roll-off filter. It is the most common type of
digital filter and is the most accurate and neutral acoustically.

roll-off filter. The length of the pre-ringing is shorter
and more consistent than the length of the post-ringing which is more like
musical instruments.

Each filter has an objective (measurable) and subjective (audible to most) affect
on the sound. We encourage people to audition all three filters to determine
the one that sounds the best to them. Most people will experience the
differences in high-frequency reproduction

heard. There is no “right” or “wrong” answer here, its all about personal

uses a high-quality analog resistor ladder in conjunction with a digital
audio attenuator to ensure optimal performance over the entire volume range.
There may be some clicking sounds from inside the unit when the relays switch
as well as some audible noise through the speakers or headphones at certain
level changes. This is normal and expected behavior for this type of volume
control and will not cause any harm.
