Coverage note. Speaker Ranking currently covers 4 Shanling models across headphones. These are the products in our database, not a complete list of everything Shanling makes.

What this page covers. The Shanling models ranked here span headphones, including Shanling Tino, Shanling ME500 and Shanling ME200. Use each model’s category position to compare it with alternatives of the same size and use case.

This page lists all 4 Shanling speakers ranked on this site across headphones. Each model is shown in the category where it competes, with its current rank and the size of that ranking.

Use the category position rather than the brand name alone: speakers from the same manufacturer can perform very differently by size, price and product family.

Ranked #51 of 297 in In-Ear Headphones - Shanling Tino: $23.99 Amazon eBay

Shanling Tino ranking card

Pros: Five squig.link measurements give it a preference score of 80.8 with 1.37 dB of deviation, and its dual dynamic drivers keep sub-bass within a fraction of a dB of target to 30 Hz. A 1.4 dB bass lift adds warmth while the upper mids and presence stay within about half a dB of target, so vocals sound natural. At 113 dB sensitivity and 16 ohms it gets loud from any phone, and it shares its rating with the Moondrop Marigold and DUNU Kima Classic.

Cons: A 5.2 dB dip near 10.6 kHz and treble about 1.2 dB under target trim some sparkle from cymbals and ambience. A 4 dB peak at 8.1 kHz can occasionally emphasize sibilance, and there is no built-in mic.

Ranked #193 of 297 in In-Ear Headphones - Shanling ME500: $269.00 Apos Audio eBay

Shanling ME500 ranking card

Pros: A one dynamic plus two balanced armature hybrid with a preference score of 69 in crinacle’s measurement and a balance that leans very slightly bright rather than warm. It rates higher than the cheaper Shanling ME200, and at 18 ohms and 111 dB sensitivity it is easy to drive from a phone.

Cons: An average deviation of about 2.8 dB from target means some frequency bands still stand out. The Fearless Audio Shangri-la rates clearly higher for a little less money.

Ranked #211 of 297 in In-Ear Headphones - Shanling ME200: $179.00 Apos Audio eBay

Shanling ME200 ranking card

Pros: A one dynamic plus one balanced armature hybrid with a preference score of 66 in crinacle’s measurement and a gently warm balance. It weighs only 6.3 g per earpiece, and at 16 ohms and 111 dB sensitivity it plays loud from any phone.

Cons: Its response deviates about 2.7 dB from target on average, so it is not especially even. The wired Sennheiser IE 40 Pro rates higher for less money.

Ranked #236 of 297 in In-Ear Headphones - Shanling ME700: $559.00 Apos Audio eBay

Shanling ME700 ranking card

Pros: A one dynamic plus four balanced armature hybrid with a preference score of 62 in crinacle’s measurement and a warm leaning balance. At 18 ohms and 106 dB sensitivity it plays loud enough from a phone, and each earpiece weighs just 6.8 g.

Cons: Its response strays about 2.9 dB from target on average, so tonal balance is less even than on higher rated in-ears. The HiBy Crystal 6 earns the same rating for less money.
