Storage
Storage is important. Even in this era of streaming music, you’d want to make sure you have enough space to store your amazing collection of music on your player. Imagine a long flight, it’s your offline files you’re going to be listening to.
Keeping your entire collection of Hi-Resolution music in one place is the most convenient way of carrying your music library. However, Hi-Resolution files are heavy. Most songs in a FLAC format can be about 100mb per track. So more space is always better.
Most players support both internal storage and expandable storage via an external memory card. Make sure you check both - the internal memory on players, and consider the maximum supported size of the expandable storage. It’s best to keep your library of offline files in expandable storage and use the internal storage for saving files from streaming apps.
At the time of writing this article, MicroSD cards for 256 GB were easily available and affordable for less than Rs. 2000. Higher capacity cards are also available, but that seems to be the sweet spot.

SHANLING M6 ULTRA IS HI-RES CERTIFIED, FEATURES QUAD AKM DAC CHIPS WITH 16X MQA SUPPORT FOR EXCEPTIONAL SONIC PERFORMANCE
Shanling M6 Ultra is a Hi-Res certified by the Japanese Audio Society. It is Hi-Res Audio, Hi-Res Wireless Audio certified. The M6 Ultra is the first portable player from Shanling, adapting the newest generation AKM DACs, utilising quad AK4493SEQ for a unique Quad-DACs design. The DAC chips that DAP houses are its most crucial component.

FEATURES BRAND-NEW HIGH-VOLTAGE LINEARIN OPAMPS AND IMPROVED OP+BUF ARCHITECTURE FUSED WITH TI-OPA1612 THAT Provide DISTORTION-FREE LINEAR POWER OUTPUT
An audio amplifier maintains the detail of the smaller signal while boosting the loudness to a practical level known as linearity. The output signal is a more accurate reflection of the input signal the higher the linearity of the amplifier. Taking this design aspect into consideration a team of engineers at Shanling developed the M6 Ultra to accommodate Quad OPA1612 and Dual OPA2211 in its circuitry. The DAC section of M6 Ultra was designed with four TI-OPA1612, splitting the balanced audio signal between all four DACs achieving a completely independent balanced output. Two TI-OPA2211 are incorporated in its circuitry for low noise and high bandwidth performance. The circuitry is surrounded by top-quality Panasonic tantalum-polymer capacitors, two for each of the four DACs. The M6 Ultra adapts a brand-new high-voltage Linearin LTA8092 opamps, partnered with a well-proven BUF634A, combined with the AKM DACs for a slightly warmer and relaxed sound following in tracks of the M8 and the original lineup of AKM-based M6 & M6 Pro. TI-BUF634A High-Speed Buffer Positioned at the driver stage provides proper current output creating the warmer and thicker sound of the M6 Ultra. Two Japanese KDS active crystal oscillators, 3rd Generation FPGA, and improved Shanling's algorithm provide better accuracy, reduced jitter and enhanced performance of the digital signal transmission. High-quality 100 F WE capacitors are used for refined sound and precise soundstage. The M6 Ultra hosts a balanced amplification circuitry, capable of continuous high power output, with plentiful energy reserves for all music genres. The tone is clean and precise for the most dynamic compositions on the M6 Ultra. A newly designed amplifier allows M6 Ultra to reach higher power outputs than older AKM-based M6 models. The M6 Ultra offers better performance with demanding full-size headphones. It provides an output power of 240mW@32 Ohms Single-Ended 3.5mm and 720mW @32 Ohms Balanced 4.4mm.
QUALCOMM CHIPSETS FUSED WITH AGLO OUTPUT TECHNOLOGY, TWO-WAY BLUETOOTH 5.0 RENDERING, AND WIFI SUPPORT PRESENT OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE WIRELESSLY
Shanling M6 Ultra with Qualcomm chipsets under its belly has immaculate and precise processing power. With the introduction of wireless technology, the world has gone surreal for streaming music without having to deal with the annoyance of wires. The engineers at Shanling created the M6 Ultra with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capabilities so that you can stream music wirelessly. With Bluetooth 5.0 support, M6 Ultra is a simple Bluetooth-enabled DAP. You can now stream music directly from M6 Ultra. The M6 Ultra is compatible with Bluetooth speakers and headphones, thanks to the two-way Bluetooth configuration. It supports Bluetooth codecs like LDAC, aptX HD, aptX, and SBC for transmission and LDAC & SBC for Bluetooth reception. In addition, a Qualcomm WCN3980 processor is housed in the Shanling M6 Ultra's seamless wireless module.

DELIVERING 13.5 HOURS OF PLAYTIME WITH FAST CHARGING CAPABILITIES AND EMBEDDED WITH A 5" TOUCH SCREEN LCD DISPLAY
The most important aspect of portable digital audio players is the way they sound, but you also need enough battery power for an uninterrupted listening experience. This design concept is what the engineers at Shanling paid attention to in engineering M6 Ultra to accommodate a 5650mAh battery yielding over 13.5 hours of playtime (single-ended) and 9 hours (balanced). The M6 Ultra delivers a whopping 58.5 hours of playtime when operated in Bluetooth transmitter mode. However, the play time varies with different resolutions, volumes and headphone/IEM loads. The M6 Ultra supports Qualcomm QC3.0 18W quick charge protocol which charges the device rapidly when the player is low on juice.

FEATURES BRAND-NEW HIGH-VOLTAGE LINEARIN OPAMPS AND IMPROVED OP+BUF ARCHITECTURE FUSED WITH TI-OPA1612 THAT Provide DISTORTION-FREE LINEAR POWER OUTPUT
An audio amplifier maintains the detail of the smaller signal while boosting the loudness to a practical level known as linearity. The output signal is a more accurate reflection of the input signal the higher the linearity of the amplifier. Taking this design aspect into consideration a team of engineers at Shanling developed the M6 Ultra to accommodate Quad OPA1612 and Dual OPA2211 in its circuitry. The DAC section of M6 Ultra was designed with four TI-OPA1612, splitting the balanced audio signal between all four DACs achieving a completely independent balanced output. Two TI-OPA2211 are incorporated in its circuitry for low noise and high bandwidth performance. The circuitry is surrounded by top-quality Panasonic tantalum-polymer capacitors, two for each of the four DACs. The M6 Ultra adapts a brand-new high-voltage Linearin LTA8092 opamps, partnered with a well-proven BUF634A, combined with the AKM DACs for a slightly warmer and relaxed sound following in tracks of the M8 and the original lineup of AKM-based M6 & M6 Pro. TI-BUF634A High-Speed Buffer Positioned at the driver stage provides proper current output creating the warmer and thicker sound of the M6 Ultra. Two Japanese KDS active crystal oscillators, 3rd Generation FPGA, and improved Shanling's algorithm provide better accuracy, reduced jitter and enhanced performance of the digital signal transmission. High-quality 100 F WE capacitors are used for refined sound and precise soundstage. The M6 Ultra hosts a balanced amplification circuitry, capable of continuous high power output, with plentiful energy reserves for all music genres. The tone is clean and precise for the most dynamic compositions on the M6 Ultra. A newly designed amplifier allows M6 Ultra to reach higher power outputs than older AKM-based M6 models. The M6 Ultra offers better performance with demanding full-size headphones. It provides an output power of 240mW@32 Ohms Single-Ended 3.5mm and 720mW @32 Ohms Balanced 4.4mm.
