EC Zero T represents a culmination of the latest trends in the portable Hi-Fi market, combining some of Shanling’s highlight features from the past two years.

In 2023 we released EC Mini, a battery-powered transportable CD player that started a resurgence of the whole category. EC Zero T follows in its steps, but fits the battery-powered CD player into a smaller and lighter body, with more advanced anti-shake and anti-skip systems, for true portable use in all conditions and movements.

Last year saw the first release of our first R2R DAC in almost two decades, with the EH2 Desktop DAC. This less common approach to DAC architecture keeps earning many sympathies among the modern hi-fi crowd and it has been fully established as a strong alternative to the classic Delta-Sigma chipsets. And it was a clear choice for the EC Zero T, managing to perfectly combine the natural-sounding R2R DAC with the pure CD playback.

And at the end of 2024 we released M8T, our flagship Android player and our first portable device with tube output. It quickly became known for its high-end sound quality and was especially praised for its distinctive sound changes between tube and transistor output. Now we are bringing the same JAN6418 tubes and output switching to the EC Zero T.
