I think you meant sample rate, not bit rate. Which player are you using? You did not specify that you are using ASIO, so I'd recommend that as your next step. You can configure Chord as the device in the output mode without it being bit-perfect, and I suspect this is the issue.

I cannot express how grateful I am for the help! I am too old and new at the same time

Forget about the filters. The real issue is that one of the best headphones on the planet, the HEK V2 may not be driven to its full dynamic potential by the internal amplifier of the Hugo 2 and since the RCA line out is not direct from the DAC any amplifier added to the chain will cause significant perturbations/distortion (as per Rob). I am now thinking that a different DAC with a true line out makes more sense to pair with the HEK V2 so that a really good headphone amp can be used. I am not a fan of the Utopia as it just doesn't have the air and open live 3D experience that the HEKV2 has.

I have read your post several times, and come to the conclusion that one of us is confused.

You know... pairing the Shanling M1 to the Mojo... gives me connection via BT 4.0/AptX to my phone. I have a MicroSD full of songs in the M1... looks like I can pretty much do almost everything the Poly does...
