Sony SCD-1 Filters

Has anyone experimented with the SCD-1 filters with any interesting results?

Which filter setting would you recommend?

As the previous responders wrote, there is no such thing as "no filter" so there is no purist reason to pick any one filter over any other. Randy

"unmusical" was only in comparison to the others - not a statement about the CD player by the way. The fatuiging part may have had to do with his room, however, the other settings (in different ways) helped with that in his system.

I don't always use the SCD-1 for redbook playback, but it was interesting to compare and contrast the output via the different filters with the output of my redbook reference, the Simaudio Moon Eclipse.
