SHANLING MG20 1DD In Ear Headphones 1

The SHANLING MG20 headphones are designed with a focus on dynamic sound performance, incorporating modern materials and a thoughtful design to provide both exceptional audio quality and comfort during use.

The MG20 utilizes a dynamic driver featuring a diaphragm made from diamond-like carbon (DLC). This advanced material enables a broad frequency response, exceptional linearity, and minimal inertia, facilitating high-fidelity sound reproduction across diverse environments. As a result, the diaphragm effectively reduces distortion and responds swiftly to variations in the audio signal. The headphone casing is crafted from zinc alloy through five-axis CNC machining, ensuring both lightweight and robust construction. Weighing merely 5.6 grams, these headphones are nearly imperceptible when worn.

Furthermore, the internal architecture of the housing is designed to minimize distortion, thanks to its curved shape and the incorporation of metal materials. The tuning of the headphones is informed by the head-related transfer function (HRTF), which contributes to a natural and clear sound profile with minimal nonlinear distortion (under 0.05%). The audio output is marked by its neutrality and clarity, alongside a well-defined and layered soundstage. The MG20 comes with a detachable cable made from high-quality oxygen-free copper, allowing for easy replacement if needed. It is available in versions with a 3.5 mm jack and Type-C connector.

The Type-C variant features an integrated DAC that supports PCM 96kHz / 24bit, enhancing sound quality when connected to digital devices.
