link but it seems that is against the rules here. Even better, in my opinion, would be a Master Edition but without a built in DAC. I already own a great DAC and I don’t really want to pay for another one if I can help it. I am new to this forum. Can anyone direct me to a method for me to inquire to the company directly as to plans to introduce the Master Edition in the US?

Thank you. I’m new to this site, so I haven’t seen this. Just saw the email address for Eversolo sales on Eversolo website. Sent them an inquiry about availability of Master Edition in USA. I hope they respond.
The standard edition is now listed on Amazon. The Master Edition is now listed on AliExpress and a place out of Chicago- Saturday Audio. Price is $1299.
I really wish I had access to both versions in my own system because that is really what’s required to answer the snake oil question. That’s not gonna happen so you’re just going to have to take a position and live with it. Much depends on just how resolving your system is, I suspect. No one wants to throw away $450. That’s a serious up charge given how inexpensive the base unit is. On the other hand, clock quality is well known to be integral to better sound quality and in the high end world $450 is chump change.
I’m trying to wrap my mind about the actual differences between the two versions. At first it appeared that the master edition had an upgraded power supply but now it appears that reference was talking about the standard version in general not the master edition specifically. Is the upgraded op chip they mentioned used in the DAC section and therefore immaterial if using to feed an external DAC? If so, it appears the difference comes down to the clock and the gold medallion on the front. What am I missing here?
They exchange the crystals and the opamps. That is is. Not exactly snake-oil but it is very expensive though. Value the swap at max 100/200 dollar including the effort to do. Will you be able to hear it? Possibly that crystal can be heard on a very nice setup with a good source but the amps probably only can be measured. Just my 2 cents.
The best price for shipment to the US is via audiophonics France. No fees, no taxes, and super fast ups shipping.
I compared them level matched and unsighted. https://www.puriteaudio.co.uk/post/eversolo-dmp-a-6-versus-eversolo-dmp-a-6-gold Keith
