Hi all,
I've just ventured into the world of dedicated headphone amplification with the NFB-5.2 from Audio-gd. As a newbie to this part of headphone audio, I need help please. The 5.2 has 9 different settings for filtering, but I'm having trouble knowing what to use. I'll be using the 5.2 via USB from my computer. Most of my music collection is FLAC ripped from CDs. I have a couple of 96/24 albums too.
According to the info on the page below, some filters won't support higher sampling rates. I gather I'll need to use the right filters to match 96/24 tracks, but my major confusion is understanding why I would want to create roll-off using a filter. Can anyone explain why I might use them and which ones do what?

I'll be having a play / experimenting with it shortly, but would really appreciate any knowledge you can drop on me!
