The only way is up.

Professional Audio Tuning
Equipped with the ESS Sabre ES9218P audio chip, UP2 inherits acclaimed audio quality of the popular Shanling M0 portable player. Offering high resolution, clear and powerful output with low output impedance, while being very power efficient.

Ultimate Connectivity
With support of LDAC, LHDC, aptX HD, aptX LL, aptX, AAC and SBC, it is possible for the Shanling UP2 to connect to any device, with the highest possible quality. Thanks to support of the LDAC, LHDC and aptX HD, Shanling UP2 can reproduce full resolution of audio files, including Hi-Res audio.

Bluetooth 5.0
Qualcomm CSR8675 Bluetooth chip assures the best connectivity, offering stable connection at longer distances, minimised latency and high resistance to any interferences. An integrated LED indicator in the UP2 shows the currently used codec at all times, making it easy to confirm if the highest possible quality is being achieved.

USB DAC
Connect the Shanling UP2 to your computer to use it as USB DAC/AMP, acting as an external sound card. Easy connection with any USB-C cable and without the need for additional drivers, just plug and play.

Precise Volume Control
Shanling UP2's volume control is split into 64 steps offering much more precise volume control compared with the limited 16 steps of most smartphones. Volume levels can be independently controlled both on the Shanling UP2 and the connected smartphone. All other functions are also controlled by the multifunctional wheel.

Cleaner Calls
With the high-quality Knowles SiSonic microphone and new 8.0 generation of cVc noise cancellation technology, your voice during calls will be clearer and easier to understand, even in the noisiest environments.
