An echo canceller for cancelling a variable-phase echo signal is connected between two one-way send and receive paths coupled by means of a coupling circuit (6) to a two-way path. This echo canceller comprises an adaptive filter (92) cooperating with a phase shifter (95) for forming a replica of the echo signal, and a subtractor (72) inserted in the receive path for producing a difference signal between the echo signal and its replica. This canceller further comprises a suppressing circuit for suppressing a d.c. component (300) of the difference signal, which circuit is designed for supplying an adjusting quantity in the direction of the adaptive filter and the phase sifter.
