Nice, was actually hoping for something like this with this dac chip. Excited to hear more specs and price.

First impression seems very positive on Weibo. I guess the big difference is this one has streaming option?

 

[goodvibes]

Looks great. Which OS? Local streaming? Qobuz?

I think only Tidal, for now

Same OS as M5 Ultra, with support for Tidal Online only.

Reviewer on weibo said it has support to streaming from NAS/DLNA, is that correct?

Yes, that's basic function of our MTouch system.

So what exactly is it? Shanling product under different brand?
Design look strange at first look, volume knob at the bottom?

Thanks, I was not aware that is company with long history.

You can switch screen orientation by 90° steps, so can move it to top, or sides.

 

[pietro77]

Yes, but then marking on buttons are upside down so looks strange, but maybe it works in every day using.

I still slightly prefer the sound of Qobuz, even after Tidal improved some months back and finally dropped the ill conceived MQA.
