Inside the OS are many convenience features, such as in vehicle mode, which turns the unit on and off only when connected to a charger, a sleep timer, a button lock, gain control, EQ, max volume control, and a lot more.
The M1S runs on an upgraded Ingenic X2000 Three-Core processor with upgraded MTouch 2.0 OS, providing a smooth UI and advanced functions such as WiFi connectivity which supports streaming via Apple Airplay and DLNA. You can also use the M1S as a USB DAC along with a smartphone or laptop, but it only supports PCM up to 32/384, and DSD up to DSD256 in this mode, which isn’t bad at all. Many audiophiles are fans of these chips, and that’s for a good reason I’ve yet to hear of a terrible-sounding device that uses them. To enhance the audio experience further, the M1S has dual independent RT6863 amp chips that produce up to 245 W of clean power via the balanced output port. Additionally, the 3.5mm jack doubles as a coax digital output. The M1S also has two headphone output ports, 3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced, allowing users to use the headphones of their choice. The M1S also has an in-house developed FPGA architecture that allows support of high-res 32bit/768kHz PCM, native DSD512, and MQA audio signals (full decoding means you can play MQA Studio files at the highest quality). It’s a chip known to provide ultra-low distortion and high SNR values.Įven from a quick listen, I can say that the resulting output has a rich tone and a clean, noise-free background. First, it features an ES9038Q2M Premium 32-Bit high-performance DAC chipset from ESS Sabre Technologies, enabling crisp, high-resolution audio decoding. The Shanling M1S is a compact digital audio player that supplies many features audiophiles will love. RELATED: Best Audiophile Music Streamers Under $1000! (2023)
