By Kevin · Hifi Guy NC Charlotte, NC Power amp · Pre-order
Pre-order — $1,800.* Scheduled to ship September 2026. Pay on Shopify. The AMP-F8 is not in Charlotte yet. Listening sessions are by appointment — Eversolo T8 and Z10, Chord Hugo TT2, the DMP-A8 Gen 1 demo, and other pieces on the rack, including a Bluesound Node Icon.
*Sales tax where applicable.

The AMP-F8 is the matching Eversolo power amp if the system is already a streamer or DAC, or if it’s time to step up from an all-in-one Play / A6 / A8 into separates.

What it is

A stereo Class AB power amp with Class A bias at low level, a linear toroidal supply, three pairs of MOSFETs per channel, and those analog VU meters on the face. XLR and RCA in. Trigger or 20-minute signal-sense standby. Not a streamer, not a DAC — just amplification.

  • 180 W RMS / 8 Ω per channel · 280 W / 4 Ω
  • 500 W / 8 Ω bridged (4 Ω not supported in bridge)
  • THD+N 0.003% @ 1 kHz · SNR ≥115 dB A-weighted
  • Damping factor > 400 @ 8 Ω
  • XLR (10 kΩ) and RCA (10 kΩ) inputs · 23 dB / 29 dB gain
  • VU backlight switch · 115 / 230 V selector on the underside
  • 388 × 265 × 119 mm · 15.9 kg

Where it sits vs F2 and F10

AMP-F2 is the Class D compact at $799. AMP-F10 is the bigger Class AB flagship at $2,480 (200 W / 8 Ω, 950 W bridged / 4 Ω). The F8 is the middle: real Class AB, VU meters, enough current for most floorstanders, without the F10’s size or price. Full numbers: F Series comparison.
