The M9 is Shanling’s flagship DAP, and now it is getting all of its wonderful features ported to a more compact device. With the reduced price of $1,249, you get a 5-inch full HD screen, previously seen on their M8 model in a sleek wave pattern. It adopts advancements from the M9, including the single-piece aluminum inner body and the single-board integrated acoustic design.

The M7 is based around ESS Sabre ES9038PRO DAC. The flagship model of the ESS line, power-hungry 8-channel beast, and DAC. The ES9038 PRO is run in its current-mode operation, combined with a matching ESS ES9311 voltage regulator, a power circuit adapted from the M9, and their in-house developed I/V conversion stage. When paired with our OP + BUF amplifier architecture, which was further optimized for the M7, Shanling claims you are getting their best measuring portable player so far.
