Audiophiles seeking the next leap in sound performance will find much to admire in the newly launched Eversolo DAC-Z10. Positioned as the flagship digital-to-analogue converter from Eversolo, this unit blends advanced AKM architecture, dual-mono engineering, high-resolution capability and modern connectivity into a single box. Beyond being "just a DAC," the DAC-Z10 doubles as a high-quality pre-amplifier and headphone amplifier-making it a versatile centrepiece for a serious stereo system.

Below we explore its major features, how it integrates into the broader Eversolo ecosystem (including models like the Eversolo DAC‑Z6, Eversolo DMP‑A10, Eversolo AMP‑F10 and Eversolo DMP‑A8), and why it matters for modern high-fidelity setups.

Key Features of the DAC-Z10

Dual-Mono AKM Architecture & Fully Isolated Design

At the heart of the DAC-Z10 is a dual-mono AKM configuration, meaning the left and right channels each have their own AKM DAC chips (commonly AK4191 digital + AK4499 analogue) and separate signal paths.

This is paired with Eversolo’s proprietary Fully Isolated Architecture (FIA™), which uses physically separated domains for left-channel analogue, right-channel analogue and digital circuitry.

The practical benefits: reduced crosstalk between channels, improved stereo imaging and cleaner detail retrieval. For listeners who demand high fidelity, this architecture lays a strong foundation.

Ultra-Low Jitter Clocking & Power Supply Isolation

The DAC-Z10 includes an advanced clock system anchored by an OCXO (Oven-Controlled Crystal Oscillator) combined with femtosecond-grade PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) reconstruction to minimise jitter. 

An external clock input (10 MHz / 25 MHz) with both 50Ω and 75Ω impedance options allows integration into high-end master-clock systems. 

Power supply architecture is equally serious: three separate linear or toroidal transformers each dedicated to left analog, right analog and digital sections ensure minimal interference and noise coupling.

Together, this architecture helps deliver quieter backgrounds, better transient control and more accurate reproduction of complex musical material.

High-Resolution Audio & Wide Connectivity

The DAC-Z10 can handle PCM up to 32-bit/768 kHz and native DSD512 decoding-making it fully capable of today’s high-resolution audio formats.

Input options include USB (galvanically isolated), I²S (with eight mode configurations), dual optical, dual coaxial, AES/EBU, HDMI ARC/eARC and even Bluetooth via a Qualcomm QCC5125 module for high-quality wireless streaming.

The variety of inputs ensures flexibility for modern streaming sources, computers, transports and even TV/ARC integration.

Pre-Amplifier & Headphone Amplifier Functionality

Unlike many DACs that function only as converters, the DAC-Z10 includes a fully balanced analogue pre-amplifier stage with XLR and RCA inputs/outputs and up to +10 dB of gain.

It also houses a dedicated headphone amplifier section with automatic impedance detection (for 16 Ω and 32 Ω headphones) and up to ~1 W of power in high-gain mode.

This means you can use the DAC-Z10 not only to decode digital signals but also to drive power amplifiers or active speakers directly, or serve as a high-quality headphone front end.

Display, Control & User Experience

On the front panel, the DAC-Z10 features an 8.8-inch IPS touchscreen interface allowing input selection, display of format information, volume control and customisable VU meters (modern or vintage style).

Remote control is available via a companion mobile app (Eversolo Control) for volume, input switching and settings.

These user-friendly features give the unit modern convenience without compromising hi-fi pedigree.

How It Fits Into the Eversolo Ecosystem - Explore Eversolo at SoundTrails

While the Eversolo DAC-Z10 represents the newest and most advanced addition to Eversolo’s portfolio, it is currently not available at SoundTrails. However, SoundTrails proudly features several other exceptional Eversolo products that share the same precision engineering and audiophile-grade craftsmanship. These models allow enthusiasts to experience Eversolo’s renowned sonic performance while anticipating the DAC-Z10’s arrival in the near future.

At SoundTrails, music lovers can explore the following Eversolo components that perfectly complement the DAC-Z10’s design philosophy and engineering DNA:

Eversolo DAC-Z6 Digital-to-Analogue Converter

A stellar DAC that showcases Eversolo’s commitment to transparent, detailed sound reproduction. Ideal for audiophiles seeking high performance without the flagship price, the Eversolo DAC-Z6 delivers rich tonality and excellent dynamics, serving as a strong introduction to Eversolo’s design ethos.

Eversolo DMP-A10 Digital Audio Music Streamer

This premium streamer and DAC/pre-amp hybrid stands out as a versatile digital source for any modern hi-fi setup. Its clean digital outputs and superb interface make it a natural partner for higher-end DACs like the DAC-Z10, ensuring uncompromised data transfer and seamless system integration.

Eversolo DMP-A8 Music Streamer

A beautifully engineered network music streamer that blends refinement with user-friendly operation. The Eversolo DMP-A8 provides high-resolution streaming, precise signal handling, and effortless connectivity-making it a fantastic choice for those who value both sound quality and simplicity.

Eversolo AMP-F10 Stereo Power Amplifier

Designed to deliver pure, controlled, and dynamic power, the Eversolo AMP-F10 complements Eversolo’s DACs and streamers with finesse. When paired with the DMP-A10 or DMP-A8, it forms a powerful, cohesive system capable of reproducing music with remarkable realism and scale.

Together, these products available at SoundTrails embody Eversolo’s signature balance of technical precision and musical authenticity. They also provide an ideal platform for listeners preparing to integrate the Eversolo DAC-Z10 once it becomes available — ensuring complete system synergy and future-ready performance.

Why These Features Matter - and to Whom

For the discerning listener, the DAC-Z10 brings value in multiple ways:

• The dual-mono architecture and isolated power/clock design matter when your system is capable of resolving subtle differences in timing, imaging and dynamic contrast.
• High-resolution support and broad connectivity mean it can serve as the heart of a modern streaming + hi-fi system, rather than just a legacy converter.
• Pre-amp and headphone amp functionality reduce component count (you may not need a separate pre-amp or dedicated headphone amplifier).
• Display and control features enhance usability, making it more than just a “technical” component-it integrates into everyday use.

However, to extract real benefit from the DAC-Z10 you’ll need a system that can match its potential: a good quality streamer or transport, cables, power quality, a high-fidelity amplifier and speakers or headphones capable of revealing detail.

Conclusion

The Eversolo DAC-Z10 stands as a serious statement in the high-end audio world: it embodies precision engineering, flexibility, modern connectivity and top-tier conversion abilities. If you're building a high-fidelity system-especially with the support of a specialist retailer like SoundTrails, and you’re looking for “one box” that can serve as DAC, pre-amp and headphone amp, the DAC-Z10 deserves strong consideration.

In the larger Eversolo ecosystem, it complements models like the Eversolo DAC-Z6,  Eversolo DAC-Z8,  DMP-A10, DMP-A8 and AMP-F10 to form a coherent upgrade path and system architecture. For high-end audiophiles, this launch highlights how technological ambition (dual-mono AKM DACs, ultra-stable clocking, dedicated power domains) can converge with user-friendly features and modern system integration.
