Engineered for discerning audiophiles who demand uncompromising fidelity, the DAC-Z10 reveals the authentic character and finest nuances within your music collection with elegant, purposeful design.

From digital to analog, the DAC-Z10 lets music unfold in its purest form. A DAC that reveals the authentic character and finest details of sound. The Eversolo DAC-Z10 is praised as “a next-gen flagship hi-fi DAC designed for uncompromising audiophiles.” From digital to analog, the DAC-Z10 lets music unfold in its purest form A DAC that reveals the authentic character and finest details of sound.

It starts with a dual-mono AKM flagship DAC configuration, working alongside an oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) combined with a femtosecond-grade PLL system to deliver an “ultra-stable, low-jitter clock architecture.”

Meanwhile, the device’s IIS input supports PCM 32-bit/768kHz and DSD512 Native decoding. Also onboard is a Qualcomm QCC5125 chip that enables near-wired sound quality over wireless transmission, while “three custom-designed toroidal transformers” provide dedicated power pathways that, according to Eversolo, minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic noise.

DAC

The DAC-Z10 is built on Eversolo’s Fully Isolated Architecture (FIA), which completely separates the digital and analog domains to minimize interference and preserve signal purity.  DAC architecture features two sets of AK4191 + AK4499 DACs for independent left and right channels, combined with a fully balanced analog preamplifier that employs precise dual-channel R2R volume control. This configuration achieves superior DNR and lower THD+N, unlocking the full potential of the music.

Fully Balanced Preamplifier

The DAC-Z10 features a high-performance fully balanced preamplifier, supporting both XLR and RCA analog inputs with up to +10dB gain. Paired with a precision R2R analog volume control network, it delivers ultra-low noise and distortion, significantly enhancing dynamic range and signal integrity, allowing every nuance of the music to be reproduced with clarity and authenticity.

Three Independent Power Supplies

With three independent toroidal transformers for left channel, right channel, and system power, the DAC-Z10 maintains ultra-low noise down to 42μV. This design minimizes interference, giving each channel its own clean, isolated voltage support for a stable and detailed sound.

Dual Decoding Modules

Built on a fully balanced architecture, the DAC-Z10 features dual independent AK4191 + AK4499 DAC modules for the left and right channels. Combined with AKM’s Velvet Sound™ technology, it strikes the perfect balance between precision and tonal richness.

R2R Volume Control

The DAC-Z10 employs a precise R2R resistor array for volume control, preserving the original signal at every level. From quiet listening to full volume, every nuance remains intact, delivering clean, accurate, and faithful sound.

Phase-Locked Loop Technology

The DAC-Z10 integrates an OCXO temperature-controlled crystal oscillator and PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) technology to achieve precise clock reconstruction. Accurate timing is fundamental to high-resolution audio reproduction, and with the stability of the OCXO and the precision of PLL correction, the DAC-Z10 ensures that every note is delivered exactly as intended.

External Clock Support
