Don’t know why it took me so long to get around to trying it but my new favorite filter is xtr-lp-2s (DSD256/ASDM7EC).
It plays well with my M1 mini, but more importantly just sounds more organic and anolog to my ears than ext2 or gauss-long. I’m not sure if this has more to do with my DAC (Gustard X16), or my ears. Perhaps I just prefer long pre-ringing (I went into this thinking I preferred minimum phase variants and I’ve come to realize that I was mistaken).
