asymmetric apodizing filter


I have the esoteric K01 and it offers the standard filters and the newer filter designed to reduce preringing. They surely sound different. I would like to learn more.

Do the asymmetric or apodizing filters come with sonic tradeoffs or theoretical tradeoffs? Do they compromise phase linearities?

Thanks

Bombaywalla,
I know it wasn't meant for me, but thats the glory of this forum. I recently bought a dual mono WM8741 DAC. This filter info is very informative...
Thank you,
Tim
Welcome Timlub - glad that you found the info useful. yeah, that's the beauty of forums - the replies are there for all to read & learn & comment.
the ps audio pwd and pwd2 have both minimum phase filter and asymmetric apodizing filter along with other combos. i found them very helpful/noticeable with some recordings and not so much with others. am yet to determine any pattern or why. i'm thinking that's why ps audio gives you 4 choices along with an auto mode.

some info towards the bottom of this write-up
