With the EC Play, Shanling is not simply pursuing high-fidelity sound — it is recreating the classic experience of portable CD players as a convenient and everyday part of life. The EC Play is smaller than any of its predecessors, weighing just 418g while still featuring a durable aluminium construction.

Active Magnetic Clamp | Proven EC Zero System

The advanced active magnetic clamp continuously adjusts its position and pressure on the disc, improving rotational stability while significantly reducing unwanted mechanical noise and vibration from the CD drive.

Custom CD System | Designed by CD Experts

Utilising a custom CD drive system developed by engineers with decades of CD player experience, the EC Play delivers desktop-level playback performance with excellent accuracy and full gapless playback support.

Cirrus Logic CS43198 | Hi-Fi Grade DAC

The trusted flagship-grade Cirrus Logic DAC delivers an excellent balance of precise technical performance and engaging musical presentation. Shanling’s custom tuning further enhances the natural and enjoyable sound signature.

Dual SGM8262 Amplifiers | Powerful Headphone Output

Dedicated headphone amplifiers provide a transparent and powerful output of up to 700mW @ 32Ω. Combined with accurate 100-step volume control, the EC Play pairs equally well with sensitive earphones and more demanding full-size headphones.

Bluetooth 6.0 | Two-Way Connection

Use the EC Play as a Bluetooth source to connect directly to wireless headphones or speakers, or switch to Bluetooth receiver mode to transform the player into a Bluetooth DAC/amp for streaming music from smartphones and other devices.

USB DAC Mode | Full Hi-Res Audio Support

An advanced USB module provides asynchronous connection to computers and tablets, supporting high-resolution playback up to PCM 384kHz and DSD256, allowing the DAC section to perform at its full capability.

More Than a Portable CD Player | Integrates Easily into Home Hi-Fi Systems

Thanks to its multifunctional design, the EC Play fits comfortably into desktop setups, bedside systems or larger home Hi-Fi speaker systems.
