SHANLING M30 PRO
Desktop modular High-End DAC with headphone amplifier and streamer
The Shanling M30 Pro is the world’s first modular DAC, headphone amplifier, digital streamer and player with a fully modular design. This innovative high-end player from Shanling is built from multiple interchangeable elements, each equipped with High-End components to support high-quality music listening.
The dual Asahi Kasei AK4497EQ DAC (digital-to-analog converter) chips and dual Texas Instruments OPA2211 operational amplifiers ensure outstanding performance. In addition to the discrete architecture, two Korg 6P1 tube amplifier modules deliver an output power of 3800mW @ 32Ohm. Sanyo capacitors and monocrystalline copper internal wiring provide seamless signal transmission. It runs on a custom, closed Android 10 operating system, with an 8-core Snapdragon 665 processor, 6GB RAM and 128GB ROM, the latter expandable up to 2TB via the Micro SD card reader located under the display. Thanks to the 5" 2160x1060p tilting Sharp display, navigation is simple and intuitive. The M30 Pro uses 5 high-performance Panasonic 18650 batteries, with a total capacity of 16500mAh for noise-free and long-lasting operation.
Full earphone and headphone output support with single-ended 3.5mm and 6.35mm, as well as balanced 2.5mm, 3.5mm PRO, 4.4 and 4-Pin XLR analog outputs, plus RCA and XLR outputs. For inputs, you can use USB-C (data connection), USB-A (for external drives), USB-B (for DACs), Optical, Coax and Ethernet. For network playback it is compatible with Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz, Deezer, Apple Music and Amazon Music streaming services, and can also be controlled via Shanling’s free Eddict app. Playback over Bluetooth 5.0 is also available, supporting LDAC resolution for both sending and receiving signals.
The versatile and modern M30 Pro can be seen as the evolution of music listening, created to satisfy the highest demands and to play a key role in any home audio system.
The M30 Pro features a modular design, meaning that the aluminum chassis can accommodate six interchangeable units. The current "Pro" configuration includes the following elements: digital player control unit (Android system module), DAC module, discrete amplifier module, tube amplifier module and battery module. The package also includes a carrying case, screwdriver, module removal tool, suction cup, gloves, USB-A to USB-C cable, cleaning cloth, DC power adapter and a tilting stand.
