Product description
The Eversolo Play series is aimed squarely at anyone who wants a minimal, high-performing "all-in-one" hub. If you don't own physical media, the base Play saves money and footprint. If you have a legacy CD collection or want an effortless way to digitize discs, the Play CD offers tremendous value for the small price jump.
Key Technical Specifications & Features
-
Built-in Power Amp: Features a Class D amplifier delivering 60W per channel at 8Ω (or 110W at 4Ω) using PurePath Ultra HD technology. This easily drives bookshelf speakers and efficient tower speakers.

- Interface & Display: Front-panel 5.5-inch color LCD touchscreen paired with an oversized volume knob surrounded by a customizable RGB light ring. Features dynamic vintage VU meter displays.
- Software Platform: Powered by Eversolo’s customized EOS (Eversolo Original Audio Engine) built on Android, bypassing system SRC (sample-rate conversion) for bit-perfect output across all apps.
- Streaming Ecosystem: Native app integration for Tidal, Qobuz, Amazon Music, and Apple Music. Supports Roon Ready, Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect, AirPlay, and UPnP/DLNA.
- DSP & Tuning: Includes automatic room correction (using your phone's microphone), a 10-band Parametric EQ, a 15-band Graphic EQ, and advanced smart bass management for subwoofers.
The CD Functionality (Play CD Exclusive)
The Play CD Edition integrates a Hitachi-LG optical drive inside a vibration-dampened chassis. Beyond real-time audio playback, it acts as a CD Ripper. When you insert a CD, it fetches metadata automatically and allows you to rip tracks in bit-perfect FLAC or WAV formats directly to the internal 32GB memory, an attached USB drive, or a network NAS drive.
