What does "ships within 24/48 hours" mean?

In a nutshell, ships within 24/48 hours basically means that your product will be shipped out or dispatched from our warehouse within 24/48 hours after placing the order. It also indicates that the products are readily available at our warehouse and once we receive your order, we dispatch it out at the earliest either on the same day or the next working day depending on when you’ve placed your order.


What it does not mean:

A lot of our customers assume that it means their order will get delivered to them within 24/48 hours, but that’s not what it means. For an order to reach you, it can take anywhere up to 3-4 business days, depending on which part of India you are placing an order from.

EXPECTIONAL PERFORMANCE AND JUST BUILTLIKE A TANK

Shanling UA1plus delivers a really decent amount of power and extremely clean and distortion free audio at this price point also with a detachable cable which is really surpricing.

We’re delighted that you loved the product! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

Gratitude for Guiding My Audiophile Journey

Dear Team at Headphone Zone,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude and share some thoughts following my recent purchase of the Shanling UA1 Plus through your platform. More than just a transaction, this experience—like every one I've had with Headphone Zone—has been part of an ongoing journey of discovery, and for that, I am truly thankful.

My first step into the world of in-ear monitors began with the KZ CCA C12 a few years ago. Since then, I’ve experimented with a wide range of products from brands like JBL, Skullcandy, Sennheiser, Philips, Sony, and even Apple’s AirPods Pro. While each had its own appeal, it was only through your guidance that I came to understand what true audio immersion could be.

Your recommendations led me to Audio-Technica and into the finer aspects of IEMs. And now, with the Shanling UA1 Plus, you've opened the door to the world of DAC/AMPs—an element I didn’t realize I was missing in my mobile audio setup, despite having invested nearly a lakh in gear. The difference is night and day.

I’ve since ordered the KZ KEX Pro for temporary use, as I continue building toward my next goal: a planar IEM like the Letshuoer S12 Pro. Each product you suggest brings not just improved sound, but a better understanding of what to listen for and why it matters.

In every sense, you have been more than a retailer—you’ve been my teacher. There’s little I can do to repay the depth of knowledge and joy you've brought into this passion of mine, but I remain deeply grateful.

With warm regards and sincere thanks,
Rajadurai M

We appreciate your thoughtful review so much! It’s a pleasure to know you’re enjoying the product—thank you for your support!

Pretty neutral dac, small factor easy to carry around

Hi there! Thank you for your feedback on the Shanling - UA1 Plus.

My first dongle dac and it's awesome

Been using them for almost a year now and must say, it's one of the best dacs at this price if not the best. The sound it produces is peppy and musical, with good amount of detailing and instrument separation. Was able to hear all those instruments for the first time in all my favourite songs which I never heard before, it's a kind of magic. Best for someone with very tight budget but wants to explore into the world of decent and cheap dongle dacs for the first time.

My First but Best DAC

As a beginner into the audiophile world, I wanted to tread slow without spending too much but also looking for a quality listening experience. Shanling UA1 Plus did not disappoint me at all. In fact, I think this is the best DAC in this price range. The reason I would say that is because of it's balanced sound output. To test it's quality, you must try an IEM connected directly to your music source and give it a listen first. Then connect this DAC and give it a listen. You will immediately see a huge difference in the quality of the audio. This is difference is apparent even if you listen to music on YouTube - not that I'd recommend listening to music on YouTube. I've used it with to IEMs so far (CCA PLA13 and TruthHear Hexa) and it has done a great job with both. Highly recommended.

Hi there, thank you for your review of the Shanling UA1 Plus! Happy listening!

My first DAC

I discovered that music can be heard with such clarity, due to Shanling UA1 plus. Never heats up. The frugal power consumption needs a special mention. Will surely recommend. Thanks Headphonezone for the fast order processing and delivery.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the Shanling UA1 Plus!
