FPGA Enhanced 12S Output
SCD1.3 utilizes the MediaTek ME1389EE system Featuring a dedicated FPGA circuit for further adjustability of 12S output. Such special feature offers significantly improved compatibility with DACs across the market, including 10 of the most common 12S HDMI standards.
Full support of SACD and CD Playback
- Hi-Fi Grade Disc Mechanism – SCD1.3 utilizes the MediaTek ME1389EE system alongside the Sanyo HD870 laser in a tray-style drive, fully unlocking the capabilities of the High-Resolution SACD discs with stable and error-free reading.
- Proper SACD & CD Support – Supporting standard CDs, SACD and hybrid SACDs, with limited functionality even for multichannel SACDs. Adding a dedicated button for a quick switch between SACD and CD layers of hybrid SACD discs.
Wireless Playback – Bluetooth & Wi-Fi Support
Enjoy the conveniences of modern wireless playback on the SCD1.3, utilizing either simple Bluetooth streaming or more advanced Wi-Fi based systems.
- Bluetooth 5.0 Supporting LDAC, aptX HD & AAC Easy Connection for Smartphones and Tablets
- Wi-Fi with DLNA, Airplay and NAS
Optimized for CD Player
For its multifunctional roles, SCD1.3 runs the latest generation of Shanling’ sMTouch system, powered by the Ingenic X2000 platform and controlled through a 5-inch touch screen. The new generation of MTouch offers
improved speed, more accurate response to touch controls and simplified Ul, further adjusted for the role of the CD player.
Sound Tuning
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, the classic Shanling sound.
It has a highly precise volume control and with the MUSES8920 acting as the pre-amplifier, SCD1.3 can be paired directly with power amplifiers or active speakers. Thus a simple and high-quality 2-channel speaker setup.
Digital Inputs
When it comes to digital outputs, SCD1.3 is the first Shanling model to adapt a new advanced I2S system. It features a dedicated FPGA circuit for further adjustability of I2S output. This special feature offers significantly improved compatibility with DACs across the market, at the launch already including 10 of the most common I2s HDMI pinouts.
And for simpler DACs, there is the classic combination of coaxial and optical SPDIF. Note: SACD disc playback will be converted to PCM 88.2 kHZ for digital outputs.
For its multifunctional roles, SCD1.3 runs the latest generation of Shanling’s MTouch system, powered by the Ingenic X2000 platform and controlled through a 5-inch touch screen. The new generation of MTouch offers improved speed, more accurate response to touch controls and simplified UI, further adjusted for the role of the CD player.
MTouch also unlocks the wireless capabilities of SCD1.3, a Bluetooth 5.0 receiver function with the support of LDAC, aptX HD and AAC, alongside Wi-Fi connectivity, bringing in DLNA, Airplay and NAS functions.
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.
