Filter settings on Sony SCD XA777ES

I never used them after playing around with them a little bit at first. (I'm probably going to be kicked out of the audiophile club for that offense...)

Turn off the digital output if using analog out Otherwise, as was said, little if any diffs as they apply to info at and above 50K.

the other two filters 'Standard' and well, I forget the tother one, Optional?, did make a diff in the sound stage presentation in my system. I always went with "Optional" with the high frew filters off.

Turning off the display did more to quiet the presentation than did messing around with the high pass filtering. That was noticeable. Marginally, but surely noticeable. Try it.

try 'em all... if you hear a diff for the better, super. If not, so what?

Different footers, and power cables did more for mine than any of the filters did.

Good luck.

Thanks, That first response is very funny. I like it!! Yes they do sound different. The optuional is more focused but it seems like it also may make the stage bigger which goes against what the manual says. What are your thoughtsa on the unit as a CD player??? It seems to me a person would have to go quite a ways up to top it.
