An equilibrium price is one at which the quantity supplied and the quantity demanded are equal. The typical way to represent this is as the point where the supply and demand curves intersect.

Eq price is where the market is cleared. Where all sellers willing to sell at certain scales of money and goods find buyers with inverse scales who are willing to buy at voluntary prices. However, this is only a speciifc set of relationships at a particular point in time. This is not the same as classical economists of a market price with total supply and toatl demand coming to an equilibrium, merely a state of rest until the next transaction.
