I'd be interested in hearing John's reasoning behind recommending #3. I did not show the plots for #3, and, it looks like my ZIP file is corrupted (sorry, will fix soon).This is awesome! Thank you very much for doing it! - So for us less technical folk would you say that the best filter to use is #7 or am I missing something here? (John seems to say #3 is best).
IIRC, there was quite a bit more pre-ringing in #3 than #7. I would say that the frequency response and extension is the best for #3, but my hypothesis is that time-domain differences have a greater impact on perceived sound quality than small differences in amplitude response, especially above 12 kHz. I could be totally wrong, but this seems to correlate well with personal subjective preferences.
Edit: With my zip file now working, here's what I see for Mode 3 on the D90SE:
So, definitely more pre and post-ringing than Mode 7. Again, I confess that I have only hypothesised that there's a correlation between pre/post-ringing and personal preference. I'd love to study this further, but on paper, Mode 7 / H-FAST "looks" better.
