Shanling - MW200

I came looking for a cable with a mic for my Tin Audio T4 IEMs. I was not expecting the icy precision of the T4 and the warm delivery of the MW200 to be a near perfect match. This combination has resulted in a paring that is greater than the sum of it's parts.

Rock sounds punchy and full bodied, put a grin on my face, it's a big sound worthy of the 80s metal rock scene. I'm no stranger to a plexi and 4x12 that's always by my side. This combo hit the sweet spot, it's been a while since I've heard headphones that tick all the boxes to deliver rock and blues as these do. I had no idea BT codecs had come so far.

With classical and jazz the soundstage and detail is delightful. Creamy warm, spacious, quick and sufficiently detailed to put the emphasis back on the music, but yet you are aware of the effortless delivery. The 3D layering with Andrew Manze playing Bach Concerto for Two Violin or Biber's Mystery Sonata are an absolute joy, you can focus on all of it and forget this is budget gear.

Conclusion, this MW200 with the T4 is overall a very musical combination for, I want to say casual listening while on the go, but in all honesty, ChiFi has come a long way and it's almost unfair how good this paring is, it gives my HD800 and BCL amp a good run for it's money, while that setup is analytical and percussive, the MW200 is warm and strongly emphasises the joys of music over the delivery, a refreshing change for me, back to what is important.

DAC/AMP, LDAC BT & Battery in this neck band package with it's musical talents is a no brainer. Well done Shangling, five stars.

I bought this DAC/AMP along with iBasso - IT00

Sound processing and output is outstanding

They support most of the hires codecs..

no connectivity issues so far

Cons :
The connecting leads to the IEMs are bent in the shape of ear lobe , may not be compatible with direct in ear type of earphones

The android app has limited functionality

Firstly thank you headphonezone for providing such a great product to India. Excellent packing by headphonezone and fast delivery.
One thing to note that Shanling MW200 is compatible with RHA T20 wireless because of rubber rings which is provided by Shanling mw200. We can use the Dolby Atmos Equalizer or any Music app Equalizer while using the LDAC but I would suggest do not use Equalizer until it's really necessary. I have used the Equalizer while using with RHA T20 earbuds as they are brighter iem but no need to tweak Equalizer while using with Fiio FD3 Pro iem.

PROS:
1. Seamless connection between two devices i.e Android phone and the desktop pc
2. Awesome sound.
3. Great looks.
4. Provided ring is helpful for perfect fit of the earbuds.
5. LDAC rang is much wider compared to Fiio BTR3k
6. Great mic

CONS:
1. Battery life is ok ok. With LDAC it gives 6-7 hours with 80% volume.
2. Wire is too long which is sometime affects the comfort because of its over the ear 👂 design.
3. MMCX connector is little bit bigger of Shanling MW200 and making discomfort to the ears.

I am pairing this with FiiO FH5S for bluetooth connectivity.

Pros: I have not any bluetooth 5 MMCX connectors with good quality other than MW200. Seamless connection. LDAC Support. Perfectly complements the FH5S. Even the microphone quality is awesome.

Cons: Sometimes I find frequent connection drops when it is connected to both my phone and laptop. Even if it is suited only for bent in the ear lobe shape, it is not a perfect fit.

The MW200 is a great bluetooth DAC/AMP. I am using this with my iBasso IT00 and it is sounding beautiful. Android phone users will enjoy LDAC codec which is used for streaming audio wirelessly in highest quality. I am using it with my OnePlus 7T Pro and with Dolby Atmos enabled songs are sounding pure bliss. The AKM chip is a powerful DAC/AMP and the songs sound clear and warm. Soundstage is also good. It responds beautifully to EQ tweaking.

One important feature which Shanling has forgotten to mention is that MW200 supports multi-point blutooth connection. I am able to connect to my Laptop and phone at the same time and the switching is seamless. I was surprised when I discovered this. Request Headphone Zone to check for this feature and update in the product page that this product supports multi-point bluetooth connection.

The android app needs to be improved. Overall an amazing gadget.

Excellent sound and good connectivity. Works as expected.
