Shanling CD Player - Looks aren’t everything
Added 2025-07-17 14:30:54 +0000 UTCNow that new CD Players only sell to a niche audience, companies are trying to grab a slice of that niche with unusual player designs. The Shanling EC Smart is supposed to be a step-up from the countless no-name Ali Express novelty CD players, while still benefitting from an eye catching appearance.
Here’s my review:

I’ve managed to get this video completed (I hope) just in time for it to jump the queue in front of the increasingly unpopular projector themed nonsense. I'll release this video on Youtube on Saturday but as I might be away from a computer at 10AM Saturday, I’ve uploaded it twice. One without the adverts just for Patrons and the other one scheduled for public auto-release.
I’m feeling a bit tired out, so I’ll take a few days break from recording/editing. As a result there will be a bit of a gap before anything new appears here. In the meantime have a good one and look after yourself.

That was a good review of a classic Techmoan item. Interesting but flawed. Nicely done.

2025-07-22 06:50:51 +0000 UTCI have a question, is this CD player gapless or does it add a gap between each track. The most recent player I bought isn't gapless, and when you try and listen to a concept album or live album it gets rather distracting. Thanks and keep up the great videos!
