Product Description
A tiny digital audio player that’s getting a lot of attention on Head-Fi, the Shanling M1 offers commuter-friendly portability without sacrificing sound quality. It can play 192kHz/32-bit audio, supports DSD64 and DSD128 decoding, and comes equipped with Bluetooth 4.0 and aptX protocol Read More
i use it as transport with CEntrance DACportable and it is amazing pair. By itself M1 sound is very average. If someone wants both worlds get M0, it works as transport and sounds just great! May be too small for large hands.
The M0 makes the M1 obsolete tbh. The M0 has the same features, is half the size, uses a touch screen instead of the little buttons and unclear interface of the M1 and has a metal shell vs. the really weak, brittle, thin plastic shell of the M1. Just from carrying in a bag my M1's shell is cracked and broken, and I have pieces of business cards taped over the cracks and holes. Just updated the M0 to 2.1 firmware and works fine, paired with my computer to use as a bluetooth receiver, etc.
Bought one last drop. Plugged directly, the sound quality is decent, around high-end smartphone territory.
I liked the bluetooth capabilities, too, but the main use was supposed to be as transport, and it failed at it miserably with both bad sound quality and skips on some tracks.
I'd get if you need something really portable and for casual listening or playback.
Hey i have a problem with my m1. I use it with AUX in my car, it works perfectly if it comes for audio and stuff, but the device sometimes doesnt recognize the files with a "files not found" message. Cant find solution, shannling won't answer me. What do?
JackyoI have a Hiby R3. I see this when there's an M3U playlist with the wrong path. The song is listed, but it can't route to the file.
The Hiby OS can only use M3Us with relative pathing.
It's a tiny device that's likely to be used for portability. Not everyone wants to pull the DAP out of their pocket to navigate to change the playlist / song. The M1 uses buttons and it's extremely easy to change songs and never remove the device from your pocket. Regarding the QC: some people (albeit, very few) have had issues with the wheel. There are plenty of issues that need to be ironed out with the M0's touchscreen.
The M0 is roughly half the footprint of the M1; you're pitching this as an objective pro. There's absolutely nothing objective about it. Between the two, I vehemently prefer the M1's size. I own them both and I'm not alone in this opinion (between the M0 and M1s 500+ pages of posts at headfi, you'll find hundreds of people who share this opinion)
There are, literally, several reasons to purchase the M1 over the M0.
Pretty low to try and clean stocks on these on MD at this ridiculous price. There's literally no reason to buy this over the newer M0 which is $109 from Aliexpress.
