Shanling M1s - Compact Portable Player (Discontinued)

It was a rhetorical question
As well as about font, size - @Shanling , please, add an option to increase font size on M1s. There is an irony, M0 Pro is more friendly to my not too young eyes rather M1s.

They had the ability to change font size when Shanling was still using the Hiby OS but they don't seem to be able to add this feature with their MTouch OS at least to this point.

"The playback doesn't start (coming out of standby or after switching on). I have to restart the M1s sometimes 2 or 3 times for it to start (sometimes even more : 4 times today). I've tried with 2 (now 4) different memory cards and tried a reset (exfat, fat 32 & NTFS). This bug has been present for several firmwares (currently 2.5)."

Hi,

Any news?
All the micro SD cards work fine on my Shanling Q1.

Sorry, no update on this from software team.

In this case we would recommend reaching out to the seller, to get you a different unit.

My m1s get stuck at loading circle when searching for a song on Tidal. Pressing and holding the power button doesnt make it shutdown, the screen is stuck. What to do now? @Shanling
Keep pressing over 15s, taht should force shutdown.

Otherwise can just leave it sit and wait for battery to go dead.

@Shanling Just noticed. M1s is on Amazon! Really could have only been recent!

Hope the next firmware will be bugfixes and performance improvements, but its almost there!

I have over 50k files so no hope for media library, I only can browse memory card :rolling_eyes:
Could M1s be a bit more supportive in this case?

For example on Now Playing screen where it shows SD:/ location for current file.
If I could touch file path to be taken to that folder - it will be very useful.

Another thing to create playlist from folder when browsing.

Anyone living with having to use file browse all the time?

Immediate impressions:
  • V decent amount of power, for my IEMs at least
  • Great connectivity
  • Sounds good, but highs seem a bit sharp compared to my NX4, but may be perceived
  • Strange ergonomics - volume knob position awkward in both regular and flipped mode
  • USB C position on the side awkward for external DAC usage
  • No search function - pretty irritating
  • Double tap volume to wake makes screen flash on then turn off again - probs happens 30% of the time
  • Eddict SyncLink simply doesn't work for me - the app is pants
In the round, a pretty versatile little thing beyond some of these frustrations

Your IEMs might be a tad sharp. I had the M6 before and this M1s is a lot warmer and fuller sounding.

I actually wish it was even warmer... (the treble is too sharp for my taste)
Which iems are you using? I could listen louder across the board and it’s less stressful for my ears too.
And I don’t use EQ but you can set 3 profiles and slightly adjust it to your taste.

Using it with both Meze Rai Penta iems and Denon closed back 7200 (which is warm enough).
I would prefer not to use EQ to get the warmer sound with less sharp treble...
