Eversolo Play Music Streamer Begins Shipping And Offers Multi-Room Audio
The new Eversolo Play is a compact all-in-one streamer with a 60W Class D amplifier built in and an ... More advanced user interface with touchscreen display.
Audio streaming brand Eversolo has begun shipping the new Eversolo Play, an all-in-one streaming amplifier that puts everything you need to stream contained in one compact box. All you need to do is add a pair of bookshelf speakers although it doesn't have a headphone jack for private listening.
First announced at the High-End Munich 2025 show last month, the new Eversolo Play combines an amplifier, DAC and streaming software in one compact device that enables users to listen to lossless audio as part of a home music system.
Equipped with the high-performance AK4493 DAC chip, the Eversolo Play has an impressive signal-to-noise ratio of ≥109dB (A-wt) and an ultra-low Total Harmonic Distortion of 0.0037%. The amplifier is a Class D type with a maximum output of 60W at 8Ω and 110W at 4Ω, which is plenty enough to drive a pair of bookshelf speakers
Eversolo Play provides a deep integration with many music streaming platforms including TIDAL, Qobuz, TuneIn Radio, Deezer and Amazon Music, to name a few. Close integration means a uniform operational logic and user interface that makes the Eversolo Play easy to use. There is support for streaming protocols like Roon Ready, Qobuz Connect and TIDAL Connect that can play music directly from the streaming service servers.
The Eversolo Play has a vibrant 5.5-inch color touchscreen display with a newly designed user ... More interface. There is a CD version available for an extra $100.
With both wireless streaming and network cloud support—including UPnP and WebDAV—the device can instantly access local NAS or cloud storage for playing files stored on a local library.
When accessing a local library, Eversolo Play has a self-developed library management system that supports multi-dimensional and cross-platform music data management. Users can find their music with global search functions that offers quick song retrieval from online sources as well as music stored on local music libraries.
With multi-room functionality and a built-in amplifier, the Eversolo Play is easy to set up as part of a whole-home Hi-Fi system. Users can have Eversolo Play units in different rooms for a multi-room music system. Tracks and volume can be remotely controlled using the Eversolo app.
Room Correction is another feature built into the device which uses a smartphone's microphone or an external USB microphone to analyze the acoustic characteristics of a room before automatically adjusting the EQ settings to compensate for the room's acoustic deficiencies. The result is an optimal and consistent musical experience all around the home.
At the rear of the Eversolo Play is a comprehensive selection of inputs and outputs, including ... More digital and analog inputs for connecting sources like a CD player and vinyl turntable.
The Eversolo Play is housed in a CNC unibody construction that's made from a high-strength aluminum alloy. The structure is rigid and is sufficiently shielded against external electromagnetic interference to keep the audio signal as pure as possible. The base of the device has a full-coverage heatsink to reduce internal component temperatures for a stable performance of PCBs and chips.
Perhaps the most eye-catching feature of the Eversolo Play is its vibrant 5.5-inch color touchscreen featuring ultra-low latency controls and a freshly designed user interface. Eversolo has upgraded the screen's appearance after feedback from customers. The result is simplified device controls split into six zones: "Music Services, Functions, Apps, Connect, Cloud and Settings.
The rear of the Eversolo Play has a Trigger In port for synchronizing system control with other HiFi components. Digital inputs include HDMI ARC for TV sound and optical and coaxial digital inputs for are connecting external audio devices like a CD player or digital radio tuner.
The Eversolo Play supports TIDAL, Qobuz, High-Res Audio, Deezer, Amazon Music and more.
Other connections include an output for driving a sub-woofer with optimized low-frequency performance for a bigger bass. A vinyl turntable can also be connected thanks to an RCA stereo line input with a phono stage that can handle both MM/MC cartridges
A pair of speakers can be connected directly to the Eversolo Play plus and there is also a USB 3.0 OTG port for expanding the device's storage capacity with external hard drives for holding a local music library. There is a USB Audio Out port that supports reference-grade Stereo DSD512 Native and PCM 768kHz/32bit formats and can deliver a pure digital stream to a high-end external DAC.
The Eversolo Play is available in two versions: the Eversolo Play Standard Edition is priced at $699 / €699 while the Eversolo CD Edition with built-in CD drive costs $799 / €799.

European leaders worry they're too reliant on U.S. tech
European governments may be reconsidering their use of American technology and services, according to a new report in The New York Times. The flashpoint seems to come after President Donald Trump sanctioned Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor at the International Criminal Court, over the ICC's decision to issue arrest warrants for Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant. In response, Microsoft turned off Khan's email address. Casper Klynge, a former diplomat who has also worked for Microsoft, told the NYT that Microsoft's action became 'the smoking gun that many Europeans had been looking for,' pushing them to look at alternative options. (Some ICC workers have reportedly switched over to Swiss email service Proton, for example.) 'If the U.S. administration goes after certain organizations, countries or individuals, the fear is American companies are obligated to comply,' Klynge said. For its part, Microsoft said it has subsequently made policy changes to protect customers similar situations, and it noted that it did not shut down the email accounts of four ICC judges who Trump sanctioned earlier this month. In addition, just this week, CEO Satya Nadella announced new 'sovereign solutions' to protect European institutions.

Nobel laureate concerned about AI-generated image of black hole at the center of our galaxy
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. The monster black hole at the center of our galaxy is spinning at ear "top speed," according to a new artificial intelligence (AI) model. The model, trained partially on complex telescope data that was previously considered too noisy to be useful, aims to create the most detailed black hole images ever. However, based on the questionable quality of the data, not all experts are convinced that the AI model is accurate. "I'm very sympathetic and interested in what they're doing," Reinhard Genzel, an astrophysicist at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Germany and one of the winners of the 2020 Nobel Prize in physics, told Live Science. "But artificial intelligence is not a miracle cure." For decades, scientists have been trying to observe and characterize Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the heart of our galaxy. In May 2022, they unveiled the first-ever image of this enormous object, but there were still a number of questions, such as how it behaves. Now, an international team of scientists has attempted to harness the power of AI to glean more information about Sagittarius A* from data collected by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). Unlike some telescopes, the EHT doesn't reside in a single location. Rather, it is composed of several linked instruments scattered across the globe that work in tandem. The EHT uses long electromagnetic waves — up to a millimeter in length — to measure the radius of the photons surrounding a black hole. However, this technique, known as very long baseline interferometry, is very susceptible to interference from water vapor in Earth's atmosphere. This means it can be tough for researchers to make sense of the information the instruments collect. "It is very difficult to deal with data from the Event Horizon Telescope," Michael Janssen, an astrophysicist at Radboud University in the Netherlands and co-author of the study, told Live Science. "A neural network is ideally suited to solve this problem." Janssen and his team trained an AI model on EHT data that had been previously discarded for being too noisy. In other words, there was too much atmospheric static to decipher information using classical techniques. Through this AI technique, they generated a new image of Sagittarius A*'s structure, and their picture revealed some new features. For example, the black hole appears to be spinning at "almost top speed," the researchers said in a statement, and its rotational axis also seems to be pointing toward Earth. Their results were published this month in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics. Pinpointing the rotational speed of Sagittarius A* would give scientists clues about how radiation behaves around supermassive black holes and offer insight into the stability of the disk of matter around it.

According to Genzel, the relatively low quality of the data going into the model could have biased it in unexpected ways. As a result, the new image may be somewhat distorted, he said, and shouldn't be taken at face value. In the future, Janssen and his team plan to apply their technique to the latest EHT data and measure it against real-world results. They hope this analysis will help to refine the model and improve future simulations. This story was provided by a sister site of
