Introducing Shanling EM5 & EA5 Streamers
Shanling started as a traditional Hi-Fi company, designing and manufacturing machines for home hi-fi and stereo speakers. But in last few years, we focused more on the portable market, with our players, earphones and Bluetooth products. But this is changing in 2021 and we are going back to our roots of home audio.
Following our unique M30 modular desktop system, we are going to release two more products for desktop and stereo speaker systems. Let us introduce our new EM5 and EA5 streamers.
Availability: Summer 2021
Price: Under 1 000 USD
Both of these devices are built around the same digital player system, offering access to main streaming services, DLNA, Airplay, Bluetooth and local playback. All controlled through the touch screen on top of the device or via app on your phone or tablet.
EM5 is designed as a DAC/AMP for high-end headphones, with a range of different connectors, including balanced XLR and 4.4mm. It can also be used as a DAC and pre-amplifier when combined with a separate power amplifier or active speakers.
On the other hand, EA5 is working as an all-in-one streamer. While it lacks the balanced outputs and offers just a single ended headphone output, it adds in a full integrated amplifier, so it can be used directly to power your speaker system.
We will release more details and full specifications at later date.
