SHANLING UA7
Portable DAC and Tube Headphone Amplifier
The Shanling UA7 is a high-performance portable DAC/AMP that combines cutting-edge digital audio fidelity with the warmth of analog sound. At its core is the ESS ES9069 DAC, capable of decoding 768 kHz/32-bit PCM and native DSD512, ensuring crystal-clear audio resolution. What makes the UA7 special are the two clearly visible JAN6418 vacuum tubes, providing rich, tube-quality sound and the option to switch to a solid-state output for a cleaner, more neutral profile. Combined with the OP+BUF amplifier architecture, the UA7 delivers up to 577 mW of output power at 32 Ω, enough to confidently drive high-impedance or power-demanding headphones.
The UA7, housed in a compact aluminum case, is sleek and robust, weighing just 48.5 g. The 0.87-inch OLED screen provides real-time playback information, while the multifunction wheel offers intuitive control. It features 3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced outputs, making it compatible with a wide range of devices. The USB-C connection provides plug-and-play use with Android, Windows, and macOS devices, and the Shanling Eddict Player app allows for deeper customization (only on Android/Windows devices).
The UA7 is designed for audiophiles, musicians, and discerning music listeners looking for a portable, high-fidelity device. It is a compact and truly versatile device that offers an immersive listening experience. The box includes a USB-C to USB-C cable and a USB-C to USB-A adapter.
