Best DAC in this price and Value for money

Review: Solid build quality. Almost all the tunings can be done through physical buttons on the DAC. Using Eddict player app. Coming to music.. Sounds great, bit warm. Just started exploring the DAC with different music genres. Trying with different IEMs, gog to know that good IEMs also plays role to better output. Just within in 24 hrs, received the DAC. Fabulous service by HPZ and courier partners. Thank you HPZ.

Shanling UA4

Shanling over the years has built up a reputation and track record which is enviable. I can vouchsafe on this based on the audio gadgets which I have. This one UA4 just does not do justice in maintaining the image built up. Audio quality , contrary to the net reviews does not live up to the standards . Built quality appears to be very cheap and flimsy . But of course the company has managed to keep the price down . Anyway , a better deal was expected from Shanling.

Thank you for your honest review of the Shanling UA4. We apologize that the audio quality and build did not meet your expectations.

Superb

Clean, clear sound with very good refinement and control in the treble region unlike few other ESS Dacs in the past. Bass also has good texture to it. Play/pause, next track, previous track buttons also work on online platforms like Amazon Music. Slightly Vocal forward, mid forward IEMs/headphones work very well with this dongle but others work fine too. I am using it with stock firmware and did not upgrade firmware as I have not faced any issues with it till now.

Very good device and good value for money compared to few other dongles that don't have the features this has and they cost more

Hey there, thank you for the great review and ratings! So delighted that you are loving your purchase. Hope you had a comfortable shopping experience. Cheers!
