I have many DAPs (18) yes I have a problem. I'm a big fan of the M6 Ultra and its power but you are right I need to select the best synergy with iems to get the best out of it, but when you do it's up there with the Sony Nw-WM1A but with driving power.
nice discussion. i haven't really gotten into DAPs that much (yet, because let's be honest, that bug will catch too). I really like my HiBy RS6 with the Darwin architecture. It is chunky and not always suitable for on the go, so i use a shanling M0 for those occasions.
dedicated line outs on top? Don't you mean headphone outs? There is no dedicated line out that I can see. My question is, is there a line out at all? And also, thanks for the honest review. It helped me to know that this dap probably isn't the one for me.
Hm 4493 once my fav(dual configurations) but now its cx31988(single) , specialised towards bal output yet with single chips. WOW thought the 4493 - 4497 has stopped due to fire incidents?? How cum now Quad easily implemented? Pls elaborate sir.. Conclusions Hmm cayin is mo preferable. Peace!
Bro mine dacAmp is extincted Q5S TC (dualAKM4493 + dualTHX78aaa as amps modules) which u dun even ever heard frm n cant nowdays + 4pentodes ClassA = Heaven is it??.. But all dats desktop systems bra, when my OTG endgame system is same Q5S TC again extincted + fc6 = which heaven is this?? Untill i met dis cx31988 which is an upgrade frm cx31993 IF u knew that.. Just mirco OTG yet sounded deltaSigma + tubez.. Bra!.. Peace!
@@heeku_ the Hiby is cleaner more analytical and the Shanling is vocal forward warmer and smoother both are excellent but I prefer the Hiby for pure SQ between the two.
M6 Ultra + Sony IER-Z1R made me stop paying attention to what else is going on in the portable audio world. I love that rig!
Once you find synergy Oh boy it's wonderful 😊
The m6u has enough bass kick ?
Hi , great review.. Does this sound better than the ibasso Dx180 ?
Nope not to me it didn't.

Good choice nice player

The Headphone outputs would also serve as the Low outputs and are switchable in the setting.
Any real reason why one should ever buy one of these chonk boat anchors over a dongle on a phone? Its like 5x larger then my ipod from 2009
Yes, way better sound, more power, nothing hanging from the bottom. Daps are amazing
Better sound for me and frees up my phone when suffering porn simultaneously 🥺

Cuz u need 4x of those cheap cx chips to sound as good as 1x akm

Can i download my playlist from apple music to listen to it offline without a wifi connection? Thanks a lot
have u tried the hiby r6 pro ii and can share insights vs the shanling?
I owned the R6 Pro ii nice sounding player but sold it off because the controls sucks , and the battery was terrible.
@@tonedeafmonk
can u tell which one sounds better?

what's the problem with mids, it's eq after all
It presents mids forward not going to work for already mids forward gear
@@tonedeafmonk You can develop your thought because I don't really understand. I have M3U, M6U and in my opinion M3U has medium tones more forward.
Hi
Great review as usual
Do you think it's a good pairing with SR DTE900
I know you're a Big fan of these iem like me 😅
Thanks
Not really because the DTE900 is mid forward already and so is the M6U the two together might be too much or if you like that sounds then yes.
yes that was my fear, maybe I should go more towards ibasso or FiiO i think 🙏
