Shanling / SONO-BL

New colors are now available for Shanling SONO. Triple hybrid earphones with a coaxial dual diaphragm design and a customized BA driver that uses two types of diaphragms: biocellulose diaphragm and liquid crystal polymer diaphragm.

■Bringing original ideas and designs to life
・Coaxial dual dynamic design
・Biocellulose diaphragm
・Liquid crystal polymer diaphragm
・Triple magnetic circuit design
・HCCAW (copper clad aluminum wire) high quality voice coil
・Customized BA driver by a dedicated engineer
SHANLING's new entry model, ``SONO,'' was developed by employing the various design techniques that SHANLING's engineers have cultivated through past product development and the tuning curve that is the benchmark for flagships.

■Two types of diaphragms are used in a coaxial design.
Biocellulose diaphragm & liquid crystal polymer diaphragm are designed with coaxial dual diaphragm design.
SONO is designed with a coaxial dual diaphragm structure in which two types of diaphragms are responsible for the low-mid range, and by skillfully matching them with the coaxial structure and special crossover, the frequency bands of each diaphragm are smoothly connected, achieving a sound with a sense of unity.
These earphones are designed to deliver high performance by reproducing smooth, mellow, and comfortable low frequencies and majestic, naturally elegant midrange expressions.
In addition, by pursuing static and dynamic performance during silence, which leads to high-frequency expression and resolution, we have ensured high control performance in the high-frequency range and enhanced the reproducibility of the atmosphere and reality.

■Triple magnetic circuit design
SONO adopts triple magnetic circuit design.
The driver unit, which is responsible for the low/mid range, uses an internal and external dual magnetic circuit structure to improve sensitivity and response performance in the mid-low range.The mid range unit is designed with an internal magnetic structure, allowing the magnetic circuit to be used more efficiently within the limited space of the small cavity.
This triple magnetic circuit design provides a moderate attack feel and improved responsiveness.

■HCCAW high quality voice coil
The voice coil uses HCCAW (copper clad aluminum wire), a type of lightweight composite material that is mainly made of aluminum and aluminum alloy and has excellent corrosion resistance and light weight.
By adopting the HCCAW voice coil, it is possible to provide high quality sound with excellent resolution and little distortion.

■Customized high-frequency BA driver Sophisticated high-frequency expression
``SONO'' is equipped with a customized high-frequency BA driver that meets strict standards by SHANLING engineers.
This highly polished BA driver uses a smooth tuning curve in the high range, which is the standard for flagship models, and is able to express higher resolution, expressive high range, and smooth and rich high range overtones.

■Uses two types of sound filters
Equipped with two types of replaceable sound filters, you can change them according to your preference.
・Balance filter (black silicon ring)
This is an all-round default filter for this unit that brings all bands together in a well-balanced and natural manner, allowing you to enjoy a wide range of music genres with excellent resolution.
・Ambience filter (red silicon ring)
This filter makes the low range richer and the details of the sound thicker, allowing you to enjoy a voluminous low range and rich sound field expression.

■Beautiful design created with precision craftsmanship
The cavity of ``SONO'' is manufactured by casting alloy material, detailed design processing is performed using high-precision CNC engraving technology, and then polished by hand.
Using delicate and sophisticated processing techniques, SONO is produced with a glossy and elegant design that brings out the beauty of the material to its fullest.
The timeless metal body, which reflects the light and expresses the beauty and romance of a diamond, will become a part of your collection.

■Replaceable cable design
The replaceable cable design allows you to freely change the cable to match the connected device and control the sound, and by replacing the cable when it deteriorates or breaks, you can use it for a long time.
In order to bring out the original characteristics of ""SONO"", there is no compromise in the attached cable, and we have adopted a 0.78mm 2Pin cable that ensures high fidelity by applying a shield that effectively blocks external noise.

■Small and lightweight design based on the latest ergonomics
``SONO'' was designed to be small, not bulky, and not heavy, and was designed as an earphone that can be used easily and easily.
Each earbud weighs only 8.6g, making it lightweight and comfortable for long periods of use.

■Hi-Fi grade cable as standard
The included special cable uses a 32-core single-crystal copper-silver-plated wire, and has a soft and slender cable design that is easy to handle.It is a high-quality cable that is individually manufactured by hand, with careful attention to the plating and metal parts of the plug.
High-quality, flexible, and easy-to-bundle cables deliver high-quality sound in a compact package.

■High-resolution audio certification obtained by Japan Audio Association
Playback frequency band: Supports wideband playback from 16Hz to 40,000Hz, and has been certified as ""High Resolution Audio"" based on the Audio Association's High Resolution Audio Playback Regulations.
Wideband playback allows you to reproduce the vividness of instruments and vocals, as well as the finest sound details such as glossy expressions.
