DAC filters : What is the impact on sound?

All of these digital filters have some trade off. You find the one that to your ears sounds the most analog. To my ears, the big problem with digital from the beginning back in the 80’s was the preringing. We really didn’t know why at first, but something didn’t sound right on transients from cymbals, guitar strings etc. I grew up before digital. I played percussion. I had never in my life heard a sound before my stick actually hit the cymbal, or drum etc. Nothing in nature has a sound, before the event. But with digital, you get a pre sound. And to my ears, it sounded wrong and brain fatigue set in quickly at higher volume. So for many many years, I could only listen to digital at low volume. I saved the fun times for analog tape and vinyl. Well lots has changed, either my ears have accepted the digital sound or the dacs and filters have tamed the pre ring beast enough that I am happy. Its probably both. I do not think there is one right filter. It is the one that sounds right to you. The brick wall filter is the original, with glorius pre ring. And I just can’t stand it. I do like the default filter mostly. I seldom switch it off. I may play with them some time when I am very bored. But I will probably load a reel to reel tape instead.
