Eversolo DAC-Z10 DAC & Preamplifier
The Eversolo DAC-Z10 takes your digital music and turns it into beautifully clean, natural analogue sound. Its Fully Isolated Architecture keeps the digital and analogue sections completely separate, preventing interference and preserving the purity of your audio. At its core are dual AK4191 + AK4499 DACs, with each pair dedicated to the left and right channels for accurate, true-to-life stereo output. A fully balanced preamp with dual-channel R2R volume control ensures wide dynamic range and extremely low distortion.
Power is handled just as carefully: the Eversolo DAC-Z10 uses three independent linear power supplies so each channel operates in a quiet, low-noise environment. With XLR and RCA inputs supporting +10dB gain, it easily integrates with virtually any source. Designed for listeners who want nothing less than absolute fidelity, the DAC-Z10 brings out the character, emotion, and subtle details in every recording.
From digital to analogue, the DAC-Z10 lets music breathe and unfold in its purest form. Often described as a “next-gen flagship hi-fi DAC for uncompromising audiophiles,” it’s built to extract the finest nuances from your collection.
Its performance starts with a dual-mono AKM flagship DAC setup, paired with an oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) and a femtosecond-grade PLL system—an ultra-stable, low-jitter clock design that keeps timing precise. The IIS input handles PCM up to 32-bit/768kHz and DSD512 Native decoding, ensuring full compatibility with high-resolution formats.
Wireless audio doesn’t get overlooked either: the Qualcomm QCC5125 chip delivers near-wired sound quality over Bluetooth. And powering everything are three custom-built toroidal transformers that feed clean, isolated power to key circuits, reducing crosstalk and electromagnetic noise.
The result is a DAC engineered to deliver music exactly as it was meant to be heard—rich, detailed, and effortlessly engaging.
DAC
The DAC-Z10 is built on Eversolo’s Fully Isolated Architecture (FIA), which completely separates the digital and analogue domains to minimise 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 analogue 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 analogue inputs with up to +10dB gain. Paired with a precision R2R analogue 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 minimises 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
Accurate timing is key to capturing every musical nuance. By supporting an external high-precision clock, the DAC-Z10 takes clock stability and accuracy to the next level.

Grounding Post
The DAC-Z10’s grounding post channels noise away, eliminating even minor interference and preserving the purity of each note.
8-Mode IIS Digital Audio Input
Via IIS digital audio input, the DAC-Z10 offers 8 switchable modes and supports up to 768kHz/ 32Bit PCM and DSD512 Native. Its fully isolated hardware design separates signal and ground between devices, ensuring clean signals and enhanced audio clarity.
Pure USB Audio Input
USB is often the most convenient choice for digital audio, but electrical noise and ground loops can subtly compromise its purity. The DAC-Z10 introduces an isolated USB Audio input, transmitting only the clean data while blocking all electrical interference.
Isolated AES/EBU Input
To preserve signal purity, the DAC-Z10 features a dedicated isolated AES/EBU input, fully separating electrical noise between front-end and back-end devices. This isn’t just an engineering solution—it’s our commitment to pure sound.
Dual Optical Inputs
The DAC-Z10 supports dual optical inputs, offering greater flexibility and connectivity for your audio system. With dual optical inputs, the DAC-Z10 can connect to two audio devices simultaneously, providing a more versatile listening experience.
Dual Coaxial Inputs
The DAC-Z10 features dual isolated coaxial inputs, supporting up to 192kHz/24bit. This design effectively shields against external interference, preserving every detail with clarity and precision. Dual source input lets you switch devices effortlessly without any signal loss.
