Experimenting with Roon digital parametric equalizer (digital vs analog tone control)

[1KW]

My McIntosh C2300 has tone controls which I have used in the past for certain recordings. I have been playing around with the parametric digital equalizer filter built into Roon Core software and am pleased to say this is a good alternative if your pre amp does not have tone controls. It is very easy to take the digital filter in and out for a/b comparison. Just set the frequency and raise or lower the gain. For low volume level listening I boost the bass 1.9 dB in roon parametric filter for a touch of low end ie loudness control .
