Has anyone connected M6 pro to an amplifier with Y cable like this?

I don’t know wich output to chose...
jack 4.4 or 3.5 or USB-c?

Well, it depends what amplifier you want to use.

3.5 to RCA is basic cable and there is no problem in using it with RCA in on amplifiers.
If your amplifier have balanced inputs, 4.4mm to XLR cable would be better (maybe just reach out to the amplifier's designer, what's their opinion on using grounded/ungrounded 4.4/2.5mm connector, so we do not repeat the Woo Audio WA11 situation).

USB-C to RCA, you could use it, but it would mean that all DAC processing is done by some small chip on that cable, at which point all the DACs in M6 Pro would be useless.

Currently we are not working on update to Android 9. Can't say if or when it will come.

This is rather unfortunate to hear the lack of future software development.


Quick recommendation to Shanling on the leather case, please place some sort of bracket, or strap, on the top of the case, as the M6 Pro slide outs pretty easily, once the leather wears/warms up after a few weeks. Basically since the top of the M6 pro is already completely exposed in the leather case, coupled with the soft metal, I somehow already have a nick in the top of my device. Hope it helps someone else out.

Total agreement, yesterday my M6 pro slided out and got a mark on the corner... What:triumph::triumph::triumph::triumph::triumph::triumph::triumph::triumph::sob:

Is it possible to rollback from firmware 1.3 to 1.2 by flashing?

On firmware 1.3, set the Google Play store the same as on 1.2?

We have no tools to downgrade firmware on M6 Pro. Can I ask, why would you like to go back?

After update, you only need to install patch, other steps shouldn't be needed.

I asked about the rollback for the sake of interest. Before moving on to 1.3.
Perhaps there is a different version of the patch than the one listed on page 11? It was just that on firmware 1.3 I had to do the same for the Google store to work as on firmware 1.2. Also register through a third-party resource. Installing the patch without further action did not lead to anything.

On firmware 1.3, periodically in standby mode, if the player lies with the headphones connected, then after a while you take it, turn it on - there is no sound, the playback slider moves. The headphones and all connections are working properly. It is treated with a reboot.

I encountered an annoying issue on the latest firmware. I connected the device to my laptop - open the SD card - deleted some albums - clicked library update - disconnected the device, and when I checked, the albums still showing in the device. So I deleted the albums manually from M6 Pro.

BUT, when I connected M6 Pro to my laptop again, the albums that I deleted before, magically appears again LOL

Are you using default Shanling Music app or some third party app?

Interesting. Did you use Mac or PC? And are you able to replicate this with file on internal memory?
