De-emphasis in DAC

It sounds like a high frequency roll-off filter... Many DACs have this kind of feature...

Are you loosing something? Yes, the difference in the frequency response between when it is off and on...

What ever sounds best to you is ok...  Whats a few dB among friends...

Quite a few CD’s were pre-emphised, especially from Denon they had rising HF to lower the play back noise, bit like Dolby.
But to play these without them sounding bright, your CD player needed to have auto de-emphasis circuit to make it flat again.

Bit more I think, maybe even 10db at the peak

AFAIK, the sole purpose of deemphasis was to reduce tape noise in analog recordings - almost never used today, since most of recordings are digital.  CD players have deemphasis built in and engage it automatically (CD contains deemphasis bit).

Thanks people, the thing here is that the Totem Acoustic Rainmaker are bright and shrill in some records, I use the de-emphasis with those records with the Burson Audio Swing DAC, it cuts Off high frequencies, that's all, the detail is the same in those records when I use de-emphasis.
