Hi there,

I recently bought a Shanling M8, used a M15 before.
But still do not know the function of the lowpass filters.
does anyone know the effects of these filters?

-Sharp Roll-Off
-Slow Roll-Off
-Short delay Sharp Roll-Off
-Short delay Slow Roll-Off
-Super Slow Roll-Off
-Low Dispersion Short Delay

Hope someone has the ultimate answer

Thank you in advance.

Digital filter isn't something that can be explained in simple terms. Read this: http://nihtila.com/2019/10/18/dac-digital-filters-part-2-deeper-dive-into-ak4490-and-ak4493-filters/ (*difference DAC maker name their filters slightly different)

If it is too confusing - just try all of them and decide for yourself which suit your taste the best. If you can't tell the difference, well, just set it to anyone of them.
