Don't worry, most of the people barely find the difference to the filtersi guess my ears are dead .. they all sound the same
what setting do you guys use for the low pass filter mode it came set on short delay sharp roll off, which setting sounds the best. i don't understand this setting
There is no real best setting for this, up to your personal preferences or theoretical approach.
I personally prefer sharp roll off on AKM DACs. Shanling default choice is short delay with either sharp or slow roll-off.
Really ideal to test it yourself or spend time online to study details of all the filters and concept of how DAC works(which is not that fun).
I would say that this chart from AKM is bit "questionable".i found this does this explain the ultra has one more setting low dispersion short delay which is not on this chart anybody know what this does

Are the filters only in play with the shanling app or also with Tidal and MQA?

If it was actually good when you bought it, guess what? It will still be good tomorrow.
Filters are affecting how PCM data are processed in the DAC itself, so it affects all the apps.Are the filters only in play with the shanling app or also with Tidal and MQA?
MQA files are of course different, as they work in special way with their own filter.

Received my Ultra.
It is very very nice.
I live that AKM sound best.
Roon does not seem to work on it, though. But that may not be the most valid use case.

Software team should have Roon fixed for our Android 10 players with next firmware update.Received my Ultra.

To my ears, at least on my Kann Max, sound differences re filters are “most” noticeable in terms of decay, resonance and treble sharpness. It is subtle, very much so, but can make a fine bit of crucial difference on certain iems.i guess my ears are dead .. they all sound the same
I assume your M6U is new. Give it some time, and if your iems are sufficiently revealing, you’ll likely be able to detect eventually.

Which is larger and heavier, the M6 Pro 21 or the new M6 Ultra? Witch is more powerful?

Different shapes, but ultra is slightly heavier. Ultra’s screen is 5” to 4.2” on pro 21. Power is even. I’ve never heard the m6 pro 21, so I can’t say about SQ and tuning differences.Which is larger and heavier, the M6 Pro 21 or the new M6 Ultra? Witch is more powerful?
Ultra:
127x77x18mm 263g Bal 720@32, SE 240@32
Pro 21:
133x71x17.5mm 244g Bal 760@32, SE 240@32
