Shanling M8T Digital Audio Player DAP Tube amplification 2xAK4499EX 2xAK4191 32bit 768kHz DSD1024 Bluetooth 5.0 Wifi
Shanling's M8T is a classy digital audio player with the distinctive feature of tube amplification, so you'll always have at hand the ability to enjoy the characteristic sound of this technology. Digital/analog conversion is handled by a pair of AKM AK4499EX/AK4191 chip combos, ensuring unparalleled authenticity while supporting signals up to PCM 32bit 768kHz and DSD1024. Furthermore, Shanling offers here a new version of its AGLO (Android Global Lossless Output) solution, ported and optimized for Android 13, ensuring compatibility with the majority of streaming applications.
Shanling M8T: Meticulous aesthetic
Shanling's M8T follows in the same aesthetic vein as the M9. It benefits from a CNC-machined aluminum body from a single block, offering a sophisticated, jointless design. This high-quality chassis is complemented by Sharp's 6-inch touchscreen with full HD resolution of 2160px x 1080px, offering vibrant color rendering.
Shanling M8T: AKM double combo
The M8T's conversion stage is based on a set of 2 combos of the famous AKM AK4499EX and AK4191 chips. This architecture, decoupling digital/analog conversion and Delta Sigma modulation, offers exceptionally precise rendering, and enables conversion of signals with sampling rates up to PCM 32bit 768kHz and DSD1024.
Shanling M8T: JAN6418 Tubes
Wishing for a sound reproduction characteristic of tube amplification. The M8T is distinguished by its amplification using JAN6418 power tubes. Almost unique on the DAP market, the M8T delivers a warm sound, so you can always have tube amplification in your pocket.
Shanling M8T: Transistor, Triode and Ultra-linear modes
Although tube amplification is the M8T's most unique feature, you can select an option to enjoy transistor-only amplification, giving you a more neutral, dynamic sound. Furthermore, with tube amplification, you can also choose between Triode mode for a warmer sound, and Ultra-linear mode for a smoother, more compact rendering.
Shanling M8T: A perfectly stable signal
To ensure signal stability, the M8T uses two KDS crystal oscillators, 90.3168MHz and 98.304MHz, coupled to the latest-generation FPGA developed in-house by Shanling.
Shanling M8T: Android 13
To ensure long-term compatibility with the vast majority of streaming applications, Shanling is offering an updated version of its AGLO (Android Global Lossless Output) solution for Android 13, enabling you to enjoy lossless signal processing while preserving user comfort.
Shanling M8T: Eddict Player
Furthermore, the M8T is compatible with streaming applications such as Apple Music, Tidal, Qobuz and Spotify, as well as DLNA and Airplay network protocols, allowing you to control it remotely via the Eddict Player app available on Android and iOS.
Shanling M8T: Extended compatibility
With an amplification power of 500mW at 32Ω single-ended and 1125mW at 32Ω balanced, and its three-level gain control, the M8T is compatible with the vast majority of headphones available on the market, including the most demanding such as planar magnetic headphones.
Shanling M8T: 8350mAh battery
Thanks to its massive 8350mAh battery, the M8T is capable of delivering the power demanded by its audiophile circuitry for up to 15.5 hours of uninterrupted single-ended or 13 hours of balanced listening. Furthermore, the M8T supports Quick-Charge 3.0 and Power Delivery 2.0, enabling fast charging at 18W.
Shanling M8T: Extensive connectivity
The M8T is no slouch when it comes to wireless connectivity, offering bidirectional Bluetooth compatible with LDAC, SBC and AAC protocols, as well as 2.4G/5G WiFi connectivity thanks to Qualcomm's WCN3980 module.
Shanling M8T: XMOS XU316
To enable you to use the M8T as a USB DAC, it has been fitted with an XMOS XU316 USB interface, supporting files up to PCM 768kHz and DSD512.
Shanling M8T: Qualcomm Snapdragon 665
Last but not least, the M8T is equipped with a powerful 8-core Snapdragon 665 processor from Qualcomm. This 11nm finely etched processor is accompanied by an Andreno 610 graphics GPU meticulously optimized for Android 13, guaranteeing optimum performance at all times.
