Product Overview & Specifications
The Eversolo Play CD Edition is an all-in-one streaming integrated amplifier that combines network audio, disc playback, and speaker amplification within a CNC-machined aluminium chassis. Built around a multi-core ARM streaming engine running Eversolo's EOS (EverSolo Original Sampling-rate) technology, the Play CD Edition bypasses Android sample-rate conversion to ensure bit-perfect signal processing up to PCM 768kHz/32-bit and native DSD512. Digital decoding is handled by AKM's VELVET SOUND AK4493SEQ 32-bit DAC, whilst the power section utilises PurePath Ultra HD Class D technology backed by a low-noise PFC + LLC power supply to deliver 60W per channel into 8 Ohms (110W into 4 Ohms).
Equipped with an integrated Hitachi-LG optical CD drive housed in a vibration-dampened chassis, the CD Edition provides stable disc playback with custom error correction and built-in CD ripping functionality. Operating via a 5.5-inch HD colour touchscreen featuring retro VU meters and a customizable RGB volume ring, the system includes room acoustic calibration, a 15-band graphic / 10-band parametric EQ, and smart bass management. Inputs and outputs encompass HDMI ARC, Optical, Coaxial, USB 3.0 OTG, MM/MC Phono, an active Subwoofer output, and direct binding posts for stereo speakers.
