Shanling UA4 Dongle DAC
With UA4 Shanling combined all the favourite features from our previous UA models, added in a brand-new ESS DAC, and priced it to be extra competitive in this quickly growing market of ultra-compact USB DACs
Shanling understands their users demand more controls directly on the DAC, so the UA4 comes with a 0.87-inch display, providing information on current playback and quick access to a range of settings. Helping with this is a trio of buttons, that not only serve for menu navigation but can be configured to control the playback, hardware volume, or software volume (functions can differ depending on the paired digital source).
The audio circuit utilizes Shanling’s favorite dual Ricore RT6863 headphone amplifiers for balanced output and up to 211 mW @ 32 Ω of output power. This time paired with a brand-new ES9069Q DAC from the latest generation of ESS DACs. Tuned by highly experienced engineers, with an extra focus on the clean and hiss-free output for all the high-efficient earphone users.
