Established in 1988, Shanling has been a pioneer in audio product development, launching their first Hi-Fi stereo amplifier that same year. With a relentless commitment to innovation, Shanling has acquired numerous patented technologies and qualifications, including SONY LDAC, Bluetooth BQB, and Hi-Res certification from the Japanese Audio Association, among others.
With over 30 years of experience, Shanling values integrity, teamwork, and dedication. Our employees are the cornerstone of our success, and we prioritize customer satisfaction and product quality above all else. Our headquarters in Shenzhen and factory in Dongguang enable us to seamlessly integrate research and development, production, and sales of a wide range of high-quality products, including Hi-Res portable music players, amplifiers, headphones, SACD/CD players, and power conditioners. We are proud of our strong partnerships with renowned international hi-end manufacturers and our stellar reputation in the industry.
First of all, thanks for the quick delivery. This tiny DAP is easy to use. The playback is good, the sound clear and well resolving. With the special Shanling adaptor you get full value as the music sounds loud and very clear. However I do need to recharge the battery after 3 to 4 hours listening. That is the only downside
I bought the red colour Shanling M0 Pro, it is a great sounding device. Holds good amount of music in high res quality, initially had issues playing a few FLAC files which were resolved after firmware upgrade. The latest version is 1.6 so I recommend you update your device to the latest. UI is simple but would have loved some thumbnail views to select albums instead of all text view.
Overall great sound and supports all the latest features of a dedicated Music player. Physical buttons to change track would have been better than one button to power on off and setting actions.
Battery life could have been better if it had been more than 24 hours. Currently lasts about 1.5 days if you are a frequent listener.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for the Shanling M0 Pro Hi-Res Digital Audio Player. We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the device and its great sound quality. We apologize for any initial issues you may have had with playing FLAC files, but we are happy to know that they were resolved after a firmware upgrade. We also appreciate your feedback on the UI and will take it into consideration for future improvements. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy your Shanling M0 Pro.
It was decent build as expected like previous MO.,bit stylish for the age.Single dial system ,minimalistic is functional and ergonomic.Clicks switches song gud.Unlock requires a swipe.Dial is gud.Sound signature pretty decent for iem and may work for less power required Headphones too.Cleaner signature and may require you to dial up more than 50% for decent volume.Charge looks like around 6-7 hours decent.Screen bit small but over time we will get used to and works great.Portablity is the usp of this DAP for travel or bedside listen.May be a Spotify or Apple lossless in future will be great add on.Otherwise Gud DAP for iems and a portable DAC too for compact carrying people.Case is decent too from.Shanling.Satisfied overall.but dont think its very powerful though.
Thanks for your review of the Shanling M0 Pro Hi-Res Digital Audio Player! We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear you find it functional and ergonomic with a decent sound signature.
I recently made a purchase of this product slightly over a week ago from the audio store, and I am pleased to express my satisfaction with the package and delivery, which were executed in a neat and expedited manner. My primary intent for acquiring this item was to cater to my portable audio requirements during various activities such as walking, driving, and commuting.
Upon testing, I found the sound stage to be suitably expansive, allowing for a satisfying auditory experience. Furthermore, the device exhibited the capability to power my in-ear monitors (IEMs) effectively. The audio quality itself can be described as neutral with a subtle warmth, which enhances the overall listening experience.
Transferring my music collection was a seamless process, as the user interface proved to be both smooth and devoid of any apparent glitches or inconveniences. In terms of battery performance, the device showcased commendable backup capabilities, ensuring a prolonged and uninterrupted usage.
Taking into account its features and performance, I am inclined to recommend this compact yet powerful audio device, as it offers excellent value within its price range. However, it is worth noting that the absence of a balanced adapter is the only drawback I encountered during my experience with the product.
Thank you for your review of the Shanling M0 Pro Hi-Res Digital Audio Player. We're glad to hear that you're pleased with your purchase and the performance of the device. We recommend that you invest in a quality balanced adapter to take full advantage of the device's excellent audio quality.
Seriously you have to consider this player for your offline music. The best tiny player with a dual chipset has a lot of power to deliver any IEM. My self using IE 900 & IE 200 along with 64 Audio Fourte. All my IEMS are very well sounding with M0 Pro.
At this price point, dint expects this player sounds that great and even powerful but really thrilled once plugged in. I won't listen with a 3.5 jack plug. Personally purchased a 3.5 to 4.4 mm Balanced adapter which is from Shanling and recommended for M0 Pro.
Let your offline tracks be of any quality the M0 will make them sound the best. I had my offline tracks for many years now. Some of the tracks are downloaded from various sites not been much quality but this player sounds the best. As per my observation, this player delivers a great listing experience with decent separation, mids, and lows. At the price point, it's a wonderful gem in a 15k Segment player.
Pros:
1. 100% Best DAP at this price point
2. Lots of power and musicality.
3. with a 4.4 mm balanced adaptor you will see the real side of M0 Pro.
4. Decent power battery
5. The quality of the player looks very good (won't look cheap )
6. The software also won't have much lag. ( Fine to operate )
Cons:
1. Not included the 4.4 Balanced adaptor
2. Separate purchase of a case
Final Words: Recommend to everyone, If you are new to the audiophile journey and need some DAP for your offline tracks then this is the best to choose without any question. If you already have some flagship DAP and want to have something for traveling and when you move to some un-network areas where you felt like listing your favorite tracks then this should be in your pocket.
Thanks for the Pritam always stands for best recommendations and suggestions for audiophiles. Love you all time. Thanks again:)
Thank you for your detailed review.

Marrying vintage aesthetics with cutting-edge technology, these headphones offer a sublime auditory experience that caters to the most discerning of listeners.
Design and Build Quality
The Distant Mountain captivates with its retro-inspired design, reminiscent of the golden age of personal audio. The headband, crafted from solid stainless steel and adorned with genuine lambskin, ensures both durability and unparalleled comfort. The coaxial CNC-machined body exudes a high-gloss finish, presenting an extraordinary high-end texture that is both versatile and fashionable. 
Sound Performance
At the heart of the Distant Mountain lies an innovative 40mm composite topological diaphragm. This redesigned dome and corrugated ring deliver crisp, transparent treble and profound, surging bass. Enhanced by neodymium super magnets and an acoustic structure dedicated to small-sized headsets, the Distant Mountain presents richer sound details and a more natural treble extension, immersing the listener in melodious music. 
Comfort and Usability
The sponge ear pads are designed with both softness and breathability in mind, ensuring prolonged listening sessions remain comfortable. The headband supports fine length adjustments, with clearly visible scales to alleviate any concerns about symmetry. The inclusion of a stranded-free 5N single crystal copper IEM cable, coupled with a detachable MMCX design, offers high playability and customization for the user. 
Conclusion
The Roseselsa Distant Mountain is a testament to superb build quality and exceptional sound performance. Its unique tuning direction, reminiscent of high-fidelity in-ear monitors, combined with its luxurious design, makes it a standout choice for audiophiles seeking both style and substance. While it may require amplification to truly shine and could benefit from thicker earpads for optimal comfort, its value proposition remains compelling. For those who appreciate a blend of retro aesthetics and modern audio excellence, the Distant Mountain is an unrivaled choice. 
In the grand symphony of high-fidelity audio equipment, the Roseselsa Distant Mountain plays its notes , offering a professional and luxurious listening experience that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking.
I love the compatibility and the bill quality of the AUDIOCULAR d07, it works well with my samsung m53, . I also liked that u provide a case along with it , 😉
Good Sound Quality. Bass Treble Mid Too God Under 2k Price, Lookwise Good & Ear Fit & Gaming Experience To Good. & clear Sound Sense.
Earphone Case Too Good 👍 I like it.
Fast Delivery in 2 day delivery In My Address.
This is a solid technical iem with a very neutral tuning. Its a keeper iem for those who already have a collection of somewhat coluored or tasteful sounding iems under 10k .
Increased the volume as well as clarity of audio.
Thanks to the audio store for a quick delivery
This was my first experience with The Audiostore and it was welcoming. Happy with the service provided and customised suggestions as per need. Looking forward to buy next one. Thanks.
Awesome work
Fantastic easy to use dongel dac by Shanling. Build quality is also 👌. For a budget music lover this is a value for money. TAS keep providing such affordable quality product to us always...👍
Sparkling music, enhance volume and gives extra wide sound instrument but some time later connection gone if audio is not play
The CD player works as advertised. The single ended headphone jack has decent output, able to drive IEMs at a loud volume level. The coaxial output also works with a 3.5mm male to coaxial cable hooked to a pre-amp. Sound signature is unolocured in the territory of neutral to slightly bright neutral and corresponds well with recording and mastering of records. Worth the money imo.
If my current HiBy R6 III (Gen 3, ESS) is compared to driving a BMW, the R6Pro MAX is a Rolls Royce.
It is easy, smooth, and suave. It doesn’t make a big deal of representing a soundstage that’s exactly studio-like. Natural, not heavy on any particular frequency (do not expect heart thumping bass) and extremely coherent. It’s like you’re sitting in front of the artists themselves, in a studio, with a performance made just for you alone. Each frequency - the lows, mids, highs and everything else in between - are effortlessly detailed and precise.
All IEMs I have tried with it, i.e. the 64 Audio Volür, Symphonium Meteor, Penon Quattro and Kiwi Ears Quintet are driven best at Low or Middle Gain, with me personally finding that High Gain makes it all muddy. I am yet to try it with my HiFiMan Ananda Planar headphones, and will update this review as the journey with this masterpiece of a device continues. Rarely do I find myself being fondly attached to any device so quickly. It may be safe to say the R6Pro MAX does have something special. Only time will tell.
Lastly, the design is phenomenal and classy. The weight of the unit is evenly balanced and not top-heavy, making it very easy to handle in spite of its 500 gramme weight.
My only gripe, because I just HAVE to find one is that the case provided is quite impractical as the device tends to slide out from the top opening, and it interferes with the UI gestures. On the flip side, the quality of the case is top-notch making the device feel extremely premium with its carbon fiber-like finish.
Kudos to HiBy. Clearly a lot of effort and thought has been put into introducing something like this. We may be looking at a potential market game-changer.
(All IEMs have been tested with the OE 2DualCPS Silver Upgrade Cable)
Superb Audio quality, Enhance the sound separation for my moondrop chu 2. i enjoyed a lot. Built quality also so good. Best Budget DAC recommended.
Bought the KZ Castor Pro from Audiostore, and I must say, I am extremely happy with my purchase. At first, I was a bit hesitant to order from them, but they completely surprised me with their service.
The delivery was super fast—much quicker than I expected! I couldn't believe how quickly the IEMs reached me, which made the entire shopping experience even more satisfying.
The product AUDIOCULAR D07 is a phenomenal DAC & Amp. It is suitable for all kinds of wired earphones. The output impedance of this DAC is sufficient for inexpensive as well as Expensive earphones. Overall I satisfied very much with this product. Thank you.
I really liked Moondrop Chu II DSP, which was my first IEM. I felt like I needed some more bass. This is perfect. Sounds exactly same as Chu II and with more bass. Shipping and delivery was also very fast. Got it delivered in 3 days. Good delivery and good product.
