Shanling EC Mini

The compact Shanling EC Mini offers an impressive range of functions and is a true all-rounder. It can play CDs, music from microSD cards or storage media, send and receive Bluetooth and can be used as a USB DAC. The bidirectional USB-C port enables direct connection to external DACs. Alternatively, the EC Mini can be connected to a computer via a USB cable and used as a high-quality USB DAC. The bidirectional Bluetooth 5.0 functionality not only enables wireless streaming of music from a smartphone to the EC Mini, but also connection to Bluetooth headphones or speakers for wireless music playback. Supported Bluetooth codecs such as LDAC, aptX and AAC ensure high-quality wireless sound quality. The headphone outputs (3.5 mm and 4.4 mm) offer versatile connection options for headphones. At the heart of the EC Mini are two ESS ES9219 DACs, which are integrated in a fully balanced audio design and deliver the proven Shanling sound. With 32-bit/384 kHz resolution, native DSD256 support and even MQA CD support, the EC Mini offers impressive Hi-Res audio playback. The EC Mini is easy to operate using the hardware buttons or the small 2.33-inch touchscreen, which gives the device additional functionality. If you want to use your smartphone as a remote control, the Eddict Player app for Android and iOS is available for download. The sleek and compact design of the EC Mini allows for easy integration into various listening scenarios, while the rounded edges of the metal housing make it easy to transport. The two built-in 18650 rechargeable batteries provide an independent power supply. These USB rechargeable batteries offer impressive performance and make the EC Mini completely independent of power sockets.
