The AMP-F8 is a stereo power amplifier by Eversolo that delivers 180 watts x 2 channels into 8 ohms and 280 watts x 2 into 4 ohms. Bridged to mono it makes 500 watts into 8 ohms; bridged operation into 4 ohms is not supported. It was released in August 2026. It is a 2-channel design using a Class A/B output stage. Bridged to mono it delivers 500 watts mono into 8 ohms, which is the usual way to use a pair of these on a demanding speaker. Speakers connect via binding posts. A minimum impedance of 4 ohms makes it compatible with a wide range of loudspeakers. The Eversolo AMP-F8 has an MSRP of $1,800.

Performance Specs

One of the most important factors when deciding on an integrated amplifier is its power ratings and compatibility with your speaker's impedance requirements. The Eversolo AMP-F8 is rated at 180 watts RMS into 8-ohms. Eversolo provides this wattage at a THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) of 0.003% which is an important indicator of distortion at the given values (lower THD is better).

Here are the main highlights of its performance specs:

  • 180 watts into 8-ohms (10 Hz-30 kHz) at 0.003%
  • 280 watts into 4-ohms
  • 4-ohms Min Impedance (allows compatibility with a wide range of loudspeakers)
  • 115dB Signal to Noise Ratio

Which speakers suit the Eversolo AMP-F8?

180 W into 8 ohms, 280 W into 4, rated down to 4 ohms. We rank every passive speaker we cover against it on power, impedance safety and current delivery.

We check power, impedance safety and current delivery - not just watts.

Need more power?

Eversolo AMP-F8 is rated at 180 watts into 8 ohms, which puts it in our 121 to 180 watts band. The next band up is Over 180 watts, which is worth about 2.3dB more output. That is a real difference in headroom on peaks, and a modest one in how loud the system plays - power and loudness are not the same thing.

  • PS Audio Stellar M700 – 350 watts, $1,749 compare
  • Schiit Tyr F – 200 watts, $1,699 compare
  • Schiit Wotan – 200 watts, $1,999 compare

Before buying watts, check what your speakers actually need: the amp and speaker matcher works it out from their sensitivity, impedance and your room. Plenty of systems are better served by the 91 to 120 watts band and better speakers.

When pairing the Eversolo AMP-F8 with a passive Bookshelf (Stand mount) or Passive Floor Standing (Tower) speaker, you have to check if their Max Power Range is below the max wattage of the amp for the given impedance levels. Operating your amp outside of this max range may damage the speakers.


What size of room is the Eversolo AMP-F8 Amplifier good for?

An essential deciding factor is the size of the room in which you intend to employ the Eversolo AMP-F8 amplifier. Here, taking into account its maximum power parameters, we analyzed its applicability to various size environments:

Bluetooth Connectivity

Eversolo AMP-F8 doesn't have bluetooth connectivity feature. In order to stream your music via bluetooth, the easiest way is to connect an external bluetooth receiver to your Eversolo AMP-F8. Two bluetooth receivers that we recommend are the iFi Zen Blue V2 and the Audioengine B1.

Among the amps in the same price range, these are the 5 amps that have Bluetooth Connectivity:

  • Rotel A14 MKII - MSRP 1600$ - Compare w/ AMP-F8
  • Peachtree Carina - MSRP 1999$ - Compare w/ AMP-F8
  • NAD C 389 - MSRP 1999$ - Compare w/ AMP-F8
  • LEAK Stereo 230 - MSRP 1695$ - Compare w/ AMP-F8
  • JBL SA550 C - MSRP 1999$ - Compare w/ AMP-F8

Phono Input

Eversolo AMP-F8 doesn't have a phono input so in order to play your vinyl albums, Eversolo AMP-F8 has to be paired with a Phono Preamp that is MM (Moving Magnet) or/and MC (Moving COil) depending on your cartridge type.

Balanced connections

Eversolo AMP-F8 has a balanced XLR input. A balanced cable carries the signal twice, on two conductors of opposite polarity. Interference picked up along the way lands on both equally and cancels when the two are recombined at the far end, so the longer the cable run and the noisier the surroundings, the more the connection is worth. Whether a balanced connection also yields more power depends on how the amplifier is built inside - some are balanced end to end, others convert to single-ended internally and deliver the same power either way, so it is worth reading the maker's own wording rather than assuming.

Eversolo AMP-F8 Pros and Cons

Drawn from the published figures on this page, not from listening.

  • ✓180 watts per channel into 8 ohms is more than most rooms and most speakers will ever ask for.
  • ✓Damping factor of 400 means a low output impedance and firm control over a woofer.
  • ✓Signal-to-noise ratio of 115dB, so the amplifier itself should be inaudible between tracks.
  • ✓Distortion is specified at 0.003%, an order of magnitude below what is generally held to be audible.
  • ✓Can be bridged to mono, so a pair can be used as two larger monoblocks.
  • ✓Balanced XLR inputs, worth having on a long cable run.
  • ✓Has VU meters.
  • ✓At 265mm wide it fits where a full-size component will not.
  • ✓Made in China.
  • ✗A power amplifier has no volume control and no input selection - it needs a preamplifier, or a source with a variable output, in front of it.

Frequently Asked Questions about Eversolo AMP-F8

How much power does the Eversolo AMP-F8 have?

The Eversolo AMP-F8 delivers 180 watts x 2 channels into 8 ohms and 280 watts x 2 into 4 ohms. Bridged to mono it makes 500 watts into 8 ohms; bridged operation into 4 ohms is not supported. It increases its output into 4 ohms, so it has some headroom for harder-to-drive speakers.

Does the Eversolo AMP-F8 use vacuum tubes?

No. The Eversolo AMP-F8 is a solid-state amplifier - there are no vacuum tubes in it.

What amplifier class is the Eversolo AMP-F8?

The Eversolo AMP-F8 uses a Class A/B amplifier design. Class A/B is the traditional linear design: it runs warmer and is less efficient than Class D, but it is long valued for its natural, low-distortion sound.

Does the Eversolo AMP-F8 have a built-in DAC?

No. The Eversolo AMP-F8 has no built-in DAC, so a digital source such as a streamer or CD transport needs its own converter, or you connect it over analogue.

Can I connect a turntable to the Eversolo AMP-F8?

No. The Eversolo AMP-F8 has no phono input, so a turntable needs an external phono preamp (or a deck with one built in) before it can be connected.

Does the Eversolo AMP-F8 have Bluetooth?

No. The Eversolo AMP-F8 does not have Bluetooth built in; you would need an external Bluetooth receiver connected to one of its inputs.

Does the Eversolo AMP-F8 have a headphone output?

No. The Eversolo AMP-F8 does not have a headphone output, so headphone listening needs a separate headphone amplifier.

How much does the Eversolo AMP-F8 cost?

The Eversolo AMP-F8 has a manufacturer's list price (MSRP) of $1,800.
