Shanling introduced three products at Shenzhen Shekou Sonic Day on 7 November 2026. The Shanling M10 flagship portable digital audio player uses four AKM AK4191 modulators and four AK4499EX DAC chips. Its release is scheduled for December 2026.

The M10 uses a Qualcomm QCS6490 octa-core processor manufactured on a 6nm process and supports a pure mode. Its six-inch touchscreen has a resolution of 2560 × 1440, while the CNC-machined copper-alloy chassis incorporates Shanling's AirFlow passive cooling system. The player also features a high-voltage direct-drive design and independent gain design.

Headphone output on internal battery power is rated at 1,300mW into 32 ohms. With an external power supply connected, the M10 has a quoted output of 2,300mW.

The SM3.3 flagship streaming DAC uses two Kunlun Pro R2R conversion modules containing 424 precision resistors specified to 0.01% tolerance. Its balanced analogue output stage uses silver-grid 12AT7 valves, and its power supply employs two R-core transformers. A tilting 2K touchscreen provides the interface for a customised streaming system supporting multiple applications and protocols. Availability is expected in late November 2026.

Each Dynasty hybrid in-ear monitor earpiece contains 15 drivers spanning five transducer technologies. The configuration combines one 10mm liquid-silicone dynamic driver, six Sonion balanced-armature drivers, two micro-planar magnetic high-frequency drivers, four Sonion electrostatic drivers and two bone-conduction units. The earpieces use brass frames and huanghuali wood faceplates, with traditional Chinese chilong motifs incorporated into the decorative design. Dynasty is expected to launch in China in spring 2027, with its international release scheduled for 2027.
