Over the years, we have seen a great evolution in the In-Ear Monitor category. Brands have always brought new and innovative driver configurations to bring something new to the table, but sometimes it’s a simple DD and BA combination hybrid setups that do the job. Today, we are welcoming the all-new Shanling Sono, a three-driver hybrid setup designed with a coaxial dual Dynamic driver and a high-performance BA driver combination on each side. Shanling as a brand is probably one of the oldest brands in the HiFi audio industry from China.

Shanling Sono has a dual-dynamic driver arrangement to accompany the BA driver. This coaxial driver setup houses a 6.8mm LCP diaphragm midrange driver and a 9.2mm bio-diaphragm Bass-frequency driver. Both the drivers work alongside a custom balanced armature driver unit that is tuned specifically for crisp high-frequency response. All these drivers work in harmony and produce a strong sound presentation that is high in resolution and crisp in detail. The dynamic drivers here adopt high-quality HCCAW voice coil. The pair has a strong magnetic assemble designed with a three-magnet structure that increases the sensitivity and also enables the drivers to have a smooth working environment. Shanling Sono delivers impressive clarity and a strong lower end which is complementing the other frequencies.

Sono has two different sound profiles. It is achieved using swappable nozzle filters on the pair. We have balanced sound tuning with the black ring nozzle and warm, bass-emphasized tuning with the Red ring nozzle filter. The pair itself has an exquisite build quality with premium zinc-alloy metallic ear shells. They are hand-polished to achieve a smooth, glossy finish. Shanling Sono has a replaceable cable design with 0.78mm 2-pin connectors. We have high-purity silver-plated single-crystal copper cable with 3.5mm termination. It’s a well-built cable with metallic components and gold-plated plugs and connectors.
