{"product_id":"eversolo-t8-streaming-transport","title":"Eversolo T8 Streaming Transport","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Eversolo T8 is a streaming transport without a built-in DAC. It fetches music from your network and streaming services and passes it on to your external converter via USB, I²S, AES\/EBU, coaxial or optical. It was awarded the EISA Digital Player 2026–2027.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe T8 is the more compact variant of the Eversolo transports, with isolated digital outputs, a 4N copper toroidal transformer and a 6-inch touchscreen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the T8?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it separates the network side from the converter and gives the DAC a clean digital signal. The outputs are isolated, a femto clock takes care of the timing, and it is Roon Ready too. Spotify Connect Lossless works from firmware V1.5.60, and Qobuz Connect and TIDAL Connect are included as well. Two SSD bays take up to 8 TB each (SSDs not included). Room correction (Evotune) and a 10-band equaliser are built in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe T8 does not sound by itself, it hands the signal over to your DAC. A clean clock and the separation of the circuits are meant to give the converter a calm data stream. The EISA award for 2026–2027 offers orientation, but in the end your own ear decides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the T8 for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who owns a good DAC and is looking for a high-quality source. Plainly put: without a DAC the T8 stays silent, as there is neither a headphone output nor analogue outputs. If you want everything in one device, choose a DMP streamer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe T8 is an exceptionally well-made transport and the more affordable choice compared with the T10. The combination of isolation, clock and operation also convinced the EISA jury. We are happy to advise you at HD Zürisee on whether it suits your DAC.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDevice type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Streaming transport without DAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDigital outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e USB audio (PCM 768 kHz\/32 bit, DSD512), AES\/EBU, optical, coaxial (PCM 192 kHz\/24 bit, DoP64), I²S (8 modes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNetwork:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gigabit LAN, SFP (module not included), WiFi 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStreaming:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roon Ready, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Spotify Connect Lossless (from firmware V1.5.60), DLNA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisplay:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6-inch touchscreen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMemory:\u003c\/strong\u003e 64 GB internal, 4 GB RAM, 2 × SSD bay, up to 8 TB each (SSD not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower supply:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toroidal transformer with 4N copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClocking:\u003c\/strong\u003e Femto clock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput level:\u003c\/strong\u003e not applicable – pure digital output without DAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadphone output:\u003c\/strong\u003e not available – transport without analogue outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAward:\u003c\/strong\u003e EISA Digital Player 2026–2027\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × H × D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 315 × 88 × 230 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.5 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e T8, remote control, power cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich award has the Eversolo T8 received?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe T8 was awarded the EISA Digital Player 2026–2027. EISA is an association of specialist magazines from Europe and beyond. The award does not replace your own listening test, but it helps with orientation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the T8 need a DAC?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the T8 has no built-in converter. It passes the digital signal on to your DAC via USB, I²S, AES\/EBU, coaxial or optical. So for the analogue part you need another device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich streaming services and standards does the T8 support?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt supports Roon Ready, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect and DLNA. Spotify Connect Lossless works from firmware V1.5.60. A subscription is optional, your own collection plays without any service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow much storage can I use in the T8?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e64 GB is available internally, plus two SSD bays with up to 8 TB each. The SSDs are not included. Alternatively, you can use your NAS on your home network.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Eversolo T8 at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause we work out with you whether your DAC needs a transport and which output fits.
