Dr.Manu.J.V. (Mumbai)
Master of All and Jack of None with a clinical presentation

Even though my first purchase from HPZ was 8 years back its the 1 st time iam writing a product review.

First and foremost its one of the most portable device out in the market I believe one to rule them all (Bluetooth,wired and DMP).

The ease of use is pretty straightforward and cool except to toggle between the albums in Media player mode is next to impossible without the edict app.

About the performance is great overall presentation with the balanced output (the 3.5 unbalanced in a strict no no)

From casual listening to an obsessive one is the impact i had for a person who call it a day by 11.30pm is still on the player with a Sundara connected with a Meze balanced at 1.00 am,so for me Shanling H2 is an absolute pleasure

Waiting for my Oriveti od200 from HPZ to reach in a day or two to try it out too!

Thankful to all on and off the screen at HPZ for bringing out the best to Us
