Thanks for your prompt reply. Maybe the synergy with your DAP and headphones is especially good and perhaps (I'm speculating here) that using a variety of other headphones would have shown more sound/musical advantage w/M2 with some of them.For the laptop / phone / M6 / PC, I've tried two different USB C cables and for the PC, two different USB A to USB micro cables. I've also used the M6 in USB DAC mode from the laptop via the same USB C-C cable where it sounds much the same as it does providing it's own digital input, so I am happy that the cables are not a significant factor. The cables are generic, nothing special.
I don't think there is anything wrong with the Mojo 2, it is excellent, but the M6 is punching so far above it's price point in so many ways. The Shanling Windows USB driver is not without issues mind you, but I never had the dropout into white noise with it.
Then again, I initially used Mojo OG with the supplied generic cable for a while but it wasn't until I bought a used Curious Hugo Link micro USB,
together with AQ Jitterbug that the sound blossomed to the really special musical performance that I continue to enjoy each day. I don't have the M2 yet and
haven't heard the USB-C connection to compare with my micro USB setup but it sounds like you've covered the bases!
