Device Name

This is how your player will appear in your StreamMagic app and on your home network when using services like Spotify, Chromecast built-in and TIDAL Connect.

Giving your player a unique name makes it easier to distinguish when using streaming and smart home services.

AirPlay Name

This is how your player will appear when using AirPlay or the Apple Home app.

Standby Mode

This selects what type of standby mode your player will use.

Network Standby means your player will still be controllable by the StreamMagic app and other network services.

If Eco mode is chosen your player will use even less power in standby but will need to be switched on either by the front panel or the remote control.

Automatic Power Down

This sets how long your player will wait while inactive before switching in to standby.

Display Brightness

This sets the brightness of your player’s display. If set to ‘Off’ the display will show for a few seconds after any change and then switch off.

Roon Ready DSD

This will allow you to choose how Roon provides DSD content.

Use DoP for digital output – If your device does support native DSD in DoP format.

Use PCM for digital output – If your device doesn’t support native DSD.

Tone Control*

We’ve tuned Evo to deliver Great British Sound, however we realise how personal and subjective listening can be so we’ve added a digital tone control to allow you to tailor the sound of Evo to your own preference.

If you’d rather leave your sound untouched, you can disable the tone control completely and audio will bypass all processing, leaving Evo performing exactly as we tuned it.

Note: Tone control will not affect DSD streams and will not be present on Bluetooth output.

Volume Limit

This sets the maximum volume that other streaming services like AirPlay, Spotify, TIDAL Connect and Chromecast built-in can set. The front panel, remote control and StreamMagic app volume controls can override this setting.

Early Update

Setting this to ‘On’ will let you try out the latest firmware ahead of general release.
