Provides crisp clean highs. · L SLOW: Linear Phase (Slow Roll-Off) A low group delay and symmetrical input response with less ringing than `Linear-phase fast roll-off'. It offers punchier bass than `Linear-phase fast roll-off', with clean highs. (Default) · M FAST: Minimum Phase (Fast Roll-Off) This offers minimal pre-ringing. It is usually preferred for imaging and sound stages. It offers no aliasing in the frequency domain and stronger bass than `Linear Phase', with clean highs. · M SLOW: Minimum Phase (Slow Roll-Off) A Non-Symmetrical filter designed to minimise pre-ringing. It offers a strong punchy bass with a good transient attack. · FAST: Hybrid (Fast Roll-Off) This is the combination of `Linear-phase' and `Minimum-phase'. It offers a fast transient attack, strong punchy bass and crisp highs.
