This device supports Wi-Fi 6, features built-in AirPlay 2, and includes an Ethernet port for straightforward network connectivity for users who prefer a wired connection.

Bluetooth 5.2 is included, offering support for both LDAC and aptX HD. The device features optical and coaxial inputs and outputs, while providing an analog signal through RCA and XLR connections.

Additionally, it is equipped with an I2S digital output utilizing FPGA technology (via HDMI), which ensures compatibility with ten different external DACs. A USB DAC is also available through the USB-C port.

As a headphone amplifier, it includes a 6.35mm output jack with various gain levels: Low Gain at 0.79mV@32Ω (19mW@32Ω), Medium Gain at 2.4V@32Ω (180mW@32Ω), High Gain at 5.7V@32Ω (1015mW@32Ω), and High Gain at 6.3V@300Ω (132mW@300Ω).

Utilizing an upgraded 64-bit ARM Cortex CPU, the system of SM1.3 was developed from the ground up for the new generation of Shanling Streamers.
