Shanling SCD1.3 SACD Player
Shanling SCD1.3 shines as a High-End DAC playing SACDs, but it was designed as a multifunctional source component for a wide range of Hi-Fi setups. Apart from SACDs, you can enjoy playback from local USB drives, convenient Bluetooth streaming or even DLNA, Airplay and NAS support. And while its single-ended and balanced outputs will be matching partners for many audiophile amplifiers or active speakers, the included digital inputs can feed even better DACs, taking advantage of the new advanced I2S support.
Sound tuning of the SCD1.3 was based on the Shanling M9 Plus, with the flagship AKM AK4499EX + AK4191 DAC system at its center. Highly detailed, with a vast and precise soundstage, yet adding a bit of warmth and smoothness, for the classic Shanling sound. With highly precise volume control and MUSES8920 acting as the pre-amplifier, SCD1.3 can be paired directly with power amplifiers or active speakers, for a simple and high-quality 2-channel speaker setup.
And for situations when the resolution of SACD is still not enough, the Hi-Res capabilities of SCD1.3 go all the way up to 32-bit / 768 kHz and DSD512. Either connect SCD1.3 to a computer, utilizing its high-performance XMOS XU316 USB input, or just plug a USB drive directly into the USB port on the front panel, for pure lossless local playback directly on the SCD1.3.
