M6 Ultra is first Shanling portable player adapting the newest generation of AKM DACs, utilizing four pieces of AK4493SEQ for a unique Quad-DACs design. This multi-DACs concept was inspired by a few old-school Shanling CD players, with an aim to maximise the potential of DACs for a balanced circuit. Now with four DACs, they are able to divide the signal four ways between each of them, achieving a completely independent fully balanced output.
Amplifier design was further adjusted for this Quad-DACs array, allowing for a higher power output than was possible on Shanling previous AKM based M6 models. Offering up to 720 mW @ 32 Ohm output.
Rest of the M6 Ultra follows the high standard set by Shaling latest Android players. Running on a much faster Snapdragon 665 CPU, with an open Android 10 system and an in-house developed Android Global Lossless Output (AGLO) system for an ideal sound performance. Operated through a nicely bright 5-inch 1080p touch screen and all packed into Shanling’s classic aluminium & glass build, this time inspired by the curves of M3X and M8.
